looks the same as the bursons one Neil

Yea your right Chris and I'm starting to think all of them under $200 bucks are all the same.

That e-bay search is "Autolac" who are a paint supplier and have stock.

I'm just going to buy the cheapest one and fix it when it breaks.

Cheers

Neil.

Can anyone confirm whether rolling your guards, rears in particular is a defect? Ive been told that its considered altering the structural integrity of the car and as a result is a defect?

Also, for anyone interested, I bought one of the rollers off Ebay, seller is based in Adelaide so was able to go and collect it...paid around $150 for it, worked fine...I will add, be very careful rolling the rear guards on an R32, they are prone to denting along the lip if you try to stretch/flare the guard...it is the design of the guard, there is a tighter radius curve in the panel as it goes underneath and rolling this causes stress and creates dents. Im sure its not just R32s that this happens on, have seen other cars dented up as a result...

When i got defected the inspectors almost made me get a engineers cert because they couldn't measure a proper eye brow height pinch.gif

Then they went on saying "it looks to been professionally done" so let me go.

Is that true that you cant roll front guards on GTR's?? and if you can is there anyone in perth area that can do it.

Also wondering this, on account of them being alloy.

I'm more interested in the rear gaurds though - want to get 11" under there and don't want to mess around with tons of bog or fibreglass.

i went to get the rears rolled on my 32r a week ago and the length adjustment on the guard roller wouldn't go short enough :(

not sure if all are the same, but when we jacked up the car, the suspension wouldn't allow the rear hub to drop low enough. now i am outta ideas... any suggestions?

    • Could someone post some pictures of the factory Jack , tools, spare tire and how they were in a 1998 ER34 2 door skyline originally?
    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
