scissor doors shouldnt be too hard to put in place as ur just replacing the hinge

scissor doors would be awesome i also was considering them myself however best if u look into the compliancy laws if u dont want to get stickered by the cops.

It's not just replacing the hinge. you got to cut into the body of the car. lots of work. The Hinge is huge!.

Personaly i wouldn't get them even if there where free. They do look cool when up. Works like this. You open the door about 1 1/2 foot then get out of the car and pick up the door and lift with both hands (becasue it's heavy) so everyone can see you got them. Unless your buff then you can do it sitting in the car with one hand.

i have also heard that the door is attached to the sidewall of the car, i.e NOT where the old hinge was, but on that panel, and it has been known in many occasions to bend the sidewall because of continuous use (weight),...this was not on a v35 thou.

Sorry to revive an old thread but was just woundering if anyone has done the scissor door mods since this post was started, im looking at doing it in the next few months and i have found some bolt on kits that do not need any cutting into the body links are below.

as it is on a gas struts the doors should open on there own like a bonnet does or atleast make it easy to open the doors.

I have fitted lambo door kits before on a late model celica. Big job, requires taking the whole front end off the car. And very fiddly to set up. Did require some trimming of the inner guard.

If you are going to get a kit would reccomend spending the money and getting a good quaility kit.

It did look very porn after it was done!

One of my initial plan too. But got put off by the weight of the doors. Plus, I had to get RTA certificate to be legal which cost anywhere between $1.5k-$2.5K on top.

Definitely not good for under weight girls too.

Looks hot though. :thumbsup:

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
