Can anyone sell me or direct me to where I can get some trim clips (5) that locate the grille between the headlights on a R32 GTR. I have two broken clips and this means the grille pops out of its mounts. THANKS Glenn

Sydneykid, Thanks for putting your time and experience into this forum - much appreciated. I have read through as much of the content as I can find and would be appreciative if you could confirm my interpretation of what is ideal for my car. I have put this on the thread rather than a PM since others may benefit. First some background I recently bought a 91 GTR with factory suspension including shock absorbers (98km) except for what appear to be tein springs which drop the car about an inch. I use the car on the road and not the track. The car handles well but crashes a little on bumps. I don't know if any of the bushes or shocks have been replaced. I recently installed 17x9 wheels with 255 tyres which accentuated a problem which must have been there from the start. Car pulls slightly to the right. Got an alignment done and the caster was different by 2 degrees on the front. I couldn't see any obvious damage to the chassis or the caster rod. I am not sure if the bushes were of differing condition. I believed the suggested solution of new adjustable rods would be a good one....out comes the credit card and some cusco pillow ball tension rods are in the post - should have read this forum first........... So in summary should I: ....get the tension rods installed and aim for +5 degrees positive castor with slightly more on the LHS. Thanks in advance - advice such as yours is gold given most shops are just young kids selling off the shop brochures. Cheers Glenn

Thanks for that - can't hurt to try. I have had the wheels off myself so will loosen them and then use a torque wrench to get the loadings even Cheers GM

I have the following symptoms with my GTR, HICAS light comes on most times I drive it and stays on Power steering assistance comes in and out - sometimes over assisted and some times not at all I will take it into a decent place for a review but it would be good to check a few things myself first. Power steering fluid seems ok Can you check sensors for dirt etc??? I think it is electrical as problem disappears if you turn the car off and on. Cheers GM

I have fiddled around with exhausts on a number of cars and it all depends on the level of muff........ My GTR had a Nismo exhaust - it was incredibly quiet, changed the muffler to a steel Luki sports muffler and it was slightly louder, ended up changing that for a straight through RPS muffler with three inch bore - now sounds beautiful. You can get a mild steel three inch exhaust made up with a resonator in the tranny tunnel and a straight through muffler on the back for modest money - this should sound right nice!
