Hi. I just bought a ceffy here(Russia) and its pretty much banged up. Have to buy new front fenders, and got a good deal on S13 ones. Just not sure if they gona fit normally. The price would be about the same if i would order new ones from japan(plastic ones) for A31 or buy the ones i've been offered, its just about shipping time =) And I suppose if fenders gona match headlamps and grill also will?

My copy of NissanFAST lists the same part number, but it does that with alot of shit, Im fairly sure S13 fenders are different.

Do as much measuring as you can and if the S13s are cheap enough it cant hurt to get them and try, maybe they'd just need some rolling or whatever (S13 bumpers fit onto Ceffies upside down, so who knows). Havent seen it be done yet.

Consider finding some DMAX vented guards ? fibreglass and a bit cheaper, they pop up on eBay sometimes, in the For Sale section here, or sites that sell body kits for Cefiro's usually have them or can find them. Brand spankers from Nissan would cost you a fair bit.

I highly doubt it. For one the indicators are different shape.

The cefiro front bumper wraps around whereas the silvia guards go down to the bottom of the bumper.

They might fit on the car but then you'll need to use S13 lights and bumpers.

I don't see why you would bother trying when you say you can get genuine brand new from japan for the same price.

Yeah now i pretty much see they wont fit. Why bother ? Cuz the ones i'll order from japan will ship to moscow around 15-20 days, and s13 ones are already here. Thnx for answers anyway ) I Would ask alot of stuff here in near future. Just bought ceffi around a month ago and there's alot of stuff to do about it. Might post some photos when it gona be abit better shape ^_^

    • When I need something else to edit, I use Movavi. A friend who does video editing on a daily basis recommended me) it's an easy video cutter to use for beginners
    • I need to edit some videos for work but I'm not good at all this. Which video editor can you recommend?
    • I think you're really missing the point. The spec is just the minimum spec that the fuel has to meet. The additive packages can, and do, go above that minimum if the fuel brand feels they need/want to. And so you get BP Ultimate or Shell Ultra (or whatever they call it) making promises to clean your engine better than the standard stuff....simply because they do actually put better additive packages in there. They do not waste special sauce on the plebian fuel if they can avoid it. I didn't say "energy density". I just said "density". That's right, the specific gravity (if you want to use a really shit old imperial description for mass per unit volume). The density being higher indicates a number of things, from reduces oxygen content, to increased numbers of double bonds or cyclic components. That then just happens to flow on to the calorific value on a volume basis being correspondingly higher. The calorific value on a mass basis barely changes, because almost all hydrocarbon materials have a very similar CV per kg. But whatever - the end result is that you do get a bit more energy per litre, which helps to offset some of the sting of the massive price bump over 91. I can go you one better than "I used to work at a fuel station". I had uni lecturers who worked at the Pt Stanvac refinery (at the time they were lecturing, as industry specialist lecturers) who were quite candid about the business. And granted, that was 30+ years ago, and you might note that I have stated above that I think the industry has since collected together near the bottom (quite like ISPs, when you think about it). Oh, did I mention that I am quite literally a combustion engineer? I'm designing (well, actually, trying to avoid designing and trying to make the junior engineer do it) a heavy fuel oil firing system for a cement plant in fricking Iraq, this week. Last week it was natural gas fired this-that. The week before it was LPG fired anode furnaces for a copper smelter (well, the burners for them, not the actual furnaces, which are just big dumb steel). I'm kinda all over fuels.
    • Well my freshly rebuilt RB25DET Neo went bang 1000kms in, completely fried big end bearing in cylinder 1 so bad my engine seized. No knocking or oil pressure issue prior to this happening, all happened within less than a second. Had Nitto oil pump, 8L baffled sump, head drain, oil restrictors, the lot put in to prevent me spinning a bearing like i did to need the rebuild. Mechanic that looked after the works has no idea what caused it. Reckoned it may have been bearing clearance wrong in cylinder 1 we have no idea. Machinist who did the work reckoned it was something on the mechanic. Anyway thats between them, i had no part in it, just paid the money Curiosity question, does the oil system on RB’s go sump > oil pump > filter > around engine? If so, if you had a leak on an oil filter relocation plate, say sump > oil pump > filter > LEAK > around engine would this cause a low oil pressure reading if the sensors was before the filter?   TIA
    • But I think you missed mine.. there is also nothing about the 98 spec that supports your claim..  according to the fuel standards, it can be identical to 95, just very slightly higher octane number. But the ulp vs pulp fuel regulations go show 95 (or 98), is not just 91 with some additives. any claim of ‘refined by the better refineries’ or ‘higher quality fuel’ is just hearsay.  I have never seen anything to back up such claims other than ‘my mate used to work for a fuel station’, or ‘drove a fuel delivery truck’, or ‘my mechanic says’.. the actual energy densities do slightly vary between the 3 grades of fuel, but the difference is very minor. That said, I am very happy to be proven wrong if anyone has some hard evidence..
