Well heres a few pics of my car completed! Still have some cosmetics to do like tint, new seats, put my cage back in etc but essentially all the body is done! I decided to stick with the factory Diamond Black - to keep it pimp - and easy to repaint bumpers hehe. Here is some shots straight off the gun. Its certainly come along way from being what it was straight from J back in late 2004.

I whacked on the Final Konnexion body kit with M Sports 25mm Fenders. I rolled the rear guards out about 14mm and I think Im going to space my 18x9.5s out about 15mm and put some camber in. The skirts sit about 2 inches lower than the chassis rails hence my ride height is a bit more than Id like. Ive spaced out 18x8.5s upfront by 20mm upfront too to firstly clear the coilovers but also to fill the guards. I had to raise the car up about 12mm at the front because my tyres started eating fibreglass... but now I dont scrape the front bar at all... a good compromise!

I have attached a preview but the rest are at http://www.sido-takushi.com/paintnpanel/finalk

It cost me $2200 for the fibreglass... all genuine parts... $3k for Panel Beating (you'd understand why if you saw the car... but my pic above can give you a hint) and $3.5k for the paint job. Im fairly happy with it... but it sure did cost alot!

Yo Jai!

That looks sik! Well done dude - the long haul is finally rewarding. Motor plans?

Who did you bring in the FK kit through? I have FK skirts/rear bar on my 32 but unfortunately have damaged one of the skirts and am trying to bring in another?

Cheers,

Lyndon

Thats really very very nice. Really not keen on big kits, but I think this is just so well done it looks good.

Ride hight is fine too. Awesome man. Well done.

Dark red leather interior would top it off hey :P

Very the fat... Good too see something other than uras. Who did you get the kit from? Might check what they have for laurels... as that seems a pretty good price :) Ride height looks ok.. You might start ripping of bits of glass if you go much lower

If ur still waiting for that Taxi click on my sig... They should be able to help ^_^

Um I got C-Red in WA to source it for me. www.c-red.com.au

I was told it was a genuine kit although it did take alot of man hours to make it fit up properly... so Im not sure... although I paid good money for it.

If it was a genuine then it should have had the final k stamp on the inside of the kit :(

Yeah all the body parts had the old school Final K logo stamped on fibreglass and layed under the top layer of glass... but it cost me $1k in labour to make it all fit... had to cut and tuck the bumpers as they were about 10mm too wide on each side!

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
