Hey all,

Please leave a comment on why you made your choice.

I am leaning more towards option 2.

OPTION 1 - URAS kit with 19's. With this option the car can not be lowered much as it be too low and hard to tackle drive-ways etc. This was the look (sort of) that we had on Cefiro. Looked great but was a bit hard as a daily.

OPTION 2 - Nissan Factory option kit with 19's and dropped. Low cars look hot in many ways. Would be easier as a daily driver. Parts would be stronger then the aftermarket kit. Leaves a little more in the pocket todo something else like interior,etc

OPTION 3 - No kit with 19 or 20's and dropped. This is what I call the "300C" look. with the right colour will look grat. same advantages as above. Con is less "modified" look.

with all options I will lip/roll and pump the rear a little. Might get a boot lip or no rear spoiler at all (it has a GTT rear wing at the moment). Thinking of a rear window spoiler. Eyelids are a must. Some sort of bonnet mod: ie: small vent on a side, large vent in the centre or BA XR8 bulge in the center. Interior work is on the list but in the air as the seats are mint...just needing a full steam clean everywhere. but having saying that a nice retrim would do the trick.

thanks for your opinions.

"No kit with 19 or 20's and dropped" without QUESTION. 20s preferably...and here are my reasons;

(1) The other options are far too common

(2) More practical to be driven (without a kit)

(3) R34 sedan suits the VIP look perfectly due to the rear arches sitting so much lower than the fronts...which makes it look 'lower'

My 2c!

Cheers,

Chris

I would go the no kit and riding on rims. Just make sure they're not some shitty 7" wide wheels. :)

Not only does not having a kit look better (at times), it'll be easier for you as a daily. I just like cars which look nice and simple. Having a kit will give you attention from cops and I'm sure no one wants attention from cops.

if i went a kit

i would go uras all the way round,

or at least side and back,then use the factory nismo front(with skyline written on the front)

an as far as i no its illegal to have 20's as the r34 come out with 17's

llegaly your only able to go up 2 sizes from factory

I'd pick Option 2:

The nissan factory kits actually look good at the same time being discreet. Wheel choice will play a big part and lowered is a definate.

The Uras kit has been done to death and although looks ok will not look any good if its not lowered.

Heres mine :D

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
