the Autosalon shit seems to have catched onto you youngins...2 years and 8 months ago was when the trend started again, then the yanks thought it was good to follow on, making it look like they are the ones who are responsible for the popular return...:P

FYI: there are conversion kits around for every car imaginable.

my new 20s are deep dish and chrome are they rice?

I wouldn't say chrome is "rice" More so the "each to their own" style of the cheaper chrome rims you see on little buzz box 4 cyl's.. that would fall under the "rice" term. On that note, last time i checked, in a nut shell; rice pretty much ment all show no go - and things that had no use. I'm pretty sure your car will have more go then most of the people on this forum have when finished :P

if it helps, I owned a toyota sera at one stage in my life... the car came with factory gullwing doors, which were a pain in the ass coz you had to regass the strut that holds the door up frequently.

Kits are available for the R32 (in melbourne anyways) think it was close to $1500 + fitting from memory. Its just a bracket, a hinge and a strut. Scissor doors look good on the new celicas, 300zx and RX7's, but most of the other cars look wierd i reckon.

I think what people are trying to get at is that Skylines have VERY plain looking doors - frameless sedan style square doors.

They look like shit if they scissor up.

BUT... on a Series 6 RX7... plus say a Amemiya bodykit... it would look sweet.

The RX7 has the curvy shape and swooping doors to pull it off.

A 32 does not.

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
