Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

^Just polish up the ones you have :) use any paint cut and polish, and get at it with some force!

(presuming its yellow and thats why you want it replaced)

Nope, superglued (leaked on) and scratched. so needs replacing.

It still stands LOL...

Check the turbo, check I/C pipes, Vac lines, AFM etc... general process of elimination, if you cant see/find anything, maybe take it to a mechanic....

cool!

i had a look and i'm now certain the noise is comming from the turbo!

Dont bother. Aweful fitment and shabby fibreglass.

Contact Cazz (GTS-145 on these forums) And ger her R31 house Version 5 front lip and import vents, and use a new nissan S3 bar.... lot better result.

Exactly what I have on my car (bar the new bar, mines munted as shit ATM) Quality is great and fitment is perfect.

I hope you have the rest of the kit and wheels to pull that front end off.....

S3 jap lights are the same as Aus S3 lights, only the S2 afterburners are different to the Aus S2 "bar heaters".... good luck if you can find a set. And you need a different garnish for them. If you can get the lot for under $500.... you're a lucky man. If you can find them at all. Get S3 lights and be done with it.

Eyelids you can get from URAS.... or make them yourself with F/Glass or just tape the headlights, But I think they ALL look like shit.

Stock lights, no kit, slammed on Longchamp XR4's, straight pipes.......... Old school jap tuff.

What I would have done... except I have a full kit, massive negative offset 18's, bolt on guard flares etc...

Iv seen the jap lights pop up on ebay somtimes and go for $400-$500 but i was hoping to find them cheaper lol if not il just spray the sr3aus lights black with some sunvisor paint. I was going to hunt around for the jap frount lights but the eyelids are alot cheaper.

If you want old school jap, gat an autospoiler and vents, and drop to the deck.

      It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.

      I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility

      I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...

      Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something
