Hi guys,

I was having a chat to some guys that specilise in import & custom body kits, & they said that they could take some moulds of my body kit & start manufactoring them, if they get sufficiant interest.

They also said they may be able to make a kit similar to the MASA kit for about 1/2 the price.

Carbon fibre bonnets/gaurds would be no trouble either.

Regards,

Jeff

<<<< Thats the kit in my avatar.

prices would be around the same as what you'd pay for a good quality kit for a commodore/falcon/skyline/supra. so about 600-800 for the front bar, 200 each for side skirts, & 600-800 for the rear, all un painted & without lights.

They just said that it would be no trouble to do C/F stuff, & didn't quote me a price.

At the moment, I'm just trying to gauge the intrest, to see if it's worth their while even doing it. They need at least 1-2 orders before they will take the moulds. I'll get back to you all on more firm prices in the coming weeks.

carbon fibre bonnet ftw! the kit is nice..i'd be interested in getting a copy of the front bar as i've already got skirts and the same rear bar.

did you talk to the guys at motovation? graeme told me he was getting a mould done of the same kit..

I NEED the the Masa side skirts and rear bar to go with my front end conversion

The Masa R34 conversion guards arrive next week :O

Have not decided yet to get them copied or not.

When they say they can make one similar, do you have more details

I have the money and ready to order if that helps.

darrin, if you are gettin em copied let me know. I can get you a good deal with a fibreglasser (maybe free sideskirts and rear bar... I'll have to ask though).

I would love to do a deal

What type of skirts and rear bar?

I would like to copy them, that way if I ever break them, I can get a new set without the hassle and wait from Japan.

I can try and convince em to buy a masa side and rear bar, to go with yours. Stagea's are getting very popular, so I'm sure they'll want in on it enough to front up the cost of moulding it. If you have any other preference, then let me know.

I wouldn't!!

My stagea is all for looks, so bring on the fibreglass (got the 19's already ... well and a kit as well, just not sure on the f/b atm!!).

I've already got a car for power!! :O

each to their own, but i'd much rather get the car going good and look standard then get it lookin like a 260rs and stock, then making it go better after.

ive never been a fan of wild kits and fancy add ons, much rather the goodies under the bonnet, and when im done i might add some skirts and thats about it besides some rims.

different horses for different courses i guess :)

r34 gtr front might be an option in the very distant future, but not for a while yet.

cheers

      Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
