I have seen a few around - but with Skylines, because their doors are quite small - it doesn't look too good, but up to you ... you'll have to get someone that specialises in this type of thing to get it done right... good luck!

lol if the doors weight a tonne then the engine and the chasis weight about 400kg? lol just joking... nah mate, the hinge itself weights close to 20kg, the hinge won't snap But it is true its only for show purpose, you won't be able to open the door upwards from within the car. Also the later hinge models allows to open 30 degrees sideways so you can get in and out of the car without having the thing go upwards all the time.

but also consider that the door will not allign properly when in horizontal position.

Regarding leagalities, it is illegal, however my friend manage to get an engineering certificate for it for $500. It took her hell long tho.. I think 3-4 months to process.

got a bolt on kit, but wasnt very bolt on. right now i am getting my hinges modifided to actually line my door up properly. just to let ya guys know you dont always have to open the door by making them go up cause i found like i can open the door normally far enough to actually get out so i am saving on showing of the doors for shows and cruise.
