got a quick couple of snaps of my painted sideskirts when i test fitted one of them.

now i need a front bar to match the height of the skirts as it looks funny now :( rear bar is fine but the front one is sooo high off the ground and the skirt is about 90mm from the floor

i dont know if fitting the skirts is a good or bad thing as its looking more like a hoons car everyday with brakes, bodykit, lowering, exhuast and i bought it for the purpose of not having to worry about cop attention.

lmfao its an addiction

lmfao...

Please explain in long hand.

Brad, what you should be doing is sourcing a 'see through' bonnet for that motor.

I got the same skirts - from Qikstagea. Probably for the same reason as you - wanted to fill in the middle of the car and give it a lower look without modifying the suspension.

For the uninitiated these are Nismo style kits and the bottom of the skirts are level with the bottom of your existing mudflaps.

Since I'm already up for a fibreglass job to repair the crash damage, I might see if i can raise them a bit.

Who cares about cop attention, although i do know where you are coming from as that is the reason i got rid of my silvia for the stag, but f*&k your car is SEX

IM IN LOVE :(

Brad like i always say..sex on wheels champ..that car is lookin sweeeeeetttt...anytime you want to take me for a drive???

by the way i LOVE the side skirts :devil: your car is seexxxyyyy :P

thanks guys and girls its lookin alot nicer than when i got it, i just need to put some better rims on it and it will be how i want it :devil: maybe front bar upgrade as i said earlier is on the list and some rear brembo brakes to match the fronts.

going up curbs with the skirts are interesting and only clear by about 20mm when on a 45 degree angle to the curb, i think speedhumps are out of the question, luckily its not a daily driver.

thanks again :P

Looks great Brad,

You do need a front bar and wheels to match (my opinion) as the skirts are really fat and the first thing that catches you eye now, probably due to the fact they are so low. Sick car though!

Cheers

Luke

Mr RS4 - great to see you back again mate...... still got a pic of your car on my HD (was in a yellowish well-lit carpark, looked sexy as!!)

Brad, looks great mate. If you ever do sell those mags drop me a PM with a price. I think that the front bar looks ok as is tho, but hell its your car, lol.

Hey Guys, new to the steaga world >_< , here are some pics of mine. Got big plans for this car, but a good starting block. :miner:

Car looks awesome! I want similar style wheels for mine, but first I need to get the suspension sorted - mine sits so high, it's not funny!

Nice shots, Alex - I might consider doing the same sort of thing next time I take my car out for a few photos...

    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
