thanks for that nismo32r. What happnd?

My friend had a Series 8 RX7 and bought a gen Boxmax bodylit from jap for few k's

he asked aresspeed to paint and fit them on the car...

at the end the car turn out like a 30k worthy car

the color is not matching+the kit is not fitted properly+they drill holes on the body to screw front and rear bumpers and skirts...

if i have a chance...i will post up pics to show you guys

I am just about to get a body kit from either MakSpeed or Jetspeed. Makspeed quoted me $1200 and Jetspeed $1400 for the same kit. Just wondering what your opinions would be on the quality of the products, I dont mind paying extra if Jetspeed has a better quality product. Any thoughts?

I will be able to supply them for around $1000

damn that sux arsse nismo32r. not much should be done to a genuine kit... Inasn't how much for rear bars only? u got painting and fitting options?

went to all my local panel shops and the average just for fitting and painting was $400 bux approx i was like wtf?. i did find 1 place kinda dodgy but they give lifetime warranty on paint and the dudes are respraying a soarer and it looks mint from what they have done. $350 for fit and paint sidies. as well as custom reinforce front bar from dodgy first job as well as adjust the bonnet and light from a stack. So i might go with them. Inasn't how long till ur business is up and running man.

whats ur experience with them dazsQ as GT400r sez they did a crap job for him and fibre glass wasn't that good quality?

DJR33 what veilside kit u want there are 2 for 33's.

i think i'm getting it done this week at local panel shop. Once its done i'll post up pix.

I want the kit for the gtst. As far as i know theres only 2 kits, one for the gtst and one for gtr. All the pics ive seen of the kit on 33's look really low, but that might be coz all of the cars have been lowered. I dont want anything that wont allow me to go over speed bumps

there are two kits for GTS and 2 for GTR.

I got the car back today and i'm very very happy with the job.

It cost 350 for:

- fitting and painting of sideskirts

- pushing out the light (which was slightly pushed in from previous stack)

- realigning bonnet also from previous stack

- re-doing mesh (coz dodgy bodykit shop i got it from used builders bog and it came off, what a surprise)

-making brackets to hold bar in more firm (dodgy bodykit shop just bolted it on ends and used super dodgy brackets in the middle)

also washed the car which was cool, and all of this was done in 1 day dropped it off at 8 and picked it up at 5.

Place was TJ panels in seaford. I'll post up pix on monday.

Guys if you want bodykits, i can get you any kit that jetspeed or others can get for around $1100 unpainted delivered to Melbourne in about 2 weeks once a deposit is put down.

All i need is a pic of the kit to check if the mould is available so it can be made and sent within 2 weeks.

friend just got a fit and spray rear bar for 180sx for $300 i think it was.. didn't use their bodykit so can' t comment on that.. but the fit and spray colour matched well and job was well done

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
