do they offer a replica of the stock front lip? i currently have nothing down there and the others he offers aren't that good looking..

I'm interested in the front OEM lip as well as the M3 boot lip.

DRIFFT: Are you able to let us know how much it is to bring one in pre-painted?

lol, this was long time ago. already got myself a front lip

:-) yep ages ago.

Unfortunately trying to organise something like this is pretty difficult.

You need several people buying together and to be in the same state for it to work out best.

I can still contact the guy if anyone is interested but shipping single units for larger parts such as front bars is very expensive.

On a side note, is anyone is Aus making anything yet?

I know carmate have replica's of the WALD kit for the V35 but personally I wouldn't go there.

Yeah they have a few coupe bits and pieces but also not sure how much i trust them.

They do have a gurantee on their site that states all part will fit perfect if you go to their installers but again it's Carmate.

Hey Fox,

I'm happy to pass on contacts, but have sold the V35, so won't be looking into this.

It actually died off a while ago.

Also with the Aus $ being where it is, you ever need to be crazy or cashed up to even consider importing from the US. (which is what i was going to do)

As a guide, at the time I was looking at $650US delivery which can fit a fair few front bars, skirts etc, and around $400US for a decent front bar.

Check out the Traders section in the for sale section, I know at least 1 place is now doing replicas here in Aus. Not sure of the quality but have a chat to them about it. The guy I was speaking to in the US, guarantees 100% fitment on ALL products.

im still going to import my bodykit from the us.

the worst part about it is that shipping is the major killer, $800 USD to ship it to australia. better keep saving. its next on the list after i get my rims.

the kit is just a front bar and side skirts, the fb is urethane the side skirts are fibreglass, the rear pods i allready bought a set from usa last month so i have those, they are just the factory ones cost $130 delivered brand new allready in the right factory colour. the fb and side skirts are $1100 usd. ouch.

oh well tough times.... :P will take around 3 years i reakon for the AUD to recover... and im not waiting that long to mod my V!

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
