this might be a stupid question but from all the pics i have seen of skylines with lambo doors, it seems there isn't much room for people to get in or out

p.s. carbon fiber interior looks hot

Took these pictures recently for another customer, as you can see, plenty of room to get in and out.

Glad you got them Ok Chris, have fun with your new Doors. Installation really is easy, it`s only nuts and bolts. Remember to exercise the doors few times, test and adjust before putting all the components back on. Any problems give me a shout, always happy to help. 001334848469 mobile 04407795245306

me and a mate started my install of the lambo doors today! THEY ARE FREAKING AWSOME!

we managed to get one door on...took SOOO long though, spent like an hour trying to align it. put the car all back together to realise it was compety NOT in the same place i had aligned it :) I think i forgot to tighten the nuts after aligning it grrr

The kit is very easy to install though....IF you dont have side skirts, mine now need respraying and the doors his the skirts unless you open it a specific way....out a lil. up a bit out fully then up.

So atm i have one door on which i cna not use becuase its lined up so bad it overlaps on the back quater panel :P 2moro i will have to pull the front gaurd off again and try to realign it. Wont have a second pair of hands until next weekend though

The prep work is usually the most labour intensive with having to remove the wings to gain access, which in turn you need to remove the side skirts, front bumper and guards. Sounds like the hinges are sitting too far backwards on the adjustable slots. Did you keep the door on and locked when you fitted the hinge? This would make sure that the door was near the correct distance from the rear panel. Once you have it in the right place it might be worth putting a few tack welds round the hinge, like we have done on ours. Just illimanates it moving at all in the future. Not a neccessity but an option.

This im interested in... Especially carbon fibre.. anything for the R34?

Secondly could you supply pix of the hinges for a r34. Interested in how much space they take up.

Thanks

R34 bits are on our list to do at the moment. Will post up when they are ready.

Here is the install guide on an R33 GTST Skyline which shows the hinges. It`s not an R34 but the hinges will be same in appearance and size.

Alloy wheels done to death

Flip paint Jobs done to death

Extreme body kits done to death

Clean look done to death

Wide arch kits Done to death

Blacked out windows done to death

Blinging everything done to death.

Need I go on?

Everything has been done to death, does that meen all of you are now going to take any of those things off your car? I doubt it!

still working on my first hinge :D realised i had not bashed the frame flat enough so there was a gap between the window and the car :) So i had to take the bracket off again which i stupidly started doing while the hydrolic shock was still attached! dumbest thing ive ever done!

I flattened the area behind the hinge more and re attached it...still got a gap but not AS big so i guess ill keep trying!

I have an R33 Four Door that im always trying to find something different to do with. I have been toying for 12 months with putting scissor doors on the front, and suicide doors on the rears .. now that would be a real head turner, just not sure how easily it could be done. Imagine it as an alternative to this ....

Ok very very soon (about 4 weeks) i was having my car sent in for for a new spray job.... then this popped up. Lambo doors are the tits! and now i want some. I'm a little worried though if i have them installed after the car gets sprayed as i also have a kit like "chrissyo" and dont want to be paying for a new spray job only to scratch it up trying to put on the new doors. It was also said that the doors need adjusting every now and then. As my car is still a daily driver will i find that after a few months of opening and closing the doors they will be rubbing at the paint?

    • You're not the first person that's said that about this car lol. A Touring wagon GT in Spark yellow mica would be the dog's danglies 😆 I will keep an eye out for a future purchase for sure. The seats are almost like the OEM Recaros... electric adjustment for fore/aft and tilt movements except reclining.   
    • Yes!! I love these! It's a shame its not the wagon though!   Thank everything that's holy that it doesn't have the interior of the Aussie delivered ones. Those seats are so much nicer.  
    • I'm both sorry and thankful that you do that. 
    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches.
