Its a very nice kit and that is one of my insparation cars...however I dont know price wise if thats in my budget for aero..I have not looked into prices yet but Memoryfab has the Aimgainkit for $1800 and I was quoted $350 shipping..so total of $2150 shipped is not bad and MP would be $ $2925...So if I end up deciding to strech by budget it will most likely be for the MP kit...I am pretty sure that wont happen, but you never know..I have alot of other investments going on right now that come first.:thumbsup:

are you sure memory fab has the kit? they say they have a lot of stuff, but i'd be careful. i think we've had problems with them before. i've heard good and bad things about them.

I would go with Wald due to the price and how it looks but it has to be modifyed to work since the JDM bumpers are shorter. Go with Aim Gain.

THe other kit minus the eye lids,fenders flares and spoiler


IMO this is the smoothest less noisy kit, no extra holes and little grilles "if you would" around the fogs and such. Very smooth and big or tuff looking.

Insurance....minus the wing and fender flares? thats just crazy, you got to add the wing and fender flares. Don't forget about the exhaust that extends 4 inches from the bumper ;-)

I was thinking the same but then I start to think about how much labor cost involved to make it fit just right might equal the price of the other kits? Another thing depending on these wheels I am looking into might call for a bigger body aero kit to match the offsets and width....

i think that's part of the issue at hand.... we don't know what wheels will be married to this setup so we are choosing according to whatever we think looks good, but without knowing the wheels......you might end up with a tragedy.....now will you kill the suspense and show us the wheels? hahahahahahaha

wald ftw.....although in my prior sc life i heard horror stories about wald and fitment. just a little bit of info for you in making your decision. Truth is any one of the four you picked would be hot, but in my opinion that cleanliness of the wald kit can't be beat. Have you figured out where you're gonna order it from.... and if so, what's the price?

Not trying to be a tease. I wanted to make sure these wheels where in my hands before I posted any pics.
here are the wheel specs;
19"x9" (front; +10mm offset, SLO-disk); 19"x10.5" (rear; -8mm offset, SLO-disk)

R U physic or something:eek:

I am still trying to keep it line with EXE styling. I think I can pull it off with these wheels..

One of the reason these 4 kits are the choices that I think would look good...I really like the wald kit but,,,,,,,,,,I would rather replace the front bumper with and oem nissan Cima bumper to complament the wald kit better..I just love the way the JDM CIMA has shorter bumpers it makes the car look tougher....All these kits are nice as hell and everytime I look at Benjis car I think damn it would be nice to see a white wald Y33...with some mildly aggressive wheels..

Like I said before I am looking for wheels that I will not require any spacers and I think I found them.:thumbsup:
