got my flares in the mail this morning, just slaped them on to see what they look like.

i think they'll look tuff when done properly, what do you guys think?

they are a universal type flare. the front one needs to be pulled in a bit more at the back, but they flex pretty easy

and yes, i will get spacers/new wheels to fell them out

Hate it!..

Just lip the front and rear guards slightly. Look way better than bolt on Torana guards.

yeah, im starting to think rolling/liping the gaurds might be the way to go.

was worth a try tho, they were pretty cheap.

someones gotta try new things :worship:

PS: you must admit, it would look fat from behind with the wheels out to the gaurds

they dont look to be designed for bolting on, so molding them to the panel looks like a must anyway.

tp1gts2 - where abouts did you get them and how much? since they are universal i am keen to check them out.

dont forget that you can always trim them down so they dont come out so far

Reminds me of the 80's yankee style cars..

You definately need spacers.. MASSIVE ones!.. or massive offset

If you going to do it.. do it right and mould them.. thats what I think..

if not.. dont bother cos its gonna look shit..

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
