I stopped buying from Japan ages ago. The parts are one thing, its like heaven. I would sit night after night going through Yahoo Japan like a kid in a lolly shop.

Then I got the credit card statement and almost had a heart attack!

Its true you get what you pay for, but bloody hell, you pay through the nose ordering from Japan.

My days buying awesome Japanese parts are over. Unless financially I hit the jackpot, and then if I did, I'd rather go there myself and fill a container :P

i have one of these wind guard for sunroof at home it come of my s2 prime ed,( the first part i pulled off it, 10 mins after picking it up) the clips are long gone but the guard is in good condition

How quick, Duncan? I ordered some clear blinkers (front and side), and was informed they were shipped on Wednesday.

I'm so so so so so so tempted to buy those LED rears (like in the first post), but I think they're for s2 and I'm not sure I could be bothered stuffing around to swap the wiring. to suit my s1. Yes, I am lazy. No, I've never denied it!

I just bought some bits thru import monster for the first time, very quick turn around.

Never mind, Duncan, I got mine today!

Got a set of clear sides and the LED fronts too...

sorry mate didn't see your post....the stuff was here within 7 days of the auction finishing. better than many local ebayers can manage.

yes it was pricey but it was literally they only one I have seen for sale anywhere

yeha,

I think we need to befriend some japs who work at nismo and impul. or nissan wrecker yards :worship:

Maybe we should have dedicated yearly visits with half a dozen forum members representing the different car types .. all armed with 5 empty containers each. and they arent allowed to return until everyones orders are complete. *hands over the 20 page checklist of everyones required parts*

group buys ftw.. everyone chucks in $100 for plane tickets and empty containers hehe

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
