You serious bro? Ride your car a finger from the ground (the only time BN looks good) and tell me if the $1500+ to import the REAL aero to the states was worth it.

Fucking retard.

Imo, if you're not baller enough to run the real shit to the ground, you shouldn't be concerning yourself with Bn aero in the first place.

Maybe so, but what if he simply likes the way BN looks & wants that look for his car? It is after all a hefty price to have an authentic kit, Not everyone can afford it & be "baller".

you have got to be kidding me, so explain the difference between "baller" and stupid to me. because you say it's baller to run $600 front bumpers in the ground and i say its stupid when you can have a replica for $200. if its a show car or a hard parker rocking knock offs...LAME, but if its an actual track car, most people hitting the track can't afford to piss away money on frivalous(sp) parts and "name brand" shit. the extra 400 bucks saved is enough for some extra wheels or tires. and if your tracking car those are your priorities...NOT impressing elitists on zilvia or buying status symbol parts.

I called chaser already, they used to make a bn replica for an s13. but that doesnt help me.

Hey OP, are you dead set on the BN Sports Type 4? The D Max Type 1 looks kinda similar

Im stuck between dmax type 1 , bn sport (replica, cant afford real), and uras type 2.

Dmax isnt too expensive, if i cant find a used uras kit, i can always go with bmagic's replica, but i cant find an affordable bn kit.

Someone has to know something.

Honestly, you should buy authentic parts whenever you can. Replica kits are so dodgy on fitment that just to get them to look remotely good would cost you more in time and money. Dmax is definitely affordable, and it should be pretty easy to find one at a good deal.

BTW, I also have a brand new Origin Aggressive kit for sale. Its a little bit more aggressive than the ones you're looking at, but at $600 its super affordable

You wont find me arguing on the internet about the validity of original vs replica parts, but i completely agree with you. Get authentic when its feasible..

bn sport is clearly out of my reach. period. So i look for alternatives.

as for the aggressive, thats a good deal. but not really my style.
thanks man.

dmax stuff is fire. I'd love to get the full type 3 and/or type 1 front bumper, but imho i'd need to go widebody.

Chaser makes a BN type 3 for the S14.

Look on their website. It isn't difficult, it is listed as B3.

They've made several posts in the advertiser section about blister kits and the B3 kit gets brought up in a few of them.

Even though im not looking for type3, the front bumpers are the same, somehow i missed that. thank you sir.
quick question.
is type 4 the widebody version of type 3?
from what i can see, the skirts and rear are LOOK much more aggressive. did bn even make a non widebody type 4 or should i be looking for type3?

thanks again.

To sell to Japanese kids with rich parents?

Welcome to the world of consumer options. Some people (like the ZOMFG PAY2PLAY- balla stauz) guys will pay for exclusivity or quality. Others will demand affordability and function.


BN ($1,500+) is hardly the most expensive Aero option out there, just like you have Shine Auto (~$900) and you can even dip down into the ebay sub $400 area.

Same goes for Coil-Overs, everyone leg humps Jic, Zeal, Stance et al, calling them "balla" never mind Penski, Ohlin, Koni and Bilstien.

Buy what you like, just don't cry that the quality of a sub $500 body kit is not great. But also don't be surprised if that $2,000 kit is not much better then a $900 one.

Yeah, that made a lot of sense.

A kit looking good or not has more to do with prep-work and install then how much money you spent on it. Spending more Money also does not always mean more quality.

But ground scrapping a daily around LA or pothole areas,

go knock off for awhile on kits.

First of all if you obviously don't like 240's so sell yours to somebody that will love it! By the way it was NOT a bargain sports coupe when it was released. The S13 sold from 16k to 20k do the math and that's like buying a 370Z or even a G37 these days IDIOT! Also look at the cars other than the Z in those times......nothing comes close especially in the american car co's.

So because I take offense at cry online babies that get all bent out of shape becuase someone does not want to use a $2,000 areo-kit I don't love my car and should sell it?? No wonder I never post around here.

Oh, btw a 1993 240SX base was $15,135, which is $22,200 with inflation. Or in modern terms a bargain sports coupe... ya know, like a Mustang V6 or 2.0T Gen Coupe, maybe even a Miata.

I really do not think that its the real deal kits are expensive as much as its the knockoffs are just really really cheap, and fitment is not the only issue with me cause if you spend the extra time and effort knockoffs can fit well.

its just the fact that they stole somebody's hard work and design. I am sure chaser can make really quality stuff but clearly they lack the ability to come up with their own ideas and designs. so in my opinion they run a shit company and make shit products.

WORTH IT.

Yeah, there is type 3 and type 4, then there is the blister. They are each a level up in aggressiveness. I dislike the blister kit though. As far as I know there is no type 4 knock off, but the BN sport USA site was selling them for 1100 bucks on sale at one point, which really is not bad...but more then I would want to spend on a track car.

i like blister for s13s, but on s14s (for some reason) BN decided to make the rear overfenders have the rear part of the skirt attached, so 1st dirtdrop and you blow up overfender not skirt ahhaha. :hyper:

i can't even imagine having the kind of power to spin the kind of wheel to fill a blister s14 kit! =P

but boy does it look awesome!

Relax, reason I'm pawning it off is because I can afford real shit now. And I got those sideskirts in shit, probably 2001 or 2002. I thought those WERE the real deal sideskirts. I didn't know they were copies of anything. If I did, I wouldn't have bought them.

All-in-all... whatever I don't care. I was intending to give OP some good advice, but I guess it's pretty pointless; my mistake. Buy your cheap poopoo stuff if it makes you happy. You know in your mind that the replica stuff is a knock-off of someone's hard work. I didn't know that when I bought those sideskirts many years ago. Fantastic.

Please don't take this as me being preachy, just trying to give some good advice to folks.

I wouldnt mind paying that for an authentic bn..
but type 4 isnt even on bn's site anymore, just the blister/defend.
thanks for clearing up the type 3/4/blister confusion.
Type 4 is REALLY what im looking for, but type 3 might be ok, i havent seen enough examples on different cars to really tell.

All-in-all... whatever I don't care. I was intending to give OP some good advice, but I guess it's pretty pointless; my mistake. Buy your cheap poopoo stuff if it makes you happy. You know in your mind that the replica stuff is a knock-off of someone's hard work. I didn't know that when I bought those sideskirts many years ago. Fantastic.

Please don't take this as me being preachy, just trying to give some good advice to folks.

i can respect that. to each his own.

This thread is awesome.

no its not.

/End Thread please.

First of all if you obviously don't like 240's so sell yours to somebody that will love it! By the way it was NOT a bargain sports coupe when it was released. The S13 sold from 16k to 20k do the math and that's like buying a 370Z or even a G37 these days IDIOT! Also look at the cars other than the Z in those times......nothing comes close especially in the american car co's. Also..... go back to school and learn how to spell it's sickining not sicking you DOUCH!!!!!
The irony here is staggering...

You argue like a 17 year-old trying to appeal to the rank and file forum members. You fail at it too.
Also:
It's SICKENING, douche.
If you're going to correct someone and their smelling, it does you a grand service to spell what you're correcting right, genius.
Either way, this thread has gone the direction as these type threads normally go, so I will kill it now.
