Not sure to tell you the truth.

Saw it in a magazine, think it ruins the lines of the car big time. But to each their own. If I come across a distributor I'll let ya know.

with the front and rear they have on there, i agree with the ruined lines. but with the final konnexion front and the kaminari rear i think it'd look bai really like the way it emphasizes the window and ground lines tho. the deep dish's are a bonus

Uhm, it is a kit...but retail on it is probably more than twice what you paid for your car...then there's the bodywork and paint. I wanted a widebody..so I made one:



We sell those rear over fenders if you're interested. The front fenders and aero are Final Konnexion, the roof wing is by Real Speed and the nose panel, wing, and rear fenders we made.

That would be the most beautiful Curve-AD widebody kit. It is produced in Japan and there are no US distributors in my knowledge. Also it is a 2+2 kit and I am unaware of coupe availability. It is expensive.....

Just so you guys know "Curve" and AB-Flug are one in the same. Curve is a design concept experiment for them.

Curve-AD and abflug are not the same they collaborate on several projects together but are different design houses.

No, I am correct. In fact, here is what the shacho (President of Abflug Group) has to say about it:
Abflug Shacho wrote:In the past, Abflug had done independent development as カスタマイザー, "Curve AUTO Design" and our business began working in technological cooperation, simultaneously to leap our future and to expand the business to a foreign country. The brands were integrated, this became known as "the Abflug" group. Abflug and Curve had collaborated together for a long time, fusing the design modeling and tuning technology. Curve Shop (Kanagawa prefecture Yokohama city) as a Abflug brand showroom, offers the customer a place of business to talk. The existing Abflug product and the Curve product are still sold of course it means that the exhibition of the complete demonstration car has gone, it is possible to view the present car though, not only complete car production, concerning custom-made production you receive. The present Curve brand product starts developing so far in the same way as the sub brand of Abflug. Please expect new life from Abflug which started newly from 2006.
They are now one in the same. Like I said.

ABFLUG makes the beet kit, its available threw one or two suppliers down in the US, I had started a thread on it a while back and i think it was about $4800US and comes with 11 or 12 pieces.

WidebodyZ -- did you sell your Z yet? I saw it up on ebay a few times and was like WTF who sells that! dont sell it damnit.

wow... ok. i didnt even notice that it was a z33 bumper... i had thought it was going to be the whole front fascia including the headlights and hood and fenders. i saw that but just assumed it was an aftermarket front bumper. thanks tho for pointing that out. now i see what you mean.

TT2+2... idk if you are still interested in the curve beet kit... all that is included in the kit is the front and rear fenders, side skirts and a rear diffuser. the other body panels are just a mix of different parts.TBK front bumper, Abflug rear bumper, spoiler off of a skyline r34 gt-s, Ganador side mirrors and a D-Speed hood. (i found all this in the article)

and as nsr z32 said... it was in a magazine... it was featured in the july 2006 edition of modified mag.

"I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!" (Mugatu)I swear you are blind. It's NOT a Z33 bumper. It bolts on just the same as any other Z32 aftermarket bumper..how do I know..it was on my freaking car that is posted IN THIS THREAD. IT IS AN AFTERMARKET FRONT BUMPER AND WIDE FENDERS. Please..LOOK: The front bumper, front wide vented fenders, side skirts and rear bumper are ALL Z32 2+2 Final Konnexion. The only thing Z33 is the bumper lenses.

And tg I sold it to a top bloke from down under. It's going to Aussieland after a short stint in Houston.

If anyone is keen for one of these Beet kits in either 2+2 or 2 seater format check out this link

http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/...63236

I have organised to import a kit and make the moulds, I am also having it modified to suit 2 seaters for the UK and US markets and will also supply it with a custom made rear bar for a full bolt on style kit. See the thread for more details and pricing etc. All in AUD

Cheers

That is a very nice setup Z. Reminds me a lot of the early time attack/drift cars in Japan. Very clean. I don't give a lot of props to guys that walk a different path, but I am very impressed. Nice.

Allright, you've peaked my curiousity. Let's see some more. Interior? Engine?

Just for the record on widebody's there are a few different ways to go. You got your custom pre-made kits and of course the custom.

Here is a link on a post I did some time, when I was doing my own widebody. http://www.twinturbo.net/net/v...ch=73

http://www.global-Z.com is a good JDM company that makes a fender flare for the Z32. Not sure if production is still up on it, but none-the-less there it "was". Others available are with Kaze, Strosek (aka V12 sales for us in the states), Do-luck overfenders, Fred O-pert and some other. That is all I got off the top of my head.

Personally I prefer the custom way to go. But I do like a well placed overflare like the one on Widebody TT's.

Here is another custom sheet metal one.

Mine. Wanted a cleaner, almost stock look.http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/...rc=ph

A good friend of mine, CollegeBoy, his widebody which came out very clean.

Oh yeah, this the Strosek kit. Clean, but not really my particular brand of vodka.

Widebody Z - where can I get a pair of the rear over-fenders? You mentioned "we" but I wasn't sure where to go....

Please advise and thanks in advance for your help.

not feeling the front but the side and rear is definitely my taste

I especially like the thin spoilers :DWe sell those rear over fenders if you're interested. The front fenders and aero are Final Konnexion, the roof wing is by Real Speed and the nose panel, wing, and rear fenders we made.
