I have been told that it might be the GTR front bar (not original of course) along with the 400R sides and rear but i just wanted to double check before i start calling and emailing around. any info would be great, and if there is a forum sponser that does these kits that would be great too!

Many thanks, look forward to cruising with youse real soon.

:laugh:

cheers guys. the rims look good but i already have another design in mind. im assuming this bodykit then is the same? yeh i found that car on carsales, looks really good but the kms are a lil high :thanks:

Baby Blue Skyline 01

Baby Blue Skyline 02

im just a lil confused cause the sides look different and the frontbar doesn't have those nostrals on the front of the kit. sorry to be a pain, if theres a suzuki question ill answer it no problems, im just new to nissan.

Hey Nic.....front bar on the blue one would be a copy (?) of an early R33 GTR front bar....the N1 vents were only added on the series 2 (I think) and definitly the series 3 GTR.

Side skirts are diff....the 400r ones have the little vents in them on the rear 1/4 section.

Hope that helps

sorry to sound like a bit of a n00b but would the blue skyline kit be available cause im seeing alot of you guys have similar kits but with those nostrals and urs also seem alot lower to the ground than this blue kit? also is that skyline a Series 2 skyline and would that kit only fit a Series 2? any info would be tops!

is that skyline a Series 2 skyline and would that kit only fit a Series 2? any info would be tops!

Pretty sure that blue skyline is a series 1. The bonnet on a s2 has much sharper ridges, also the headlights on a s2 are slightly thinner & sharper than a s1.

Can't say that I'm a fan of that bodykit on the blue skyline though. 400r skirts look much more tidy.

    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
