Retrofitting is about the best option you have. The advantages are:

1) You can customize your lights to suit (black out reflector bowl or add halo rings etc)

2) Very cost effective compared to buying taiwan sheit for $500 - $600 USD before shipping and taxes

3) You use back your original headlights so you retain perfect fitment

4) Light output is much better and you get a sharp projector cut off

5) You can use a projector that uses D2S bulbs so you can use high quality German Philips HID bulbs

Check out Triniretrofits

I did my car there a few years ago and so did many people with higher end cars.

I really can't think of any disadvantages other than having a cracked or pitted plastic lens which would make the light a bit ugly.

Thanks bro! Will definitely hit them up to see. It's just my headlights started getting dull and scaly, so wanna make sure i can sort that out if i retrofit...

Yeah a good polish would make the lens look like new but make sure you seal it off with a protectant to prevent the plastic from getting back dull too quickly...

Fellas, timing belt and water pump will be changed this weekend.

Is there anything special in timing the 4G18 engine? Any complications? Any procedure to follow?
I was asked this by a padna of mine who works with BMW. He will be doing the work.

Single cam engines are a breeze. Just make sure the timing marks on the crank amd cam match the marking on the block.
Even easier mark the tooth and block with chalk before u remove it make sure the both marks line up before reassembly and u set

[Dave]

When doing timing change all oil seals one time.

Thanks Dave. Those oil seals would be camshaft and crankshaft seals?

Noted. Thanks cinco.

[Dave]

Maybe oil pump and balance shaft if so equipped

Hearing a noise like old metal while driving up hill and sometimes on flat as well anyone ever know what it might be

[fras]

4G18 injectors are saturated (low impedance)?
How much cc?

Your engine could be pinging. Causes are wrong or bad quality gas. If you are using super, try premium. Look on the gas tank lid to see the required octane rating of gas you should be using.
If you are using the correct octane of gas, try filling up at newer gas stations that have double filtered gas.








Timing belt, water pump, spark plug seals, gaskets, cam and cranks seals changed on the weekend. Will post pics of parts used, prices of parts and where you can purchase them at a later date.

I changed my back shocks about a year ago. $1200 installed at Frankie's Mechanical Shop, Ramlal Trace Ext., Bejucal. He supplied KYB shocks. Working very good up to his day. 672-4809.
