Hey all,

If i had my car with me at the moment i would take a photo to show exactly what i am talking about, but having said that i'll try to explain...

I'm wondering if anyone knows where to purchase the plastic screw in clips that hold a lot of the front bar into the reo bar ( on a series 1 R33 anyway)

they same sort of concept also holds the plastic panels that sit just in front of your front wheels.

I guess over the years many of mine had become quite brittle and on removal of my front bar and the like to install a fmic today, i few got broken.

Also i'm in melbourne ;)

thanks

Camden

Your local paint/body shop will be able to fix you up.

awesome. i had figured that body shops would carry such things, but hopefully they don't ask some silly amount of money just coz they can ;)

Maybe you can purchase a small bag of them lol. Tell us how you go, I've broken a fair few of mine too :(

pretty sure they are at supercheap also...

Have been past both Supercheap, Autobarn and Bunnings today whom all only stocked automotive clips that i certainly use to find all the time in interiors of cars (tree design) but nothing of the type ive found holding on the outer components of my 33. will start visiting some smash repair places tomorrow (if i can be farked going out in the 40+ degree heat we are having in melbourne)

Cheers

my repairer sorted mine bout when replacing my front bar.. dont suppose u have tried nissan yet?

I did goto nissan cambewell yesterday who were as unhelpful as last time i went there (they really arn't interested in helping people with imports)

nissan brighton on the otherhand have been more than helpful in the past sourcing me many little bits and pieces, just havent had time to drop past there yet.

I also dropped into a repairer near where im working on my car in collingwood called LA. They were a great help and said they normally would have that style of clip but just didnt have any left. They suppied me with a similar style of clip in mean time.

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
