Ok.. So I Saved Some Money And Want To Buy A Bodykit..


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I've been working a fair bit and saved some money for a bodykit (for my s1 33), i was thinking top secret or 400r or something similar..

But my question is where the hell in vic can i get them from (around SE suburbs) All i know of is driftline but their site is pretty useless and doesnt list any skyline bodykits or anything, and also where abouts you guys would recommend fitting and spraying? What are micolour like? price wise and quality wise?

I want it to look good, but doesnt have to be a really expensive (zomg showroom condition) i want a reasonable price for fitment and spray.

Can you guys suggest some places? I know theres a sticky but its fairly outdated

Oh and also what do you guys think of the top secret kit on a 33?

thanks, leigh.

well if u interested i have a trial rear bar for the 33 if u want. wanna get rid of it. fibreglass. only want $120 for it. cost me almost double that when i got it. unpainted at the moment, still bare fibreglass with gel coat.

pm me if u interested

I've used Imperial Finish Body Works on centre road in Springvale before for a repaint of some parts. Also my mate has on his 32 GTR. Both were top notch jobs. However both were insurance jobs so unsure of pricing. Give Murray a call, good bloke.

to fit and paint, i've already bought the kit just awaiting the courier.

top secret kit ftw!

keep us informed on how the job goes.. would like to see the kit up and running

yeah that seems like a good price, DT do some good work. Im goin there to get my kit and some panel stuff fixed up.

DT do some great work at very reasonable prices, I had my side skirt repaired (was cracked) and re-sprayed. Since they made a hairline crack in it when putting it back on they took it off and fixed the tiny crack :)

Excellent service and good quality work.

got my car back from DT, i wouldnt call there work the best but pretty much for the price i think it is good. One major problem is the wing rubs against my rear window seals.. :) so yeh going to try and fix it up myself, heres a couple of pics. (sorry bout quality phone pics)

Tell me what ya think

keep in mind its a n/a, a rare occasion indeed hehe. Will be going turbo in about a year.

btw whats the legal ride height? some are like 10cm.. which will fit some are like a can of coke.. which wont i dont think lol

Looks pretty decent

100mm is legal, so that nothing like the diff or exhaust hits something that's 100mm high.

N/A hey? Need 5 stud and big brakes? :P

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
