I was just wondering on how people have installed their skirts especially the rear because in mine there are only holes at the front

the back doesnot have any (in the car the skirts do ), so dont know how to attach them

and I am quite sure double sided foam tape doesnot do the job

any help would be appreciated

Sikaflex adhesive is what we used to use if I recall correctly.

yeah that is what I was thinking , but I mean I have the standard skirt , so how does it come from nissan just stuck and bolted from the front

drill holes, attach screws, hey presto!!!

the drilling the holes is not the most attractive since it is a body part, and that means I need to paint it and so on so no rusting

i used the adhesive plus bolted them on but they were 400R side skirts.

Drill the holes I wouldnt be relying on the other stuff on its own its not a big deal your just drilling inside the wheell arcs so its not a big deal two or three screws will hold it if you rdat worried about rust then put abit of paint with a touchup brush and use the other stuff to secure the kit even further

    • Interesting, I've heard complete opposite on my end. Bit of a lottery I guess.
    • Getting Dangerously close to being ready to go back in the car. Rockers in with clearance castings now (and a quick check with the USA for the torque settings for the larger custom bolts) Covers and ported FAST Manifold sitting on there. Not fully tightened down as there's some clearancing required for the water pump with the earlier LS1 water pump styles. Example of the clearancing needing to be done: The body has to be ground a little but I'm struggling finding an actual piece of it. The later variant of water pump resolves the issue as the manifold was designed around it. It only came on the VZ LS1 in Australia, it got a different pulley for Gen4 motors. (it also costs $450... vs... $0).

    • Doing some height adjustment on front suspension on a v35 and noticed this. The passenger side looks correct. So wondering what's happened to the drivers side?
    • Oh...I have the electric mirrors as well iirc ...they're in the same state as just about every other R31 door mirrors, with the 3 plastic screw towers broken/cracked in the plastic molding. All the interior is 'dry', so the mirror switches etc likely all work fine. Some pics below of the trimmer pieces ~ looks to me like previous owner, painted chrome finished trims with black paint ...ergo, the chrome underneath is likely a-ok... ...starts to look yukky posting stuff like this, how much did it cost in fuel on your last sortie up this way?...me just thinking aloud, borrow someone else's 4cyl to cut costs, come do your own pick'n'pull like before to save me some bother...hehe.. but whatever, I'll just earmark bits I know you want, because the way this is all panning out, I'll be able to retire the R31 from daily duty at long last, replacing it with a Subaru wagon I'm lining up in the wings...ergo, my attitude towards the donor pinny shell is starting to wane a bit, and I'm more than happy to help you out there... Like you say though, no rush...and I'll guarantee we won't be moving too far from this locale at any rate 😎
