It would be far cheaper and less hassle to buy a pillerless bluebird.

You would probably need doors from the pillarless anyway as the windows would be different.

Not to mention all the work you'll need to have done to the chassis and floor for extra strength as you will be loosing a lot by removing the pillars. Will need a way to sort out body roll etc...

Your going to need real deep pockets to make it work, that is if you are intending on doing it properly (engineered etc.)

Don't know the answer but I assume you mean like how the Magnas have the windows go up without stopping at the top frame of the door?
Ill fight you. May even throw a bar of soap your way. Maybe a few wax strips and some clip on brembo brake calipers for your fooly sic civic.

Vithy, pillarless means... No B pillar.  The pillar between front and rear doors.

You are talking about having frame-less door glass (which my bluebird has) but not being deleting the B pillar as well.

Which is a waste of time and you'd need to use pillar-less doors anyway.

just to confirm here - pillar-full to pillarless = not worth it by FAR. literally, buying an actual pillarless car would actually be cheaper.

There is a B pillar. It just doesn't go up to the roof. Buy a pillarless Bluebird or save for a Subaru or 350Z if thats what you want.
Your car may be able to go faster.
But I can go any where. except into a garage, underground carpark, bridge...

2 sticks and manual locking hubs. have to get out to drive it around
Good old Nissan.

KA's are the shit. According to all the info on the site, they are better then sliced bread and thats saying something.
