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:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
