Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior For those with Lambo Doors

Ok I ordered a Lambo Doors kit (JtAutoStyle Evo doors www.jtautostyle.com [jtautostyle.com] )

Until this morning I was pretty happy , but now I spoke with one of my friend that work at a Nissan dealer (his a mechanic) and he told me that the worst thing I can do too my cars is too put some lambo doors...

He told me that there a 350z who put a kit and the have to change his doors trim cause the way the doors open... broke the door trim (door panel)...

Is this true... ???????
Is this ever happen to you ???

He also told me that those kit are extremely hard too install !

How long does it take ?
How hard it is ???

Do you have any regret about your kit ????

Thanks everyone too light me up !!!

by the way here a pics of the kit :

I have that kit, but i havnt installed it yet due to the same questions. When i went to my body shop they tolod me i was crazy to do that due to door hitting the fender issue's. But im still thinkin of doing it. Its pretty ez to do really. Just take off your front bumper and remove both fenders (use a breaker bar) and go from there. From my tlakin with Voodoo he loves his and they are flawless but who knows. If your looking for some I can sell you mine maybe? I'll let them go for 775 shipped. Lemme know.


If know one buys them i'll prob just put them on

Hey what's up guys, I had this kit for almost about a year now and havent had a problem yet. I have no problem getting in or out and I don't regret on getting them. I really like it, it's a nice show mod.

I never installed the jt evo kit, i actully had jt install it and it took them about 3-5 hours.

Is this true that they hit the fender ????

Hi SSCarbonGTS,

How much did you pay for with shipping?

ok guys i have this kit and i have no problems with it the door open normal and than life up the only thing that went wrong for my is that i have blitz side and the door would hit them if you have the stock sides than you will be fine am a mechanic to and i do all my work myself to my cel the hardest part on this kit is fitment but you should have no troble doing this your self

these two pic are of my cel

I don't pay for shipping... my friend have a speedshop he made me 1175 $ plus taxe Candadian $ so they cost me about 1350-1400 $ canadian . he ordered 3 kit...

^^ your car is so fucken bad ass i love that hood of yours

I heard that you need too add extra inch to the wire in the doors ???

from what I've read they come with wiring extentions, but you don't really need them.. people are probably getting the hitting the fender thing from people not installing them right. you have to modify the fender to get the hinges to fit because they tuck behind it and if you notice there is metal sticking out on the inside of the fender that will be in the way your supposed to bend that over so the hinges will fit. celicaGTS2000 is it harder to align a door and get it to fit right on lambo hinges than on regular hinges or is it about the same difficulty as if you were replacing the door or the hinges regular?

no lambo hinges are hard because it is not realy a true fit with the regular hinges is realy eazy cause there is no sag in the door and the pacemant of the hingerare closer and smaller together. you are right about the finder to you do half to cut and roll it back i did not half to use any extention wire the stock one work fine.

ok, i have the lambo door kit as you probably know. i got it from carexcess.com
its a decah lambo door kit and a local shop near me ordered it for me. i also have the trd kit and have no problems with it hitting the side skirts. when installing it you need to take the front bumper and fenders off. when the fenders are off, you need to cut off a piece of the fender on the inside (the part closest to the hinge). i did not have to roll the inside of the fender, only cut. if the door hits anything or is too low or high so it doesnt line up then you can adjust it with the alan screw that is attached to the hinge. so far i have had no problems with the hinges or shocks and have had them for almost a year. everything fits perfectly and once in a while requires some adjusting of the alan screw because the screw loosens and the door wont line up correctly. after a while and after you break in the hinge, this will happen less and less. remember, different people have different company kits and some will have different fitment, but what i have is a decah kit and wrote about my experiences with only this kit. tonight around 10pm i will post pics of the exact piece that requires cutting and the location of the alan screw to adjust for proper fitment. heres a pic of how it turned out.

Thanks everyone !!!



Now I don't have regret anymore !!!!

here are pics of the hinges screw, and what to cut off the fender

the piece that was cut off of my fender...

the arrow points to the place where you can tighten or loosen the hinge

I have no problems with my lambodoors. and i have painted interior and the paint is still scrach free..

bobsi what's up with having two different wheels? any particular reason?

Props to satoshi for making it.

its a sweden thing...crazy, sweden people...

I'm doing my install soon, I decided to keep mine so I will make another intall guide and will tkae pictures of when Im doing mine. I figured I mihgt as weel when my car is up on jacks anyways.

BTW Does anyone know where I can find Extentions for the Cables?

Im also wanting lambo doors. Now im no little guy lol!! How hard is it to get in and out of the doors?? I have ppl that tell me its a pain in the ass and not worth it, and then there are others who say its not hard. Can someone with experience tell me??

ok, im not gonna lie, it is harder to get in and out of than a normal door. im pretty small and can get out even without lifting up the door. not everyone can do this, but not everyone can get in and out with the door up either. after a while i got used to it and so now its not a big deal anymore. if your having trouble getting out of your bucket seats now then its prob not a good idea to get the doors. im not saying its impossible if anyone is a big guy, but you will prob hate it after a while if you really have trouble getting out. i would only get it if your into the show scene and go to shows alot.

thanks for the pics jordon

GT2111, let us know the install goes !!

^^^ Will do Im starting it soon as I finish lowering my car!

Good luck
