yeah I have the BN Sports widebody kit. I advertised it for sale cos I needed the cash.

everyone likes the kit, but not its cost though. I asked $2500 for it, which is what it costs for an original BN Sports 9 piece widebody kit (front bumper, rear bumper, sideskirts, rear pumped fenders, front pumped fenders and fuel flap).

Some guy offered to copy it and give me the original back along with 2 copies, but then he dissapeared off the face of the earth, he said he was with Jetspeed, so when I rang jetspeed they said they weren't too keen to make a widebody mould.

I asked one of my mates how much the mould would make as he took moulds of my vertex ket and he said it'd be about 8k. So I gave up on the whole making copies thing and decided that I'll just put it on my car be the only one in Australia with the kit, so everyone can kiss my black ass :thumbsup:

the kit actually cost me 100,000yen plus shipping, roughly it came to just under $1700 landed. it retails for about $2500. I'm not too interested in selling it now as I don't need the cash anymore. I don't mind someone getting copies of it made though, as long as I get something out of it, my original is returned undamaged and the kit is copied in melbourne. I haven't mounted or painted the kit yet as I'm waiting to finish the engine mods to the car before I get started on the body.

i wouldnt mind if you could make a copy and ill pay you what it costs, other option is to ship it to me in sydney and ill make a copy of t here, i have mates who do bodykits.( costs to much to start from scrath) are you sure you wont take a reasnable offer for it

yeah I'm sure I don't wanna sell it. I don't mind the kit being copied as long as it stays in melbourne (last time I sent off a vertex kit to be copied to QLD and that was a logistical nightmare... by the time I got the kit back every tom dick n harry and their pet goldfish had one) and also the kit has to be returned undamaged. If you can organise that then we can discuss a deal for me supplying the original.

If not I do container runs from japan almost every month. I can get you an original from BN Sports. I also have a trade account with URAS, so if you want any of their kits I can hook you up with a cheaper deal.

i dunno, I don't think you can. I haven't fitted it to my car yet, so I can't tell you for sure. The rear fender for example only comes halfway down over the original guard, the rest is part of the sideskirt, so I'd say you'd need at least 6 of the pieces. The front bumper I guess you could bog and blend into the wider guard. Rear bumper forms part of the rear guard as well, so that might be a lil trickier.

There's also a "garage V" (i think that's what its called... this was the one I wanted originally... its the one in the "GTR Story" DVD) widebody kit, a veilside widebody kit and a kakimoto widebody kit. Although I think the latter 2 are for GTR's only.

anyone know where to buy one ive been racking my brain for days, thanks in advance

We get all our kits done by Ken Streeter.

He makes fibreglass kits for most imports, they are excellent in quality. The main reason we go to him is that his kits have a lot of flex... so when/if you hit/touch anything, the kit is more likely to bounce/flex rather than snap. He gave us a demonstration by taking a sideskirt for a 180sx, and bending it over itself. I was impressed =)

    • At least yours have parkour down pat. One of mine will still trip over his own shadow and fall over... He's a special type of cat... Ha ha ha
    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
