Well.. I'd assume it's "aftermarket" since there is a Skyline bodykit on it. Of course, I'm colorblind, so I don't quite know if it's a factory color or not.
Also.. that's a really nice kit. Too much mesh for me though (unless it's protecting an intercooler.) Finally, what sides are those? Oh yea! Post rear pics.

I always loved that R34 front bumper on the MC 240. Too bad the 95-96 version of it looks ass fabulous, otherwise I would have gotten it. Car looks real good man, post some more pics when you get a chance. :cool:

:eek: FWD offset on the rims kills it man!


Either get some big spacers or find some new rims with the "correct" offset.


Other then that its lookin good. Not a fan of the bumper tho. But each to his own. :)

That is a very nice car, love the black and red scheme. The 97-98 S14 is the only car that the Skyline bumper looks good on (well other than the Skyline itself).

IMO...I think it looks better on the 95-96 S14.

hey everyone thanks for all the positive feed back... as to answer some of the questions and comments....

looks good, is that a factory paint job or aftermarket?

its a stock paint job... i like the red alot and im thinking of staying with that color

looks great, keep the pics coming.. what suspension are you running

tien s-tech springs on stock shocks... but i will be getting the agx's soon enough

as for the mesh its just there till i get the intercooler (and turbo... of course), i was going to get a bigger offset but 650 for new rims and tires was to hard to pass up. i think the sides are nizmo knock-offs (got them at wholehyper.com) i couldnt decide on a back so i just didnt get one, i might get the bomex sides or a nizmo rear, i dunno yet. i do have the 95 tails though =).... as for mods not many...gf bought me an exhaust *its sh!tty* but i had to put it on for her... she also got me a red momo shift knob and red shift boot (not really a performance mod) =\ oh well im used to it now, i am hopefully going to do a turbo in the summer though.

what size spacer you think i should get... the offset is +42?

I'm surprised noone has said anythign about the gap between the hood/headlights and grill. Why is there so much gap? Are you missing the hood liner?

Bigger Offset?? WHAT!? Are you smoking? haha. I think you ment to say lower. shizle 42 offset? Um...5mm is the max I would go w/ out using longer studs. I think in your case you need a nice big wheel adaptor (They are kinda expensive) but w/ that you might have well just have bought some correct offset wide rims. Hmmm

well now someone else will nitekids... thanks =P jk

i was hoping no one would notice it.... you know how some of vis' products are and how they dont always fit right.. well my car is a prime example. one of my friends did the fitting so i let him get away with it. the sh!tty part is i think that half of the support of whats holding up the bumper comes from the grill sitting on the lights =\... oh well 150 for paint in install wasnt to bad. i'm to lazy to try and install it myself. i guess thats what i get huh?

and as for the offset i know im pretty screwed and i guess thats what i get for impulse buying. oh well... looks better than what i had on there (15x someting small, chromie six spoke icw's).

hehe for a second I thought you were talking about mine and I was like... but we fixed that!?!?!? anyway. I think Vis is really hit or miss, mine fit most excellently. Im still waiting on my hood from them. damn the back orders damn them!!!! dont ya love friends that do body and paintwork free or even cheap? I got my turn signal holes fiberglassed over and the whole thing painted free :D

lol my friend actually has mine its just not painted. when the front end gets painted it'll go back on. my boy does it real cheap I kick him a few dollars every now and then but he likes to experiment so My car gets to be guinea pig

I noticed it, but it doesn't look bad at all. I think it actually adds to the aggressiveness of your front end.

Awww, thanks http://www.greencountrymotorsports.com/phpBB2/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif I'm just being honest. I think your car looks awesome. Could use some spacers for the wheels, but it isn't enough for you to need to go buy some this weekend. Overall, I think your car is a 9.9 out of 10.
