Ok.. So I Saved Some Money And Want To Buy A Bodykit..


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I've been working a fair bit and saved some money for a bodykit (for my s1 33), i was thinking top secret or 400r or something similar..

But my question is where the hell in vic can i get them from (around SE suburbs) All i know of is driftline but their site is pretty useless and doesnt list any skyline bodykits or anything, and also where abouts you guys would recommend fitting and spraying? What are micolour like? price wise and quality wise?

I want it to look good, but doesnt have to be a really expensive (zomg showroom condition) i want a reasonable price for fitment and spray.

Can you guys suggest some places? I know theres a sticky but its fairly outdated

Oh and also what do you guys think of the top secret kit on a 33?

thanks, leigh.

well if u interested i have a trial rear bar for the 33 if u want. wanna get rid of it. fibreglass. only want $120 for it. cost me almost double that when i got it. unpainted at the moment, still bare fibreglass with gel coat.

pm me if u interested

I've used Imperial Finish Body Works on centre road in Springvale before for a repaint of some parts. Also my mate has on his 32 GTR. Both were top notch jobs. However both were insurance jobs so unsure of pricing. Give Murray a call, good bloke.

to fit and paint, i've already bought the kit just awaiting the courier.

top secret kit ftw!

keep us informed on how the job goes.. would like to see the kit up and running

yeah that seems like a good price, DT do some good work. Im goin there to get my kit and some panel stuff fixed up.

DT do some great work at very reasonable prices, I had my side skirt repaired (was cracked) and re-sprayed. Since they made a hairline crack in it when putting it back on they took it off and fixed the tiny crack :)

Excellent service and good quality work.

got my car back from DT, i wouldnt call there work the best but pretty much for the price i think it is good. One major problem is the wing rubs against my rear window seals.. :) so yeh going to try and fix it up myself, heres a couple of pics. (sorry bout quality phone pics)

Tell me what ya think

keep in mind its a n/a, a rare occasion indeed hehe. Will be going turbo in about a year.

btw whats the legal ride height? some are like 10cm.. which will fit some are like a can of coke.. which wont i dont think lol

Looks pretty decent

100mm is legal, so that nothing like the diff or exhaust hits something that's 100mm high.

N/A hey? Need 5 stud and big brakes? :P

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
