Mate if I were you, I would hold out and find a TRX kit. Fibreglass kits are weak as piss and in my opinion usually look like shit as well.
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.

rofl rofl, this guy up my st has that on his car with his plates [HVY 55S] bahahaha, stupid nugget, looks so out of place.. it doesn't even line up properly and from a certain angle you can see the front bar sticking out.
Don't let the opinions of the average man sway you. Dream, and he thinks you're crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you're lucky. Acquire wealth, and he thinks you're greedy. Pay no attention. He simply doesn't understand.

to be fair, it wouldn't be ANTRX if we stayed on topic.

and if someone wasn't cranky at Chr1s for something he said...

I am getting sick of the TRX kit I have  :-[ sure flame me if need be. 

The problem with the stocko kit is that while all fitting up nicely they look sweet, but then there are only pissy little screws holding the 20 million different pieces onto the rest of the car body.  After 15 years any kit is going to start to fall apart if not cared for from day 1.  So having met this problem i've grown tired of the 15 year old kit and think the car deserves a customised better fitting kit than the falling apart plastic bits held on by gaffa tape cos all the screw holes have busted up.  (you all know what i'm talking about to an extent)

so having said that, I'd look at the kits for N13 or N14 and especially the toyota corolla AE92 front

apart from the purple, all these look alright

They might be a bit expensive to chop up...you're looking at $1200+ for the full kit on that I think.

yeah man keep your eye out on ebay... and not just for s13 ones, but body kits in general... never know what comes up.
I got a sweet nismo article for $100 minor damage, and needs modding to fit U12... but for $100 i'm not complaining.
