i actually just use the OEM bumper and add lips with alumunium, then repaint it. i did not make the kit too low because i don't like it.

WSX kit is still the no.1 kit for me..

post-33033-1278406035_thumb.jpg

It used to be my fave, although it's undergone a few remodelling phases since the first design. Still annoys me they never made a rear bar to go with it. The pic below is the first inception of the WSX kit, originally modelled off the Nismo 400R front bar.

Fk would have to be the fave now.

im not a fan of the original WSX 400R copy, im glad justin decided to change it. an aftermarket rear bar would look out of place, if you can find one the later model stock rear bar is a perfect fit with the skirts..

This is my old front bar, had 'Freedom' stamped under the fibreglass.

That front bar is odd looking, the upper part looks very square & the bottom looks quite rounded. I can see why Justin remodelled the WSX bar, it would've been a nightmare to fix with all those little flimsy bits in it. The newer one is still pretty decent looking but not worth the money they're asking.

it does look a bit awkward, but better than a URAS and was a really good fitting front bar.

and yes they ask insane amounts of money for a genuine WSX kit, i think trademe has quite a few fakes..

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      By sonicii · Posted

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????

      Looking for autoelectrician in Perth who can do the OEM to double din stereo upgrade.

      Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
