Lambo Doors

[Leigh]

i went with CF bonnet, need somethin to stand apart from a similar skyline getting around in the same area, thus why i was thinking the doors..

[SS8_Gohan]

Is it full CF or CF finish?

ye im pretty cops can give u a hard time about cf bonnets aswell, cause if u crash and ur cf bonnet breaks their may be shards of cf ending up in some ones eye or what ever

unless you were driving around with them open, i dont think the other guy would know you have them

MRDVS...after actually using a wolf 3D for the past 2 years I agree with Al that it is a great (& cheaper) alternative to the good ol' power FC

A mate saw a MY04/05 WRX last week in Fitzroy St, St Kilda with the lambo style doors. High wank factor IMHO.

Aftermarket ECU prob a good idea, but I believe cops go looking for them - aren't they illegal in Vic??

It wont be 100% CF, it'll be an imitation with just a top layer and fibreglass underneath.

Most can be made legal however, CF from my understanding can never be

Not true Ash. CF needs a layer of kevlar through it to create a crumple effect and prevent the large elements coming apart in slabs, thereby becoming a greater threat in pedestrian accidents.

They also need certification to state compliance with ADR's and indented stamping to that effect. At this time I am not aware of any manufacturers complying.

WOLF 3D HAHAHAHAHAH .. Tell me your joking right.. POWER FC.. OR a motec ecu.. Both top of the range ecu for your car cant go wrong. I reckon ecu.. dw about the doors unless you are wanting a show car

What experience have you had with the Wolf? I've had mine for 3yrs and have had no real issues with it and I know of others with the same result. You are probably one of those clowns that regurgitate what others have said because the tuner was hopeless.

My mechanic has become quite proficient with the Wolf 3D and has extracted as much power, if not more, out of an engine as one would with a PowerFC, and yet keep the engine safe. Unfortunately there are some tuners out there that can only tune one type of ecu, and have the audacity to label all others as shit. So you continue to be sheep and join your flock, but don't talk down a brand without an explanation why you have such views.

I'm contemplating them, purely for wank factor. no other reason except that I like the look of them

As far as i've talked to my engineer and experienced, lambo (or scissor doors) are legal provided you haven't altered the crticial structure of the car. As for practicality; i find them easier to use than normal doors for getting into and out of the car (i'm a pretty big guy as well mind you) especially in tight spaces.

The only downside is that they cost a fortune to buy and install.

(Sidenote: they are called SCISSOR DOORS not GULLWING; gullwing hinge up at the top a la the DeLorean from "Back to The Future"...dunno how people get them confused )
