Hey Guys

Been looking at the Impul body kit (Sides and rear only) to stick on the 34 with the factory front + lip.

I have uploaded a photo of my front (Factory + lip) here: http://mezmamedia.com/richie/photos/skyline_r34/skyline_yen_mumshouse_photoshopped.jpg

I'm thinking about getting the impul side skirts and rear bumper or the bomex sides and rear bumper. I'm leaning towards impul sides and rear.

The car hasn't been lowered and the front with the lip is approx 150mm off the ground.

Anyone know the height of the side skirts from factory suspension of the impul and bomex sides?

I'm hoping the impul side skirt kits would be around the same height as the front so they line up. The impul front bumper doesn't look like it would be much lower than my factory front and lip (Going by photos anyway).

Any and all help would be appreciated :)

looking good Charles. I attempted de-badging mine on the weekend - ended up melting the paint with the hair drier :(

Richie - I was looking at the z-tune skirts for my car, I think they would go with the front lip. Then again, I am going for the clean discrete look.

Yeh thats why I am looking at the impul side and rear - It doesn't look that much different than the factory stuff (Just a bit taller etc). The side skirts look like standard R33 sides as well.

If you think that's my car, it's not :P

My R34 is much more unique than that xD

Nope, I reckon it would be similar height, because the lip slopes down from the front to the rear, so the rear of the lip is lower, which should line up with the skirts.

If you want, I took my Nismo skirts to my panel beaters yesterday, so hopefully I'll have them on my car sometime next time, I'll send you some pics, because I think the Nismo skirts is pretty similar to Impul.

That will be awesome man - Decided not to paint your skirts yourself hey :P ?

I'm keen to get the impul sides and rear for the car - Looks like a better version of the factory standard kit hehe

Just don't want funny looking cross with the skirts and front

The impul front kind of looks like the factory bar with the lip as well :|

Yeah, coz the skirts needed to be kinda re-fibreglassed in some corners lol.

I agree, the Impul kit is one of my favourite, but I only like the sides and rear, the front is a little too much for me haha.

The side is simple and the rear is like factory but with added "pods" lol, just a clean, simple kit.

It lines up pretty nicely with your front lip man... That has given me more confidence that the impul side skirts should lineup with my bar...

ps: your car is in dire need of a wash :P

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
