haha pk did u see that on the csa site? :D

Yep they the rims i want! Im in the process of saving for them now, mite be a while yet tho!

Have you been down to see Joe at Wheelworx and got a price from him? There not the most expensive wheel out thats for sure! You should do what i should have done, and get 4 rear wheels so theres DISH AS all round, as the fronts still have dish, just not as much!!! With the white, they will look the bomb on your car, but you do know that these wheels are like EVERYWHERE!

Bringing back a recent thread.

Has anyone bought an R33 front bar from Viva Garage? I like the idea of the GTR style for the GTS-t, as my current bar is more 400R (side vents, ugh!).

I would like to know peoples experience with FRONT BARS and their fitments. Looking at the photo's of Flicks car, a 5-10mm gap like between the door and guard is NOT acceptable to me so I want to know if all their stuff fits like this?

Cheers :P

I have the 400R front bar from Viva, mine has been modded so the Vents on the front and the side are not there, so they will match smooth side skirts! BUT in regards to the bar fiting, well mine wasn't the best fitment but it did the job! and now its chipped and cracked so it's not really fitting the best at the moment!

Hope that helps a little!

Well i got of the phone to viva garage today enquiring bout Bn side skirts and rear bar he said theres one in stock. I asked if i could put it up against my car and he said no not unless i buy the kit first. His reason been that if he takes it out the packaging no one would buy it which sounds stupid to me. So my first question is has anyone bought Bn style side skirts and rear bar from viva garage? And how well did they fit? I was pretty dissapointed with the guy on the phone he wasnt very helpfull at all. Also does anyone know anywhere else in adelaide i could get this kit? Does customshine stock these items?

Cheers iLEC

thats strange, when i inquired bout my guards they were really helpfull, were going to let me have a good look at them etc and if i wasnt happy with them, as in if they didnt fit right, he was going to let me exchange them.

I guess everyone has different experiences with them. Ive heard alot of bad things about them, and ive also seen another 32 with the exact same guards and they fitted alot alottt worse than mine. Im pretty happy with mine, the gap is hardly that noticable really, and the fit of the guards is pretty good in general.

U could try custom shine, they could probly get them in for u. I dont know of any other places otherwise..

you will find cheap aero parts are often copies sold as discounted originals. basically hold the part up to light and you should not see light, some lighter areas are ok but nothing to thin. In the end if it takes a weeks labour to correct a ripple skirt how are you saving money??

its funny to see cars covered in cheap kits, looks like aero bars, covered in ripples and full of holes!!

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
