I plan to purchase the lambo doors for my future Z. I was just wondering, which company's doors have the least problems and just overall which company's is considered the best. And what is a reasonable price I should look for, because I found some good prices on ebay than I did at other places. And my last question is, what are the problems I might have with these doors. And is there a way to avoid them.

 

VDC. Vertical Doors. http://verticaldoors.com/

I wouldn't go cheap on this, get it from VDC and IMO won't have as many problems.

 

I agree w/ nis350ztt...you'll get what you pay for. Finding a good and experienced installer will help you avoid some of the problems. Some problems you can't avoid - like the gas struts going bad or something like that.

 

one word...decah...best brand

 

so which one?

 

do a search. wait you live in burke. no one but i shall have a ziablo in burke!!

 

I think Decah was the first company to come out with a kit for the Z.

I haven't heard of VDC owners having any problems, unlike Decah.

Just my 2 cents.

 

+1. You can get away with cheaping out on rims or a kit, but you'll get screwed big time if you go cheap on a big mod like this.

 

lambo doors are cool looking, but the functionality is laughable. You have to adjust the hinges every few months and they wiggle as they go up. It doesn't feel like it's part of the car at all and it totally feels cheap.. I would like to have one if there were shock ones that are totally firm and doesn't ruin the fender panel like 80% of the kits I've seen.

 

Decah supposedly had fitment issues. I'm not sure what you mean by the doors "wiggling". Mine feel perfect and are rock solid. I have the vertical doors kit.

 

I have looked into this and have heard A LOT of horror stories about decah kits. I would go with the VDC. I thought about getting one but decided it probably wasn't worth the trouble for something that will just make more ppl jealous and want to key my car in the student parking lot. Oh well...maybe in a while.

But...if I did buy one I had already decided that it would be the VDC.

 

So VDC is the best brand? ok then, how much is reasonable for VDC? ( by the way, VDC stands for Vertical Doors and what the does C stand for?)

No friggin way I would pay THAT much for this..

 

Like I said (maybe it was in another thread) I got mine in a group buy that I organized with vertical doors and we got about 20 buyers involved and they gave it to us for $1050 shipped.

 

LSD has a kit out and they claim that it is the best. i saw their kit at sema show and it seemed very promising

 

I got mine in that group buy wit dr bonz...vdc is the way to go...heard some baaad things about decah...

 

I saw the LSD kit on a Z at the Geneva Auto Salon earlier this week. I just posted a thread about it on the SoCal board:

How much is the installation for this kit and where can I get it installed in NYC? which brand is superior? I hear Decah, Vertical doors.....????

 

No, not Decah! Those have caused more problems than any other kit. Vertical Door or if you wanted ti try the new LSD kit.
hehe...LSD

 

Sounds like we need another groupbuy.... $1050 sounds nice.
