Hey,

There is a chip in my Harmonic balancer (r32gtst), as per picture, and just wondering if this is a big problem or not.

I called up Nissan and it costs $639!!!! for a new one...

I'm guessing I will need to replace this, and wondering if anyone has bought an aftermarket one that works just as well? If you can let me know the price, and where you got it from it would be appreciated.

Andy

Yeah, I had the same thing. At worst, you'll feel a shudder in the motor as it spins faster.

Nissan wanted the same from me, but I called around.

JustJap wanted $220

Unique Auto Sports asked for $100.

I got one of UAS, and it came the next day via courier. Problem solved!

Getting the old one off is a biatch if it's been on there for a while, but if yours is like mine, it got damaged using the harmonic balancer removal tool in the first place. =-/

      There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)

      What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).

      Custom titanium intake

      By Sleepergm · Posted

      No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here.
