Widebody Gtr

[Beer Baron]

yeah, good point on the brakes. well, you get the picture. I thought I took one of the front, but must have mixed them up.

[Dahtone Racing]

now they are awesome widebody kits

still kep the lines of the R32 and are fat as

[[WLDCRD]]

anyone remember that veilside widebody that used to belong to UPI (plates were BNR32). that car was hot! its the only widebody that i liked (and surprisingly made by veilside, who in my opinion, make a lot of shit kits). pity they are so damn expensive! anyone know the going rate for them these days?

[Beer Baron]

not sure if anyone in aus has imported the genuine veilside WB kits for 32 (except for ones already on cars). I will probably call in to veilside first week in november so if it's no trouble I'll find out what they charge for them these days.

sweeeet. all i need to do is sell one kidney and i should be right!

[LiQuid IcE]

how much do you get for selling your kidney??

Do you need it??

[Ronin 09]

agreed that is about the only VS kit that doesn't look like it's hit road kill...

the only other one i can think of off hand is the RX-7 kit from FF3 that's hot

[Beer Baron]

yeah, veilside do have some terrible kits but their widebody 32s have so much prescence in the flesh. they look amazing. i even like the veilside mariott wheels they put on them. suit the cars very well.

[sigsputnik]

mate, i think you have to stick to your guns - if you like it, that's all that matters. some wider tyres will make the car sit better i think. go for it, mate.

i'm interested to hear about shan's case also...

i'm interested to hear about shan's case also...

the fibreglasser we contracted to do the mould sold a copy to the company that supplied ali's kit. he was swayed by extra money thrown at him (seeing as they charged ali for a genuine kit i'm sure they had plenty spare)... nothing much we can do except call him names and give him a swift kick to the nuts.

Not gonna stress over it coz I'm over it. I've had the kit for like 3 years now... if people were that desperate for it they'll pay for a real one and copy it, so replica's are inevitable.

still feel pretty shitty about it though. shouldn't have even agreed to having the kit copied in the first place... now there's 3 cars in melbourne running around with copies of my kit and I still haven't had the time to put mine on... although Adam's one I don't really mind (red one at Autosalon) coz Adam's a mate.

...and I still haven't had the time to put mine on...

Hmmmm.... aaaaaaahhhhh..... mmmmmmmm.... yep.

I'd hazard a guess that it's never gonna be put on

[funkymonkey]

I seriously can't be f**ked anymore... I originally wanted to build a show car, but after moving to sydney (with the abysmal road conditions) and getting more and more involved in motorsport the less practical such a big kit seems. So not looking forward to babying the car around and parking the car ever so carefully once its put on.

l saw a beautiful blue/purple widebody R32 GTR flying out of the docks in Glebe (Sydney) yesterday. Couldn't take a pic quick enough.

How much of the orginal rear quater panel is removed and at what points is the widebody quater fixed?

[ali-turko]

the put the wider guard over the top of the original

[funkymonkey]

you have to cut away part of the inner guard, and part of the guard underneath, and fabricate a new innerguard so the wider wheel dosen't scrape on anything.

the widebody guard goes right up to where the boot joins the guard, the point where the roof meets the body on the c pillar, and wraps just inside the door jam in front (so that there's no obvious joins when you look at the doorline) and at the back goes to the tail light. If you do it properly it makes a totally seamless blend.

[wilch]

here what it looks like with wide wheels

heres another one in melb with wheels to suit

You sure, you've posted 2 gtst's there and both of them have a very different front bar to yours.

I am against modifying wheel arches and bonding glass to metal panels. It will crack,

There is one GTSt cruising around with the prelim copy that was pulled off the mould (which was supposed to have been destroyed, but I'm guessing that was sold too... heh). The owner of that car's just rivetted the kit onto existing guards. Without it being blended it looks like arse with a sprinkling of shite.

Some people should be banned from tools !
