you take away the body lines of an S13 and you take away what makes the car look so good! its been done, and it always looks terrible. if you want a car with no body lines, sell your 240 and go buy a chevy cobalt.
but, then again, you werent part of the car scene back in the late 90s/early 2000s when people did dumb shit like that left and right... and molded body kits... and under-car neons... and color match interiors... and invader body kits... and color matched tubing in the engine bay |

HAHA nice man. Yea I love the Green, I'll eventually get it repainted the same color. I will be getting rid of the wing though sometime soon and going 5 lug to rock baller wheels. And I'll always stay Chuki. Did you swap to a silvia front?

^that red s13 might be the only exception met the guy in VA, pretty cool guy, and I think the spirit rei car deleted the top body lines??
but any ways, 99% of the cars that delete body lines, juts look so out of place and horrible. its like taking a Shelby cobra and squaring the curves of the fenders. |

I really love the Greddy rocket bunny, super aggressive. But until I have $3k laying around for plastic, I like the simple touch. I do also love the gentleman kit, but on other people's cars. The s13 has natural beauty that only needs ground accents such as lip/skirts/valance. But the wangan wing is so damn big and awkward. I'm planning to shave my stock wing and apply a small lip spoiler similar to a TL-S or M3.

but yeah, the entire point... i come from a very different time of what aero looked good. instant gentleman is an atrocity to ANY S-Chassis as the S-Chassis IS NOT a VIP car, and the RocketBunny kit screams "LOOK AT MY JAPANESE NASCAR!" since the guy who actually developed the RocketBunny kits modeled them specifically after trends in NASCAR aero design. im not saying that all old school aero is awesome... let us not forget the Abflug or Veilside kits... but there was a time in the early and mid 2000s when companies like Vertex and GP Sports nailed S-Chassis aero like no one else has ever been able to come near! now it just really seems like anything new that comes out is just TRYING to be outlandish and weird looking! |

Have you thought about making Kouki side skirt reps? I spoke to Forcewerkz about it but they didn't quite follow through on anything. |

i have a lot more s13 stuff planned (kouki stuff is on my list... summer probably), im not doing anything until the aero bumper project is done. i was SUPPOSED to have my prototype this week, well... that didnt happen and im a little more than irritated right now with the people producing it.

I don't see how two lines makeup the s13.. Red one looks good because of the added door pad I think. The white one does look too plain..hard to judge without seeing the entire car. Maybe leaving the lower one would help. I'm not one for body kits and I'm not even sure if ill ever get a kit for my car. I wasn't modding cars then but I was into them quite a bit, always thought the style was cool, would never own all that shit but was still awesome to see.
