well i just bought a final konexion body kit and im wonderin what you guys think of them? how do u think the side skirts and rear bar would look with a trust front bar?

any oppinions would be great.... i dnt really like the front bar myself, but i bought it becuase its different to the 50 000 400r and trust fronts i see every day, but now im thinkin....that its gotta go lol

probably up near a grand for the full kit, depends on the place.

but on that note...how do ya think a trust front bar would go with the rest of the kit?

that's what I was thinking of getting if I do a full kit....if you do it make sure you put up pics so we can see what it looks like !!

I got my 180sx fully kitted, was only gonna cost me $700 painted and fitted, but they couldn't match the paint properly (stupid red cars), so he charged me $1,500 but that was with a full external respray

nice choice of kit my mate has an r33 gtst with the exact same kit but has the trust front bar on it like you want to do. The whole car looks really good and alot better than the original final konexian (sp) front bar. So yeah in my opinion go for the trust front bar

:sleep:

yea i think i might mate...its good to know that it all looks great together, i thought it might...its just tryna picture it in my head thats the hard part lol

Nice kit, personally I'd change the whole kit on your to the final konexion kit as it gives a fresh look to the 33 :)

yea i know which is exactly why i bought this kit.....its fresh, its just that like ive always had a thing for blonde girls :sleep: , ive always had a thing for a beefy hks intercooler hangin all out on the road :kiss:

excellent! youve just solved the last part of my plan mate ...ill most definatly be back to you on that one

Cool thanks :sorcerer: Ive been wanting the front bar for ages as its a nice looking bar not to agressive looking as most out there, fire a pm my way when you want to be rid of it, Thanks Mate :D

wow....1500 for a full external respray is good??....how did the job turn out? can i see pics of the work?

lol ya for sure as soon as i get it all sorted and fitted ill be on with pics 4 ya

yeha I thought $1,500 was good for a external spray and fitting the kit. I have a pic, no point in asking me where it was done as the bloke has shut shop now....but here ya go PIC

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
