-JJR Crystal Tail Lights:

-JJR 5 Stud Conversion Kit:

-S15 Dash:

Im looking at doing an S15 Dash conversion to sharpen up the interior so I managed to find this one out of a wrecked S15 and it seems to be in pretty good condition just needs a good wipe down as its very dusty but I am still looking for the S15 centre console and glovebox etc so if you have any of these parts please let me know.

Also seeking some 18x9 and 18x10+ rims with reasonably low rear offset so please let me know if you have anything avaliable too! :)

Hey Phil,

Yeah I was actually talking to Shaun yesterday about some rims and actually decided to go with the Koya Driftek rims from All Wheels, after speaking to Ricky there this morning I am looking at getting the 17x9 with a +35 offset for the front then 17x9.5 on the back with a +18 offset.

I did check out the Professors that MXFLY has but unfortunetly they are a little more then I was hopeing to spend LOL :wink:

But anyway I should have the rims by this weekend if everything goes to plan so I will shoot an update once they are on.

Hey DRFTD,

Looking crazy!!
If the car is/was matt black I also saw you a few Sundays ago at Manly.
I love the ruffneck street brawler look!! I think matt black should be a factory option!!

Who fitted the kit for you??

I'm keen to know how the 5-stud conversion & tail lights work out - I saw them on ebay too.

Good luck with everything man...keep the updates coming. 8)

Hey All,

Thanks for the comments, I had the AVCR & SAFC fitted last week by Mitch who did a great job and have temporarilly mounted them on the factory cluster until I can fit the S15 dash and make a custom fibreglass mount where the passenger airbag used to be.

Here is how it stands atm:

Hey man, not sure if you missed the question in my last post or just didn't wanna answer (which is cool too) but just wondering who fitted the bodykit?? guards etc.
You mention earlier that it went ok...just curious if it was a home attempt or someone with experience did it...also what to look out for.
Cheers, Christian.

Hey Christian,

Sorry mate didnt spot your question yesterday, Ummm I fitted the kit with the help of a few mates at Northern Beaches Performance I am actually a laminator by trade so I have worked with crap quality bodykits over the years, but this one wasnt too bad at all, it is the third kit I have bought from Avi at Geforce and I would definetly buy from him again. There are a few tricks to getting the copied kits to fit but just keep an angle grinder handy and take your time to make it fit right, I do some work on the side too ( http://www.garagebodystyle.com/ ) if you need any help fitting it.

Thanks mate,

Robbie
