[TUnity2]

Friggin hott man. i love the GOLD.

[DRFT]

[Buffalo Daughter]

FUCK nice man. Side skirts indeed.

[old_s13]

not bad, needs side-skirts and better lighting.. the sidemarkers, signals, and headlights look janky. everything else looks good.

[KiDyNomiTe]

Get sideskirts and a rear bumper. Otherwise it looks real nice.

[Dousan_PG]

hehe sides and rear for sure
but looks OK so far.
dump those ugly as hell turn signals and those hideous sidemarkers (put the stockers on or get clera ones)
keep it up
also
CUT YOUR REAR TOE HOOK OFF!!

[aa87]

Toe hook? J/p.

Did you spray paint the wheels or what? They look really nice.

[kuruptR]

My lights are all messed in the front... lol

I need to know where i can find some replica or real kouki sides skirts for cheaper than average

[zombieman]

what i would like to know is if you powder coat those rims or did you do it yourself. i'm trying to get that gold color code for my rims.

[oojpeeoo]

wuts up with the gap between the fenders and the front bumper?

[Siizzzoooo]

what kind of spacers did you use?

[Ricer240sx]

NICE!!!! i plan on going with the AIT Kouki replica kit and some Z rims lol what did u do to color them jsut paint them or did u get them powder coated?? i think ill make mine a little more twards the volk bronz color ;)

and i agree with the others in saying u at least need some skirts!!!

[TokyoNights]

Yea you did a goo job so far, Ive allways liked the rear wipers on hatches.

[wanganwonder]

hot damn!

ait makes a kouki replica kit?

[Andrew Bohan]

Ph33r!!!11

[mad s13]

damn...that is pure sexual chocolate...lol

i agree on the side skirts and rear, but the factory style pieces are all you'd need...but if you don't want em then no biggie your car looks great...very clean...mine will be that clean one day

[SHIZ-IT]

the pics are nice taken and the car :bowdown:

[Dousan_PG]

AIT isnt replica of kouki 180sx
its a poor quality copy of VERTEX

very very different

[CoasTek240]

KRUPTR- answer THE ? BOUT YOUR WHEELS, I JUST PICKED UP A SET OF Z32 WHEELS AND I WAS GOING TO GO WITH THE SAME COLOR. I THINK IVE SEEN DUPLICOLOR WHEEL PAINT THAT COLOR. I'M NOT SURE THOUGH.. HELP A BROTHA OUT...LOL

[black s13]

yeah, and who makes that front? im having trouble find more moderatly priced copies of the kouki front.

[FoCaL]

wuts up with the gap between the fenders and the front bumper?

:werd:

Z32 TT Wheels 225/50/16 front and back.

Also by TT wheels front and back do you mean a TT 'set' as in 7.5" wide in front and 8.5" in back? Usually when I hear TT wheels front and back I am used to seeing 8.5" all the way around, and I can say by your pictures, your fronts are not 8.5".

[kuruptR]

What i ment was a set of TT wheels.

About the wheels, goto walmart, and pick up a gold metalic paint for metal, thats what i used, it worked well..

My buddy painted his 86's snowflakes with duplicolor gold, it also worked good! dont be afraid to spray your wheels, you can always flat black them later! ;D!

dousan, ill need that rear toe hook for toeing. :aw:

Fitment, well thats what you get with fiberglass.

the carbon fiber hood warps from the heat. Expands and contracts in differnt positions, sometimes it sits good...in winter.

the front bumper actually fits perfectly, but i wanted to use USDM bumper support. The bumper doesnt really fit with the bumper support there, unless i trim or cut it. so i tied strapped it on, it fits okay enough. I dont plan on hitting any car shows up, so banged up beater it is! :ughug:

[mistaanime]

thats hella sick...thoguhht the car woulda came wit sides..since it's in canada.nice

[kuruptR]

Chuki aero in canada only came on the SuperHicas models as an option. Its rare if you see a hicas with out sideskirts/rear lip.

[black s13]

so who makes the kouki front?

[FRpilot]

so who makes the kouki front?

that would be nissan.

[black s13]

obviously.

reworded: who makes the glass kouki rip-off with integrated kouki lip?

better? i figured it was assumed i was asking about his bumper, seeing as how i asked the same question 7 posts ago.

[po1z5che__]

not bad, needs side-skirts and better lighting.. the sidemarkers, signals, and headlights look janky. everything else looks good.

lols just wants you to buy from him :fruit:

[FRpilot]

there are a lot of companies. off the top of my head. g-grow and hotroad. those are still goign to be imported so they would still cost a lot. you can get the nissan oem kouki package for aobut 1000. the knockoff quality jdm still cost about 500-600 for the bumper + fees and shipping. and then you still have to buy the turn signals and position lights. another 200-250.

[black s13]

i was asking who makes his specific bumper. i know of all those companies, i know what it costs. i just wanted to know what bumper is in the pics at the top of this thread.

[No Motiv]

lookn good....nice offsets..flushy

[bztech]

Car looks good.. very nice. Digging the front.. the rims look awesome in gold.. very very nice car :)

You should take the car out and do some "good" pictures of it..

clean background free of distractions such as other cars, etc.
soft lighting of early evening or early morning
better angles.. get down low and up above. Standing holding a camera at eye level produces a picture that looks just like that.. 5' off the ground kinda un-interesting..


do something like this..

[mbmbmb23]

Awesome looking!!!

[dvdevo]

bztech shoulda crouched when u took that pic, or whoever.

[240KAT]

You wanna go to a junkyard and pic me up these side skirts and rear lip from a HICAS car? I'm all about more HICAS Stnd. Parts.

[revat619]

kuruptR, if you're looking for a nice replica of the kouki side skirts, i would suggest eastbear. I believe they're urethane too, but dont quote me on that, i could be wrong.

[shadowz]

Such a sick ride you should see it in person, crazy stance too

[kuruptR]

not exactly the easiest thing to find in a junk yard lol... its even hard to find an 89.

[Dousan_PG]

Eastbear copies are not the same as OEM. By that i mean the angles and curves are different.
At first it doesn't look bad, but in person its like "WHOA" those are pretty ugly.
You can tell they aren't OEM design. They don't look nearly as good as the Hotroad or G-Grow versions.

But Hotroad is more flared out than OEM Like a mix between OEM and BNSports almost (But not nearly as wide or low as BNSports...)

[brianglawson]

looks good bumper fits like tard though, man, looks like it need to lean up

[Dousan_PG]

looks good bumper fits like tard though, man, looks like it need to lean up
All he needs to do is stop whining liek a bitch and bend the bumper bracket. Or maybe his headlight brackets are bent down.

Either way, people are so fucking stupid. Fiberglass doesn't make anything fit bad or good. ITS A FUCKING MATERIAL. Mold design and precision makes things fit good.

[chukilabs]

yeah no doubt, its fiberglass, it warps and looks like crap most of the time... his bumper actually fits perfect with out the bumper support...

[Powashiftin]

what kind of spacers are they?

[DoriftoSlut]

yeah no doubt, its fiberglass, it warps and looks like crap most of the time...
No it doesn't! Jeez people. How many surfboards do you know of that are warped? (Not dented or pressure points. I mean warped fiberglass? About 0. Fiberglass is a very rigid and shapeable material. Urethane actually worps a LOT more because it is soft, flexible and pretty heavy. Fiberglass is not flexible that is why it always cracks and chips and stuff...
