Suck about the rear window ... I did the same thing on my R32 not that long ago ... except I was taking the rear wing off and the little stud got caught in the boot and i pulled a couple times hard and then the missus came out of the garage to say something to me and as she did I lost concentration of what I was doing and the spoiler came free all of a sudden straight into the rear window and SMASH !!!

$600 later and have a window installed

lol that's Driftline in melb and my pic :P wow that's a very long time ago... there's a paint booth where that tarago's sitting now.

that 180sx ute's been a part holder for the last two years. we had a couple of beers and pizza one night and decided to chop the roof off a 180sx. If you seriously want it, make an offer, its all done, boot floor and walls, rear partition, roll cage and rear window (out of a gemmy or something). needs a front bumper and sideskirts and paint to finish.

I sold the original BN kit (that that copy and the mould was pulled off) about a year n a bit ago to another guy on the forums... dunno if he's fitted it yet.

kewl....i did they same thing but the kit was shit...bought it from VIVA GARAGE...!!!

so much work went into it that it wasnt even funny at the end....

had to make all the panels one piece so they would all line up and have a nice finish,,,

i stilll got photos of when we trial fitted the kit with tape...hahha...if u saw it u would laugh, but i actually almost started crying..more money for panle beta..

stilll waiting to get it painted FANTASY....hopefully painter will hurry up..!!!!!!!!

Check out my thread.........pplz

That kit actually looks like it was better quality than what mine is lol. I bought a pair of clear front indicators for it and for them to fit i need to cut the rear bar which i will not do.

One question what reverse lights are using cause on mine i the r32 ones want go on with out it looking insanely gay so i moved the license plate to the boot.

As for updates ive been to tired from my new job to do any work on the car im hoping this weekend o get something done on it

hey man hows it treating you,

im doing same conversion to my car.. well front half for sure.. not sure about the Bee**R back guards like yours.. but seeing the way you have done it i might re think that!

i was going to go 32 gtr back quaters... but my friend is selling a kit same as yours. but genuin.

as for the head lights to fit.. small 'modification' needs to be made.. aka get some tin snips and u got to cut basically where head light is stock, on the side closer to the out side of the car.. cut that square about a nother 100 mm longer.. if u would like i can post up a few pics of mine.

but kit is looking good.. gave me some ideas. and dw about the side guards.. if u got a bonnet to go with it. it follows the same lines.

Finally pulled my finger out of my A$ and got some work done on the car oh and i chose a colour for it at last. Matt black is a bitch to keep clean to because it seems dust is attracted to for some reason.

hey bro just havin a look at some of ur pictures as ive got the same kit on my 32

was reading some of your posts.

um no u will have to get a r34 bonnet fibre glass wont be street legal and u wont get a permit for it either unfortunately i tried and u will need to make sure ur insurance company is aware of the kit u have as your insurance will not cover u in a crash.

the gap u have between the bonnet and front bar is fixed by an r34 standard seal if u didnt no

hope thats helps abit

good luck tho

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
