martinmac Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Andy had Lambo doors on his car. From memory its down to getting the right kit, some of the cheaper ones will cause you a lot of problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT4 Zed Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I think its tacky IMHO. lambo doors are for lambos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bboyzeez Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 i basically love the look of japan cars and when u look at modded japanesse cars they roll with the lambo doors i do agree should be left to the lambos but dam if they fit without major problems then i want them lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made a guide of fitting them. Loads of details in there. I'd suggest you search for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmarky Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 basically i wanna know how much room is needed for them to open as in that last photo it looks like just same amount as opening door normally??? if madmarky hasnt read this thread by tomoz night ill pm him thanks guys Just read it now but pm if you need any more info. Basically imo LSD kit is the only kit worth buying as its the only one im aware of that is crash test approved. It isn't cheap tho retailing at around £1000. The kit can be fitted fairly easily yourself over a weekend but most bodyshop/mechanics can do easy enough. I wrote a guide if you fancy doing it yourself you can find it Here. As for your question about how far they open, with the kit installed your door will open up around half way normally, allowing you to easily get in and out of the car for when you dont want to raise the door. The gas strut on the LSD kit is perfectly balanced to the door with the door card on and goes up and down effortlessly, just remember to keep greasing them up as mine squeal something awful from time to time.

Squee Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Having read the previous posts in this thread, I'm assuimg that this ebay kit: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-350Z-ALMER ... 5886f93dd8 ..would be considered A) terribly naff, and B ) dangerous and unrealiable? I must admit I do kinda like the idea of snazzy doors like that. The ebay advert says they can also be fitted on Almeras - I currently have one of them so perhaps I could test them out on that S.

Chesterfield Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 But in answer to your question, its all personal choice. Lambo doors can look good on a Zed if matced with equaly dramatic styling/modification. (see madmarkys) Those doors on a standard car would probably be a bit daft imho.
