Thanks dude they've been discontinued I believe for about the last 2 years? only two distributors in SoCal brought them in so there isn't many sets around in the states.

I completely agree! I didn't want to dump all my money into rebuilding the VS so I thought this set up made more sense. I'm still on the fence in regards to running a bomex lip and more aggressive skirts but I'm going to try and hold off on any more exterior for a bit

Sick shit. I dig this thread so far.
I just went through hell and back with my KA-T, if you have any questions I will likely have an answer. Feel free to hit my PMs. Also, I'm glad this thread has made me aware of those wheels. Now I have more fuel for when nerds say Cosmis isn't a rep company, cuz they definitely knocked off those badbois.

Cosmis wheels is definitely a rep company most their wheels resemble WORK/Rays wheels alike. I believe the Kids Heart wheels are loosely based from the R32 GT-R

Played with the suspension this weekend and this is the final result.
brakes feel decent for running the stock S13 BMC until I get some Z32 rear calipers

Another cool mod to consider before you put the KA-T in, get a 4.6 rear end. Just did one on my GF's car this weekend and def woke up the car.
I have one on my KA-T and it's a ROCKET lol

Where did you get that color for your calipers? I was looking to do the same color.
Really love the wheels on your car man. At first I was sad when I noticed you was getting rid of the gold works but the black wheels look killer on your car. Way better than I thought.

Thanks for the kind words about the wheels as well, it was hard to part ways with them but I’m happy with the new setup! Never thought gloss black wheels could totally change the look of the car this much.

Car has been on the back burner for a little but i think it's time to start working on the KA-T set up.
I had a friend stop by and snap some pics after a wash, It's hard for me not to fall in love with this car all over again.

The paint is good but I would love to pull out all the windows and fully restore all the seals/ repair anything underneath that needs rust proofing

Small update posts
nothing too interesting but i finally got rid of my stock exhaust because the piping to the muffler decided to rust through so I pulled the trigger on an HKS sport exhaust i'm really pleased with the sound, fitment and the price was a steal on black friday other than I've been replacing worn out interior parts here and there with the help of the nissanparts.cc guys, super stoked these are still available! as of now this is how she sits, i'm kinda getting bored of the look and want a more aggressive rear spoiler + the addition of a Silvia aero lip plans for 2020 is to finally start on the KA24DE-T build and to complete the rear Z32 brake swap

so its been about 8 months since I updated.. life has been crazy since I became a father March of this year
oh yea and then the whole covid thing happening car is pretty much the same, I was able to snag this rolling shot thanks to my buddy I did find a used Bomex style aero lip so that will be getting painted/installed soon still planning on finding and finishing the rear Z32 brake setup and also buying more suspension bits for the front. I also promise to have some sort of KA-T content before the year ends hope all of you are well

Normally I'm not a fan of black wheels, but this car pulls them off very well.
Good stuff you have going on here!

took me a while to find them so they will stay with the car for a while, I am tempted to get a spare set of wheels to change the look every once in a while though

usually gloss black wheels remind people of Motegi racing wheels
