The local NIssan guys couldn't find this part (these are the black plastic attacher things that seem to hold most of the car together :blink:, specifically I need them for the front grill and bumper but they all look the same):

They wanted to start down the VIN number drama process but I thought it'd be way easier if I could find apart number.

Dunno which Nissan you are going to, but they all have 'em.

Even Frankston Nissan has those clips (and their service dept is next to useless - speaking from experience).

Take one in to the parts guys, they will bring out a whole box of those clips. They are used on all recent(ish) Nissans

You'd think huh. I live in the Nations Capital though and it's like living in the back of f$&*ng nowhere.

I took one in and he brough out one that looked similar but not the same. Then wanted vin and chassi number and moaned about these imports being very tricky even though I told him the clips are probably on every new car on the lot!

Nation's Capital by default.

That sounds like the typical narrow minded approach of 80% of Nissan Dealers.

Go elsewhere. There has to be more than one Nissan dealer in Canberra... I would assume?

Why not get Hornsby Nissan to send you a heap?

how many do you need and how much of a hurry

I found a couple of half good one's floating around in the boot storage and used those so I guess I need three (one's gone and two are loose) for the moment. It's holding together OK now with the found one's but I don't want to leave it like that for too long.

i will be able to get you three but it may take a week if you wanted to wait that long

Try 01553-09321

Should be the ones. :down:

Edit: Found some energy and went and pulled some out, they look pretty good to me. Any Nissan dealer should carry those clips.

Just depends what they charge for the little buggers *hint* $2.50 per clip is NOT satisfactory!

I've officially exhausted all my Nissan options in Canberra with no luck in obtaining what appears to be simple for the rest of Australia (including Tassie - no offence). I might as well drive to freakin Crookwell* for them!

*small Country town reference showing not that Crookwell is bad but that Canberra sucks ass for getting anything: Concerts, Movies and Car parts.

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.

      Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
