hey, im lookin at gettin a kit for my r33 series one...

But i have only come across two places so far

1 ) Viva Garage, fair prices but very limited selection

2 ) Autostyling on main north rd, great selection of kits, but 2500 painted and fitted is harsh

anyone know of anymore places? ive already checked the workshop links on the forum, and none of them listed seem to do cosmetic mods

please feel free to put up some pics of your bodykits, as i still need ideas :D

well i am getting my kit from someone who got it from viva garage.......the kits that viva have are limited in selection but they hold some of the good stuff......not a lot of kits do suit the r33's....i have a s1 and i am getting TVRS front and BN sides and rear....which is what i was after....i guess it makes a bit of a difference when you have an idea on what you want your car to look like....

great.....now thats great lol....ahh well i am picking it up for cheap so a wee bit of rework wont hurt.....people also said that about speed dreams back in the days and i had no probs with their stuff

R33 DO-LUCK looks sexc source it from DMD Garage in QLD they will send it down for you well worth it and perfect fit. go to google and type in DMD image and you will find their website =] but yea do-luck r33 ftw!

2500 painted and fitted is a good price! remember these kits will need a lot of work to look good. I went full kit,carbon bonnet,ganadors mirrors and gtr wing and it makes the line look a lot better then stock but each to their own

Do your self a favour and pump and lip the gaurds the stock gaurds make the r33 look ugly and like a 380 lol

all kits available locally are pieces of crap quality-wise, and will cost AT LEAST $2,500 painted and fitted. When I got a kit for my S15 it cost $1,300 to paint and fit.

Try and get a plastic or resin kit - fibreglass just sucks.

do yourself a favour and get a stock m spec kit....dont ruin a nice car with a gay kit.

i agree! ever since i got rid of my bn sides, rear and trust front and put it all back to standard i never loved my car more! but that's my preference

otherwise here's the only kit i would put on a r33! if i remember a while back there was a white r33 called gtnik from WA who had this kit!

agreed!!!

sideskirts, rear pods, front bar + lip and your laughing.

i wouldnt reccomend autostyling and i doubt many others on this forum will.

Vivagarage are nice folk but yea...alot of their kits need rework and are hardly a perfect fit.

Wreckers / Ebay / Trader section ftw. Go down to doyle crash and get them to respray your seccond hand kit and fit it, theyl match the colors pretty much perfect and you wont end up paying too much considering the quality of work done!

    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works!
