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...

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
