I'm trying to find a part number for the grommets and screws that secure the nismo and probably other side skirts onto a '98 S1 RS4 stagea.

The ones i need fit into a 10mm round hole under the car, the plastic bit pushes into the body and then there is a screw which screws in fastening the metal side skirt bracket to the body.

I've been into nissan but thew weren't much help and pretty much gave up before they started and the one they did come up with was a square plug.

If I'm not asking to much could someone also look up the clips that snap in from the side also, I found some that half work but if i could get the correct one that would be great.

Thanks

Aaron

Keen to hear this one myself; mine is missing a couple of the screws.

Also if you could come up with the P/N and description for the sideskirt endcap for a S1 Dayz, rear drivers side, it would be a godsend.

Ok, so far I've been into Motortraders, Sprints, Supercheap, Autobahn, Nissan, 2 paint and panel places and done a lot of searching on the net. The closest I can come up with is a Hyundai & Kia Headlight Assembly Grommet Whith is nothing like the original.

No one seems to make much for round holes, there is heaps of stuff atound for square holes and smaller round holes but very very little in the size that we need.

I went into another Nissan dealer today, we managed to find the side skirt fitting kit, and the end cap(I'm missing one too) but unfortunatly the trail ended there, the part was no longer listed or something.

Get all the codes anyway, theres a few avenues to try. Given the random Japan specific sh..stuff I can still get for my 21 year old HR31 new from Nissan, I'd be surprised if much of anything is NLA for the stags.

but...you just need an equaivalent faster, not the same.

if it has a hole and access to the back....a bolt with nut will work if necessary.

if it is a hole within 1cm of the edge of the sheet you can use the spring clips that take self tapping screws.

if its a hole with no access to the back get any of the plastic clips with the right outer diameter and shove them in. when it comes no nylone grommets a square peg most certainly will fit in round hole :)

worst case most bodykits in this world are held on with double sided tape...

do you have a pic of the problem?

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too. This are high flowed SS-1 models with ball bearing conversion done.  Car have managed to pull 485awkws @ 20Psi so far pushing limitations of factory built engine. The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
