I know they charge a lot..I asked for quotes before, charge me somewhere about $800 for a fibre glass front bar copy...so I went somewhere else..

Where did you go for your front bar then?

I am actually after a body kit for my 'line at the moment and still doing research on where I should go for.

Cheers

My Skyline had its BodyKit done at Fibre Vision (with previous owner), I have receipts for front bar, skirts, fenders and rear bar $6000+! Bit of an overkill ay, money could've been put to better use but yeh!

Im giving them a call today because the glue has already turned to shit and sides are lifting (pritty f**ked considering the 6k was spent less then 6 months a go)!

Thanks for the comments guys.

@kx2fity

Thats a lot of money just for body kit. Would you mind to tell me a little further about it i.e. How bad is the lifting? Hows the fitting i.e. any gap between kit and car's body?

@Mitchy

I called him twice already during last week but unfortunately I could not grab a hold of him and hence couldn't get a chance to have a good talk and possibly to get a quote as well. However, I will give another try.

Btw, did you get, paint and fit your front bar from brett? Your front bar looks hot.

Cheers

mine took about 2.5 weeks to have front bar fitted, painted, etc.. and i had a few other bits and pieces cleaned up while it was there.

they get busy though, brett will let you know how long it will take. :yucky:

Yeah, I will have some scratches to clean up either...might as well do it while I get my kit done. Thanks for the info mate.

That is an awesome car you got there mate! Love the tail light.

But black colour is a bitch to keep clean aye. We are in the same boat by the way (I have a black R34) LOL!

Tell me about it, I spent over hr cleaning it yesterday and its already covered and dirt and shit!

I have a mate who cleans BMWs for a living and he gave me some pointers on cleaning black cars, and apparntly keeping their shine for longer

(light wash, dish wash detergent soak, sponge of, shammy dry, Microfibre cloth with window cleaner 'polish')

Post some pics of your car (maybe some before and after shots) of when you get your kit!

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
