a group in the US is putting an RB26DETT and AWD drivetrain into an S14, so if you put your mind to it, and have the $$$ to back it up, then it should be possible. But yeah, converting a RWD cef to AWD is a bit of a waste of time, when you can already buy AWD ceffy chassis from factory. There's heaps of em in the snowy/mountain areas of japan. As for AWD R31... hmmm nice idea, but isn't the Nissan Langley 4WD GT pretty much the same?

duuuude... if you had done that colour scheme the other way around you could have so easily made it look like a japanese police car. My dream is to one day paint half a black R32 white or a white R32 black and sticking police decals and the lights on it for shits n giggles. That still looks good though... reminds me of a phantom roof look. Although I reckon panda looks are better off left to AE86 fanboys.

hmm dosen't seem to affect firefox. Will look into it straight away

we = guys at j-spec. lol they're not GTRs. both the widebody skylines are GTSt's. And I've never owned an auto (cefpt for my old man's ceffy). SIF own an auto skyline!!!! it was a GTS though, but sold that a while ago. no the rims aren't works... r33 has kakimoto rims, r32 has SSR vienna's, and lexus has fabulous.

we've got 17"x13" on the kakimoto widebody r33, 18"x12" on the widebody R32, and 20"x12" on the widebody lexus yes... we love our widebodys. I think 10.5" is the widest you could fit under standard rolled guards, even then you'll be hanging out a lil. All depends on the offset you get as well... no point getting a kilometer of "omg fully sick uleh dishhhhhhh" if it rubs on your suspension and inner guard.

have you got the door pins (things that hold the hinges in place)? can pick up.

you do realise there's no seatcovers available on the market that fit skylines right? only poxy generic ones that fit grandad's camry. hence why people want seatcovers that fit perfectly, regardless of leather or not. trim on factory seats are attached to the seats/foam etc, and is a PITA to remove... maybe try and get some off wreckers and send them to have templates made up?

AWD ceffys have a different chassis to the RWD ones (just like GTS4's have the same chassis as GTR's and not GTSt's), so their suspension geometry is also accordingly different

got a pair of 6.5" kevlar's in the back of my ceffy... they're pretty good for their size and a great plug in OEM replacement. DIY guide here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=98021

We run Pirelli P-Zero's. $800 a pop AFAIK there's R32 and R33 kaki widebody kits, but not R34 from memory.

I don't think he was referring to you particularly

sif pay it. make em show you original invoicing etc.

BTW for guys in sydney, if you want I can pick up your seat covers and bring them up with me to Syd when I drive up in 3 weeks to save you guys $50.

15 year old import = no need to install side repeater SEVS/CPA scheme compliance = need to install side repeater depending on engineering data used to get compliance. the reason for this is when the GTR was sold locally as an amalgamation model, it was deemed that at one point on the side you couldn't see the front or rear indicators, creating a blind spot, so a repeater was installed. So it is required of subsequent skylines complianced under SEVS or CPA that they match the original GTR's (hence why they also snip the wires to the inside tail lights). But then it seems only SOME compliancers used this data, others used engineering data that proved that side repeaters weren't required. So to be pulled up for having no side indicators require the issuing officer to have a firm grasp on compliance rules and know how to identify a 15year old import from a SEVS car, and also what engineering data was used by the compliancer. In short, piss em off.

how long are you prepared to wait? I have one on mine, and I'll be changing bodykits in about 2 months. Its fibreglass, but so are all GTR style front bumpers that fit GTSt's. Original GTR bumpers have a nasty flex on em which leave gaping holes neat the headlights. Also has N1 ducts. Has a small paint fade (10c piece size) in front of the driver side headlight. pic of car with bumper on (funnily enough a black GTS4 as well):

You people make me sick. There's peadophilia, impotency, beastiality and incest rife in the stagea community.... and this thread is proof.

I'll take a set for an R32 GTSt in black with red double stitching (think that's standard)... plus the extra material for the door and other bits n pieces (might be extra, but put me down for it).

from http://www.towbarfactory.co.nz NISSAN CEFIRO 1990 to 1994 SEDAN Vehicle Chassis No: A31 Towbar Serial No: 175 TB Code: NIA31 Tow Weight (Non-Braked): 500 Tow Weight (Braked): 1500 might be an avenue.

Well now that I don't have access to Victorian tradeplates, I can't slap it on the ae86 to drive it to track days n shit, so I need to tow the fcuker around... I can either molest the R32 or the A31, and being a family car the ceffy's gonna get the chop. Plus sometime down the track the widebody kit's goin on the R32 (eventually... lol) so I don't really want to have to chop it up to accomodate a towbar. As the 86's a light rusty POS, it'd be a max of 1200kg (allowing 1000kg for the car and wheels and 200kg for the trailer). Can a RWD cef handle towing something like this? Does anyone have a towbar on their cef? if so can you post some pics of the bar and where it mounts on the chassis? Also places where you can get em done, prefabbed kits if you know of any and costs if possible.

meh, I have a nissan engine in my toyota... it goes better than it would with a toyota engine. plus it makes all the ae86 fanboys blow chunks (apparently its sacreligious or some shit), which is pretty amusing. One of these days I'll get a 1m square size sticker that says "CA18DET inside" on my bonnet.

aforementioned turning sign...

After having won such prestigious awards like "Best Non-Line" at the SAU VIC show and Shine, the J-Spec Widebody Lexus LS400 is up for sale. True, its very good at macking the bitches (we've had phone numbers given to us by soccer mums while driving around in it... really wierd... don't ask) but a new demo car is in the wings and its time to let the old bird go. I'll even include the "Do not overtake turning vehicles" signs I put on the rear bumper from time to time to the winnar. The best way to describe it as one of its appreciators at a car show put it is "DAAAYUM! That's a big bitch!" Without further ado... the auction: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Lexus-LS400-C-Type-...emZ290002511691 This thread's not really a "for sale" ad (coz I know none of you guys are nuts enough to wanna try and drive this on the road)... but I'd like to hear what comment you guys have on the car.

Come on fellas... at least this plate is somewhat remotely clever, as opposed to stuff like "BLUR34" and "REDR33" which states the bleeding obvious unless you had a severe colourblindness and shape recognition problem.
