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 I know theres a sticky but its fairly outdated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

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
