rx8 w/ lambo doors
#26
2.5 inches at the lowest point. When you open the door you will either have to hold it until fully open or invest in actuators, because if you dont you will probably rip the fender off of the car, keep in mind it is around 250 pounds of pressure behind those struts.

Ηey veilside...The gt factory kit had 4 struts in the box right???You installed them right???So the door can hold up and open-close easy right??No extra force needed to open or close or hold it open right???strong mechanism...

I saw an rx8 with lambo doors this weekend at a car meet. I didn't get a chance to meet the owner but it looked good. There was alot of room to get in/out.
Pictures are from my camera phone.
I have no info on brand or cost, sorry.

It is not bolt on..In the site they say so but its for commercial only...
Anyway...It needs a lot of job...I recently send the kit to the bodyshop which wil install mine and they told me they need a lot of job.And they also need arrounc 900+ usd to install it....Wow..The price of the kit twice...Anyway i hope that money will be the last spend this year...

From the below pictures, one can clearly see the diff between the door kit offer by 2 difference companys
1st picture show that the hinge is a C shape design, and the door is being support by this Cshape thing.
and 2nd picture show that the door is support by the hydraulic piston
I;m going to buy one set of the door kit but do not know which is better. so many companies selling and do not know who to buy from
Can anyone advice?
Thanks

trust me, go with gt factory because the other kits just don't look right or its nearly impossible to get in and out of the car
they have a new bolt-on kit which my car was used to prototype with so take a look at gtfactory.jp and give them a call

Gt factory is the best but need a VERY PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION or you might have problems...I am going to install second strut in each door and i made new panels on the door cause i had clearance problem when it was fully open and made some scratches...
