Hey guys,

I was wondering where I could get new metal badges from. The one on the bonnet's looking a bit tainted from oxidisation (lots of little speckles etc)...and I believe the 'GT' badges on the front guards are meant to be white/red? At the moment mine are just metal in colour - not sure whether they were faded from the sun or what.

I noticed there seems to be 2 stock front bars for R32 gts-t's and gts-4's...ones slightly bigger with a bottom lip (as attached)...where can I get one of these?

Last question, if I were to get a GTR front bar, would it be considerably lower than the rest of the car if I left the stock side-skirts on etc?

You should be able to get the badges from a wrecker, but it could cost quite a lot. The badges on my gaurds are all silver. I think on the 33's, the ones with blue had turbo and red non turbo or something like that. I don't think that applies to 32's.

The GTR bar would/should be lower than the rest of the car if everything else is standard.

Adam - my 32 is a gts-4 also...are they meant to be silver?

I'm not sure what they're supposed to be, but mine are silver. I don't think they faded either. Some people have there badges in GOLD!!

Where's this r32 thread? I've been looking but can't find it.

Ok, aside from the badges etc...would I need to go to a wrecker to get one of these front bars with the bottom lip? ^pic in first post.^

Okay cool...I'm happy then, mine hasn't faded or anything as silver badges seem to exist haha.

So the front bar I want is an M-Spec/M-type front bar? I guess I'll have to get one from a wreckers then.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
