nice painting skills.

but i think it looks a bit weird the way the black comes so close to the front wheel, and cuts in at the headlight half way.

would have looked better on a slant, with the whole front in black, including black front bar.

sort of like this

It's good that you like it.

it's your car.

You were after opinions..

I just think the black comes down too far.

and it makes it look as though it wasn't thought out very well (to me!).

I don't mind cars which are 2 toned with a massive range of colours.. even those ugly gold and brown silvia's look ok sometimes.

but this black comes down too far I think.

As someone mentioned earlier, if it had stopped at the bonnet/top of the guards level, it would have looked great.

Mine is painted Westinghouse white from factory and I think it looks better than that combo you've done.

Having said that, I like both the black or the candy red you used, but on their own. not in that design.

Geez so much hate...

It's your car man, if you like how it turned out then f**k what the rest of the people here think.

I like it, not my idea of PERFECT but it's very different, at least you're not the same as every other man and his dog.

why is it so important to be different than everyone else?

I don't get the obsession.

Why the fark do you want to be the same?????? :(

Fark, it will be a boring place if we all did the same things, had the same opinions, drive the same cars, had the same colour/mods/power/handling/etc/etc/etc.............................

true thanks heaps. i chose to be different because when you go to a show or an event there's nothing worse than seeing the same car over and over. i posted these photo's just to see how it would be viewed by other people and and alot of you like it and alot of you dont and thats cool. but if it bothers you that much and it's (yuck,worst you've seen) looks like shit or what ever just think you dont own it and you dont have to live with it. if its that bad please SAU delete this thread and my apologize if i offended all the skyline owners of australia.

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
