had a drive of a couple of cars we installed the copies of my kit on... and they're not exactly what you'd call streetable. at the end of the day if I put the kit on my car I wouldn't be able to thrash it around like I do now, and I'd hate to be forced to baby it around for fear of ruining it.

Probably OK for a show car that'll sit n look pretty or a drift car with a workshop/sponsor backing that can afford to throw it around... but for me the impracticality kinda won in the end.

ugh... we sell the copies of the kit for $3500, fitting and painting really depends on how much prep work you want done... if its a matter of doing it ghetto (bog and rivets) then it'd be cheap... but the way we do it is to take the panel back to metal to allow the fibreglass to bond better, then prep and paint.

here's one we're doing atm:

the owner originally went to some bodyshop that did a really shocking job of it... when we got it there were more ripples on that kit than a pond on a rainy afternoon... so a lot of time was spent getting it smooth and ready for paint. Its a little different in that its getting an R34 front... but he's using the R32 wide guards, rad support and front bumper... which looks a little wierd as the R34's front is usually a lot higher than an R32... but hey, what the customer wants, the customer gets.

sure... the black one's finished, and sporting 10" wide 18" gold VS-XX's. The pics are at the workshop, so I'll post some pics up when I'm there next. It should be at autosmellon as its being built up as a show car.

oh and the kit in the pics is now sold :thanks: keep thinking I should've just put it on my car :domokun:

we do em at the workshop using the original lever assembly, relocated, so you can still release the fuel flap from inside the car. some people go ghetto n leave it off, and others leave the original one on with a step in from the wider guard to show that its a widebody.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
