I am about to get my hands on a Nismo front bar off a S13. Now it is a 90% fit to the S12, and i will be making them (slightely modified) for the S12's and was wondering if anyone would be interested? I will have one fitted to my car at the end of the week. Also i have made moulds for Nismo rear pods for the S13's and i will be making the altered version for the S12's. Pods are great if you dont wanna pay for a full rear bar. Also Bomex side skirts will be available, and within 2 months a Tommy Kierra style front bar (as pictured in my avtar) will be made for the S12's.

thats just some of the stuff i am workin on atm apart from fixing drift damage and making carbon bonnets.

I take it "bar" means front end, or "fascia" as is often called here in the States.

:kicknuts: Damn!

Another body kit being made and this is in AUZ!!

If you do make these I WILL DEFINETLY BUY THE REAR PODS AND SKIRTS!

When do you want the deposit?

SHEPPO3930date not saved · #11

rear pods are made for the S13's, they were finished lastnight, but the S12 pods are in development at the moment, so within a week or so, same with skirts. PM me to discuss pricing and where you live so i can get quotes for shipping.

Shiping should be easy, im in NZ, got relatives in Melbourne too...

Umai Naadate not saved · #13

my mates been trying to hunt down a nismo bar for his silvia for sometime now (the only ones he finds are either stuffed beyond repair or very overpriced) and he'd be soo pissed if i had one the s12!! :fart:

SHEPPO3930date not saved · #14

well i got a nismo front bar last night, its damaged but nothin i cant fix. gimme a few weeks and we might have a mould ready for production. I will also be offering a lip extension in the new future, make it look tuffer!

Pods mould will be ready within 2 weeks, same with skirts.

SHEPPO3930date not saved · #15

sundayssorrowgtrdate not saved · #20

SHEPPO3930date not saved · #21

sorry ppl, i have been SO busy the last week or so, havent done anything for a while. i will be working tomorrow on the pods, nismo bar and maybe skirts.

once again, sorry for the lack of progress on these items (and the carbon fibre bonnnets for that matter).

cheers

sheppo,
when the kit is done how much do yo want for a full kit (front, rear, sides and drift style bonnet), cause i am really interested.
would love to see the pics as soon as you have then

[email removed]

SHEPPO3930date not saved · #23

full kit without bonnet will be around the $700-850 mark (aus dollars), bonnets havent been progressed for a while due to the lack of space in the factory, they will be put on hold for a later date when i have more spare space and time.

the kits WONT be painted to match your car, they will be in primer.

Kit consists of:

Front bar
side skirts
rear pods

optional rear bar instead off pods, add $150 to price (hence the $700-850 price range).

hope this sheds some light........and remember these are S12 kits, not S13 kits, so dont go comparing my prices with S13 kits from other manufacturers. My kits will be 100% bolt on S12 kits. No other manufacturer makes them in australia.

you are my new god! haha.i'de kiss your feet but that would be a lot of money for airline tickets. ha. but yeah i am gettin a job so i will start savin soon. gracious

westside27375date not saved · #31

Keep up the work. I'm looking forward to seeing pics of these pieces.

SHEPPO3930date not saved · #32

have you's eva seen a vertex kit? well thats what the demo S12 will be (my car)................but it will be a one off production as the modification to the kit is a HUGE job, so the prices will be slightely higher for a S12 kit than a S13 kit, but for around $1000, a full kit bolt-on for our S12's is still a good price.

A kit consisting of Bomex skirts (slightely modified), Nismo front bar, and Nismo rear pods is going for $750. This kit is recomended for people who dont want an outragous lookin car and are not after the impracticality of a full LOW kit.

But yeah, i will definately keep you's posted.

Nebuchernezzerdate not saved · #33

I might have to mod my front bar so it's not so low but the rest of the kit shouldn't lower the car by much if any, just accentuate it's ride height, i think my front bar brings my clearance back to somthing like 90mm at the front tho....

salps12date not saved · #34

Mmmmm skirt and rear pods... YEAH PLEAZ!!!! :werd:

Do the skirts look like this?

SHEPPO3930date not saved · #35

skirts are the same, they look like vertex to me.

pods will be custom made to match the skirts.

Remusdate not saved · #36

Hiya, just wondering if you have pics yet :)
Also there was a picture of a purple S12 Silvia on this forum somewhere and I was wondering what the front bar on it was? It had SA plates if I recall?

Thanks

SHEPPO3930date not saved · #37

thats Will's car, its a EVO III front bar.................looks like his car is smiling :) give that FMIC good airflow and looks mental!! (we all love your car Will)

pics will come when the product is finished.

progress will hit full-swing at garage-13 this coming week as i am now finished uni and when my S12 is on the road........look out, possible a full vertex on it in 3 weeks :)

but watch this thread for progress
