The reason some cars with blue/purple bulbs LOOK brighter is because they have halogen headlight reflectors which reflect more light up in the air rather than down at the road. The stock z headlights are some of the best out there, don't mess with them.

Headlights, please dont go past 6000k...those blue headlights look ricey. Not to mention they use 4300k because it produces the most visible light to humans. Anything higher than 6000k and you're sacrificing visibility for the sake off looking too fast too furious.

I thought human sensitivity was focused about 5500K?
