I'm looking to buy a bodykit for my R33 GTS-T in as soon as I get my car back from the workshop, I've been thinking to go for the Veilside Bodykit just wanted people's opinion on them, and if so, what other bodykits you would suggest?

I've just been looking around at local bodykit shops in Brisbane, I get mixed opinion on most bodykits.

I was on the lines of getting a Veilside kit, but I was unsure thats why I posted this.

Mmm..choices, choices ..lol

The veilside front bar looks terrible I reckon, the rest isn't bad.

If you want a nice kit, go the trial one.

Anyone know what sorta rims they are in the veilside pic?

Probably Veilside rims. Which sort I don't know though

Yeah I think the veilside bodykit doesnt suit the skyline at all... well for my taste that is. They suit more sleeker body cars such as the supra. On a skyline they look more over the top.

I have a question, the 400R bodykit is exactly the same as the Nismo GTR Vspec bodykit... why dont they just call it Nismo bodykit?

Or is there with Nismo who copy their bodykits?

I think someones confused you mate...

The 'Nismo GTR Vspec' kit or whatever you called it *is* the 400R kit. The trouble with all the low-quality fiberglass copies being made by companies in Australia is that they all have their own pet names for the kit they produce, even if one kit is a copy of another kit that was copied off the original 400R kit...

After having a think about it, and having a look at a few photos, I won't be going the Veilside option.

Just hard to pick what one to get - lol looking around at photos on DMD and JetSpeed (Brisbane stores) if anyone has any links to bodykit shops that'd be great :thumbsup: Thanks!

Ahh! Thats the kit I saw last night I wonderd what sideskirts they were, thanks for that MintR33. I'll keep this one in mind too, have to look around Brisbane see what kits I can get done here.

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
