Apart from the ironing board, mounted on the back, it looks great. I would actually fit a stealth wing similar to the JMS R33 drift car.

OOOPS, Just saw T0nyGTSt's pic. That's EXACTLY what i am talking about. VERY NICE!

I used to have the same bomex front end but it got severely damaged by the Japanese/Aussie folks on the ship/dock.

I looks the same as the top photos posted. I gave it to a mate of mine who fixed it up.

Besides that, I just added a 400r bar (the SAU GB) and that's it. The rest is as it came from Kobe.

Tony, love your work too! :)

-Why do the wheels arches look all notchy in the picture?

what suspension are you running to get your ride hieght?

YnVmE4, personally dont like the bomex front bar, mostly coz it uses the factory indicator lights, and the smaller round GTR blinkers look better on a larger bar, i reckon!

I use HKS Hyper D adjustable coilovers (the purple/pink ones with the pillowball mounts).

I think eventually I would like the 400r rear bar, 400r skirts + GT-R front end.

I can't think of any other front bar that is higher.

Maybe a Jun, Trust or Waste Sports front bar, all look good but too low.

See how cracked mine is now?

Yeah, it really only matters what YOU like seeing as its your car!

If we all liked the same kit, our cars would all be the same :)

personally though i like the std GTR kits, because of the clean smooth lines, and uncluttered look. On the other hand a 400R kit looks tuff if done properly, ie ideally with some nice big wheels and low suspension. As its an aggressive looking kit, it needs the whole treatment to pull it off i think.

Depends what you want your car to look like. Racer, sleeper, drifter, GTR!? etc...

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
