It would be very wrong to subject your car to wear such a clown outfit.

they guy that had that kit built is a member here but I havent seen him in a while. He had a shop make it. I guess that shop made a mold and is making them for anyone now.

Buy my R33 tails if you get that kit ...or buy my lights anyway.

I'm sorry man I LOVE the look of a skyline R34 and i would buy one at the drop of a hat if i ever had the opportunity but... that kit is far from a Skyline. to be real it would look silly but hay... cars are like fine art everyone has there opinion of whats hot, if you like get it . That just my 2 cents on a 3 cent conversation!! Here is just a here is a comparision of how far it is off

This is a skyline r33

now a days I think companies just randomly throw "R33" "R34" or "Skyline" in front of any kit they produce regardless of the look/comparison...see it all the time on Ebay

If you want to destroy a good looking car that would certainly do it

Dang, that looks horrible.

Not to mention there are about zero similarities between a Maxima and a Skyline.

Also, not to mention the thing cost almost a thousand dollars. That is more than a lot of 3rd gens are worth.

I have to say and I would stay far, far away from that kit.

Try 1400$ !!! At least someone is attempting to give an alternative. Gotta give them points for supporting the car anyway.

na i dont think it even supports teh car....i mean if it makes the car look like crap, its not supporting it, just makes a 3rd gen look like rice.

i remember when this guy was on here saying he had a new kit for our car and he got uberflamed

supporting the car? it's someone supporting their own wallet. do you think they really care what the body kit looks like? if they can make a few bucks by throwing the skyline name out there they will...

cost for skyline kit...

1400 + countless hours to fix fitment issues

That dude that made those was on here months ago. He's realy shady and another one of those insecure victims of 'haters'. And if your thin skin and you call ppl haters, Screw you, you probubly have no taste.

Anyway, the kit is *** ugly. Unless you're going to the mexi-look. Make sure you compliment the kit with a giant ford mustang logo on your hood. Some bubble neon tint and your dope.

Haha ouch. guess everyone hates it lol. I wasnt sure on what to get and still arnt. But i guess the vote is in. and its Stillen. And about the stock. I trying not to put way too much into preformance cause last time i did that i totaled the car with temp plates HAHA. I put a 2.5 rs engine with turbo into a legacy ls. For now i want style. So far audio. gauges. lighting. rims. are set. i got basic preformance i guess u'd say. I got a intake. Sway bar. And new Warp-Y pipe coming in.

man dont let others sway you. If you like the kit get it...if you are happy then who cares about anyone else. Dont buy the Stillen kit because others like it...if you are going to buy it buy it because you like it.

Dont get me wrong I think that kit is ugly BUT I hate for someone not to get something they like just because others dont.

Yeah sold it to pervisanathema. I got another VE5 that had a blown motor and I am putting my 93 auto motor in it. I cant decide if I want to sell it or just keep it and enjoy it.

I have seen the front bumper on a 3rd gen that was in our caravan to the oxnard bash, didn't look bad on his car. It was painted to match his car color, and it was just the front bumper as far as I could see. Can't tell you how the whole kit would look.

That was the first mod i did to my max when i got it. I was on my way to a local store to order a Gt touring style spoiler when i saw one on a Camery and realized it would look gay and it looks way better without a spoiler... IN MY OPINION.

As far as the body kit i have to agree that the Stillen kit does look best on a 3rd gen max... i agreed with that so much i ordered on http://sportcompactonly.com it should be here on 2/6/06 according to the shipper... I just don't know if i can wait till spring before i put the kit and rims on..
