Nissan Gt-R Eibach Pro Kit Springs R35 Skyline

When looking for new parts you might find that lowering your car is one of the safest ways to get an aggressive look. It’s even more impressive when you can achieve that aggressive look in an even more aggressive car in the Nissan GTR R-35. This amazing musclecar is extremely enjoyable because it is a huge price jump from the previous models of skylines however it doesn’t seem that the public cares about the $90,000 price tag that many of these cars are carrying! Those who are lucky enough to purchase one of these beautiful beasts might be inclined to keep it the way it is, however we know an age of mass production lots of metal and high tostesterone no one will keep this animal of a supercar safe from the hands of tuners.

the springs are just amazing because they can lower the weight of the Nissan skyline R35 up to 50 pounds! That will in turn create some noticeable gains in handling and power.

The Pro-Kit lowers the GTR 20mm in the front and 15mm in the rear while having an as good as OEM suspension feel.

Overall 8.0 out of 10

We feel that this kit will improve the overall center of gravity and stability if you feel it’s needed in this massive supercar. The kit that we have seems to be put together very well and overall we feel our major complaint would be the slight change where you will end up driving the car once these springs it on, and that will be the nearest track.

2009-2010 Nissan Skyline R35 Seibon Dry Carbon OEM Style Hood Air Duct

Today let us review the Seibon Nissan R-35 GTR OEM style hood air duct. We do have to say that these are some of the best Sibon parts that we have seen in a long time. These parts show no defects, and the weave is meticulously perfect. The carbon fiber hood air ducts that we have reviewed simply replace the ones that come on the Nissan GTR skyline from the factory. There is not really any major description to provide other than that. However being assembled the parts can be beautiful to the eye when applied to a particular painted hood, or simply being added to a carbon fiber hood for the GTR. We prefer these inserts on to the white Nissan GTR because it is such a beautiful contrast and adds a bit of pizzazz to the aggressive styling. Searching around we have found these similar products on the following websites: http://www.viniatiskyliner35.com, http://www.gtrblog.com/tag/carbon-fibre/, http://www.2009gtr.com/2009/01/axis-granted-r35-gt-r-super-street.html

Overall we rate these inserts a 9.9 out of 10 because of the beautiful quality and careful craftsmanship that have been placed into the product. Given the price of a whopping $599 no room has been spared for error.
