Hi guys i just stumbled on some kits that are in the US for like $600 GTR looking kit. They are made out of some material that i have never herd of link is below if anyone knows much about em please let me know as im considering purchaing one.

some of the ebay stuff have very bad fitment, so to get it professionally re-worked for a proper fit is prolly going to cost a lot more.

not really into the GTR looking kits, imho best get a kit made specifically for the V35...the nismo, impul, kuruma z or kenstyle all look good.

Just make sure you go to a reputable place that have experience in fitting and painting body kits. You might be able to go to local Nissan dealer to fit a OEM geninum replacement parts, but not aftermarket.

Good luck.

I had some pics sent to me from prestiege and the paint jobs where shocking the silver GTR kit did not match the color of the car in the sun at all, this is my worst nightmare to have that happen :S im not sure if i should kit it at all now

Adam, the main reason of mis-match paint when installing body kits is because of different materials used.

The material of the body of the car (i.e Plastic, Aluminium, etc.) attracts the paint particles at different rates compare to material used for aftermarket body kits (i.e. Fibreglass, Carbon fibre, etc.). Therefore, I believe no two different material parts will have a 100% matching paint. The best you can get it about 85%-90%.

But like I said before, if you go to a reputable place that have experience in fitting and painting body kits, you should be fine. Just make sure you give the right paint code and enough information (2 layers/3 layers pearl, etc.).

Worse being worse, you can make assurance with the place beforehand that, if the paint comes out totally crap, they will have to fix it up. And they will as big/famous places are scared to loss good rep. :)

Good luck with the process.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
