None really...

Besides the expensive kits that are sold in Japan, none really. What I did was custom mold a Stillen kit onto my I30, thats pretty much all you can do unless you have tons of money to ship one over from Japan.

Go to www.takakaira.com , I was quated $2114 for the kit shipped VIA freight{4-6weeks}. Go to body kits, nissan, Evolution and you will see a nice pic of a kit on a A32 Cefiro{aka I30}.

If you want to blow 5 grand on a kit there is a incredible body kit that goes by the name DIANA. If you are really interested in actually buying the kit let me know and I will let you know how to get it. Please don't bother me unless you really want to spend 5 grand.

There is also 1 other kit that is actually at Stillen which came from New Zealand but they will probably not sell you the kit because a I30, although they are identical. Contact Dean at Stillen at extension #182{1-800-576-2139} and try buggen him, I spent about 3 months harrasing him daily and almost got it but I gave up since my I30 is now 4sale. BTW I beleive I found the actual source of this kit in new zealand, go to www.prestigeautomotive.co.nz and email Peter for pics and info. The kit sells for approx. $1400 US + approx. $300-500 for shipping. BTW they take credit cards.

While I am at it there is one other kit but I have no clue as of where to get it and I am not very fond of it, It makes the I30 kinda look like a nissan premira a little bit IMO.

If you want to see pics of the kits I mentioned above, do a search!

well i may be wrong but i'd guess only the front of the I30 is differetn than the Max... it looks that way from a few glances... so you could order the front lip from Japan and get the rest from Stillen... i'll ask here i think i've seen a few Cefiros with bodykits here

No, the front AND the rear of the I30 are different from the Maxima. Only the sideskirts are the same.

there was rumor on the Yahoo club for I30's that stillen was going to begin production of a kit for the 1st gen I30... Stillen told me that they are putting no effert into the 1st gen body style of the I30... so I guess we are lost...or need to make our own.

tell me if I'm wrong.... but dont the Stillen kits just mask over your current bumpers? What about the lip? the widths and dimensions are the same, we just have that mouth looking piece inbetween the fob lights... I would imagine someone with some skill and a dremel with some patience could grind that a little shallow to accomidate the curves of our front end.

Re: I30

The I30 front bumper is larger than the Maxima's. I had to buy two front lips of the Stillen kit for the Maxima and put them together to make a bigger lip with both of them to mold onto the front of my I30. The shop that did my kit took almost the whole day to make just the front look good. It wasn't exactly an easy job.

Yeah, 17's I guess because you can't distinguish the ground in the photo, it sort of distorts it abit Its not a vert good pic. The car had just been washed if you can tell by the water everywhere. Should have some more piccys in a few days

What a great looking car, two questions for you.

What colour is it?

Are the springs from King in Australia, or is there another King Springs in NZ?

Thanks.

1. Blue - I guess you wanted the shade of blue. It was a custom paint job by the previous owner

2. Just King springs I think I guess from NZ if theres any difference

I30CeFiRo...

I love the way you molded the kit (all that work and customization, and it looks awesome with those 20"s, BUT you said it cost a "couple grand". Couldn't you have imported an I30 kit with full front and rear fascias for that much? Just asking,
