Like he said, it depends on the quality of the kit.

All copies will most likely need some sort of mods to fit. Mine was relatively easy to fit, but its still not perfect close up.

Some kits require you to trim your front bar reinforcement as well. Not sure if the veilside does. Mine didnt.

yeah I just spent the weekend with a mate fitting part of my kit to get it ready for weekend, $600 vertex copy for the 32, required a fair bit of chopping and cutting to get the side skirts on and a bit for the front bar as well. Mainly just the intercooler pipping got in the way for the front bar.

now I just need to get the rear bar fitted then I can spray it :)

but the point is, if you are getting a copy of a kit, dont expectit to just bolt straight on with no problems..

and you might find some rust under your old kit.. like I did :D

reciprocating saw and die grinder are the best for these copy kits :D

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
