lighting issues

hey i bought new headlight housings and i needed to buy bulbs for them. i have an 87' and the lights are not bright at all. to put it in perspective a flashlight at work is brighter... the housings i replaced had the same set up, the original lights were the ones where you cant remove the bulb. the bulbs i have tried are the sylvania 4000k and 4100k H4 bulbs.... at first i thought it might be the housings cuz the reflective part is black but the silver reflective part was the same brightness. my next idea is the wireing is messed up somewhere but i hope its just the wrong kind of bulb.

Releasing this thread so that the 2ndgen guru's who walk these halls can take a look and maybe provide some insight.

But at 71 posts, you really need to consider transitioning to the regular tech boards and start doing serious research on all the info that is in there.

You ain't exactly new anymore.

Since it was a new thread being created in the New Member RX-7 Tech boards, it didn't just pop up like a normal thread. It went to the Moderated Threads board where it has to be manually released into the board for public consumption. You didn't notice a lag between the time you hit Submit New Thread to the time it actually appeared?
