do they offer a replica of the stock front lip? i currently have nothing down there and the others he offers aren't that good looking..

I'm interested in the front OEM lip as well as the M3 boot lip.

DRIFFT: Are you able to let us know how much it is to bring one in pre-painted?

lol, this was long time ago. already got myself a front lip

:-) yep ages ago.

Unfortunately trying to organise something like this is pretty difficult.

You need several people buying together and to be in the same state for it to work out best.

I can still contact the guy if anyone is interested but shipping single units for larger parts such as front bars is very expensive.

On a side note, is anyone is Aus making anything yet?

I know carmate have replica's of the WALD kit for the V35 but personally I wouldn't go there.

Yeah they have a few coupe bits and pieces but also not sure how much i trust them.

They do have a gurantee on their site that states all part will fit perfect if you go to their installers but again it's Carmate.

Hey Fox,

I'm happy to pass on contacts, but have sold the V35, so won't be looking into this.

It actually died off a while ago.

Also with the Aus $ being where it is, you ever need to be crazy or cashed up to even consider importing from the US. (which is what i was going to do)

As a guide, at the time I was looking at $650US delivery which can fit a fair few front bars, skirts etc, and around $400US for a decent front bar.

Check out the Traders section in the for sale section, I know at least 1 place is now doing replicas here in Aus. Not sure of the quality but have a chat to them about it. The guy I was speaking to in the US, guarantees 100% fitment on ALL products.

im still going to import my bodykit from the us.

the worst part about it is that shipping is the major killer, $800 USD to ship it to australia. better keep saving. its next on the list after i get my rims.

the kit is just a front bar and side skirts, the fb is urethane the side skirts are fibreglass, the rear pods i allready bought a set from usa last month so i have those, they are just the factory ones cost $130 delivered brand new allready in the right factory colour. the fb and side skirts are $1100 usd. ouch.

oh well tough times.... :P will take around 3 years i reakon for the AUD to recover... and im not waiting that long to mod my V!

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
