Hey, I just recently bought a fibreglass bodykit off this website called vivagarage. Just wondering if anyone has bought one of there kits before and how well they line up. I also got quoted $2000 to fit and spray the kit (front bumper, rear bumper, two side skirts) Is this a reasonable quote??

I paid 900 for mine painted and fitted.

had it done in Wynnum. Not gonna advertise the guys business cause he cut the diffuser off my $550 rear bar

But maybe that comes under the philosophy "you get what you pay for"

hopefully your kit fits of the bat! i doubt it though.

we spent hours re-fitting twisted pieces, so if you could do any of that im sure it would dramatically reduce the cost if you can take it to them ready to go.

good luck :P

I bought a rear bar and side skirts from Viva for my stagea.

Took me about 40 hours to make the rear bar fit. Had to be cut into 3 peices.

Both side skirts had to be lengthened as well.

Good luck

40 hours?? did i read that right? lol that's insane! yea viva garage is the only place I could find that sold the full kit for a 4-door r33 so I'm hoping it doesn't involve too much work otherwise i'm not gonna be too happy. and yea this is the first quote I've gotten so far. The place that quoted me was 'auto collision repairs' at seventeen mile rocks..the first place I've been to that actualy gave me a quote lol

Smick panel and paint on the gold coast are doing my veilside front bar, side skirts, and rear pods for $650 painted and fitted. and I think hes doing my grill for free

Earlier in the year I got a TR bar off carmate and it wouldnt bend in enough to fit flush so it cracked and had to be repaired and they have been ignoring all my emails. Hows that for customer service.

i payed just under $15,000 for a kit and to bare metal respray. but thats with custom molded guards and like i said to bare metal.

at the end of the day, you get what you pay for and when it comes to paint, every mofo will pick it like they know every thing about paint and have bought the best of the best.

my advice, decide what sorta quality you want and then decide if thats an acceptable price.

with paint. you get what you pay for. hope this helps.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
