LOL

I just washed and clayed the car and I think to myself, why not take the badges off and see how she looks?

1 Hairdryer and a heap of melted fishing line later I learnt that there are 2 pins behind the GT badge on the QTR panels.

This totally sucks because now I'll have to find something to:

A) Put there instead (another badge or light cap)

B) Fill it and have it painted over

C) Get a pair of new QTRs when I get the kit done...

So for now the badge is back where it belongs =P

Just thought I'd share as I had read on a few places(googled forums) that there was no pins...

I have no idea why you took them off. People get robbed and find replacements for them. The GT badges there are tough as... why would you take them off in the first place. Nothing else looks nice there mate...I suggest you buy another set and put them on again!

Where I live there are plenty of dickheads that pinch them and damage the panel while doing so. 2 mates of mine have only 1 GT badge and because my car is parked out in the open for 8+ hours a day I figured I'd remove them for a debadged look, (removing the S off the bonnet when respraying)

Mind you I prefer not having any badges, yes people will still know its a skyline, but who needs to advertise and obvious car :)

Fair enough mate. Well, good luck with it.

I got mine pinched twice and keyed too...some people are absolutely morons.

When my car gets damaged I turn into Vince from Pulp Fiction.... "What kind of cockless piece of work f**ks with a man motorvehicle!"

Well I am thinking I will get some little megaman extra life power ups made and put them there instead of the GT badges... but depending on costs might just go with some new quarters instead heheh

Mate, if you're really after the badgeless look. Just get those pin holes welded up and repainted.

I know how you feel when those bastards steal your shit. Just crack it!

Removed my rear Nissan and 25GTT badges yesterday. The latter basically peeled off and a little bit of heat from a hairdryer and some wax floss took care of the Nissan badge. However I still can't get all the hard bits of glue off, I've tried washing the area and Armour All Bug and Tar remover. Any further suggestions?

      Fake ARP bolts?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Yes sir, that was me. Fake ARP's are also a thing over here in Canada and we only order from reputable dealers. It's sad that even simple things like bolts and hoses are now also being copied... anything to make a dollar.  Story time. Like all cheap crap from China, it's even an issue with firearms. Roughly 15 years ago, I purchased a new cheap Norinco 12g shotgun. First time out in the bush with it, while firing, bolt assembly didn't lock and it fired out of battery. The receiver also being cheap steel, basically exploded in my face. I was lucky to be wearing eye protection. Long story short, don't buy Chinese junk. Also Norinco being state run and their only military arms producer, if ever they do try and take over a country, don't worry about it lol.

      Nismo copper mix twin “pull” pedal height engagement

      By ck_chino · Posted

      Installed  Nismo coppermix twin competition spec last year in my bnr32 with pull trans with Oem slave cylinder. The point at where the clutch disengages/enages is right at the top of the clutch pedal, meaning I barely have to push the pedal down for the clutch to be disengaged.  You guys that have the same combo are you experiencing this high pedal bite point??   Secondly I’d like to have the disengagement point lower meaning I have to push the pedal more(further not effort)for it to be disengaged.  I’m thinking to use a Nismo big operating cylinder(bigger bore at 13/16 vs Oem 3/4) which will require more pedal stroke to get the equivalent movement at the clutch fork. But I see Nismo web site says not to mix these 2 as the Nismo big operating cylinder doesn’t have enough stroke to disengage??? Any folks run both the coppermix twin pull with Nismo cylinder??    Thanks in advance for the replies but prefer only guys with pull clutches to respond. thanks

      That’s a great deal and I would jump on it if you were closer. Melbourne is a bit of a hike for me though unfortunately
