i must say, seeing the pictures doesnt clarify everything. but in saying so :

1, looks like this guy knows what hes doing if he had to cut your skirts and re fibreglass join them , aside the paint quality as they say you get what you pay for.

2, the kit obviously is garbage if he had to join them. you can see why , obviously these skirts wont bend around the gaurd to fit , thats why he has cut them.

3, rear bar looks terrible , these cheap kits are rubish , they never fit properly and i must say , iv never seen a decent body kit which hasnt got cracks in the paint . you twist the car going up steep drive way and they crack without them touching the floor. they are just garbage

4, stick to the standard bodykit , that thing doesnt suit the skyline one bit. quality isnt cheap , thats why plastic or carbon fibre is the way to go as far as body panels. genuine plastic panels , your looking into the high hundreds per skirt , bumper.

Replying to your post SKY017 ---- if this guy knows how to cut the fibreglass then he must know how to join them as well but got massive lumps where he joined the side skirts.......... you are right that these pictures can't do justice............. you have to see it to believe .............. i showed the bodykit to Victor at jetspeed and after looking at the bodykit he recon. if someone knows how to install fibreglass bodykit will not cut it and join it again............... he recon. heating the fibreglass with a heat gun should flex it and no need of cutting for just extending it 2cm.......... same with the rear bar.................... All fibreglass kits are not rubbish mate............ i checked the quality of this whole kit before buying it and it was not too bad............... it all depends how you prep. it so you can get good results ........................ you shold seen the paint job mate............... it got paint run marks everywhere even on the genuine plactic rear spoiler series-2........ the person who can't paint the genuine spoiler ............ then waht you expect from him with the fibreglass.............. yes, it was my f**K up in first place that i want to save bit of money and trusted this guy.............. but learned the hard way .......................

Why do people still pay good money for fibreglass Shit. On one of my first cars (nissan Exa) I got a Jetspeed body kit fitted to it paid stupid amounts of cash for it and it never fit properly looked shit and lasted about a week!

Edited by SLDN-31

Being fiberglass doesn't mean it's shit... Even Nismo or Eastbear makes fiberglass, does that mean they make shit parts?..

I think what people should do is invest some money into well known brands, brands that have good feedback on fitment.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
