Hi all

I've got a R32 gts-4 it has a jet speed FINAL KONNEXION Body-Kit but I don't like the look of the side skirts . I've looked around and found a set that I like on carmate.com.It's in NSW so Has anyone got kits from them what do you think and how do they fit?

I'd be a bit wary of carmate, I bought a fibreglass R33 Type-M style front lip from them recently...It arrived quickly enough, complete with a 6cm crack in a pretty visible location (see my avatar - the crack was the on the bottom left corner). I thought it might've been shipping damage but my panel shop informed me that someone had tried to do a dodgy repair on it (and hadn't succeeded!)...which ruled that out.

The good news was once the panel shop had repaired it, the fit was pretty damn good.

mate if you want a great fitting and quality kit for your skyline go see peter @ bodyform

your welcome to inspect the quality and fitament of the kit on my car and its safe to say the quality is second to NONE

True that, Bodyform are champs

I got side skirts from them that were about 15mm short too! Imo carmate are shit, poor service, tried ripping me off and the skirts had to be remoulded to fit my car, and they also had a crack in them!! I would not recomend anyone to them, the quicker they go outta business the better!!

    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
