Hey guys,

Looking at getting some N1 side skirts and trust rear pods for my R32 GTR. I take it that you can no longer buy the genuine product new and finding them second hand seems very difficult as I have seen no one selling in a long time.

Is there any GOOD non genuine N1 skirts and trust rear pods that are very high quality that you would recommend buying from. I don't mind spending the money if it means that I get a superior product. Any help would be great.

Thanks

i really dont think you will find a genuine set mate, there long gone

if you're prepared to pay I actually think Nissan do still make them.

Was looking at doing some shopping recently and you'd be surprised at how many genuine parts Nissan still makes :)

eg i can order the N1 button where regular 32 GTR's have the radio controls on the dash (N1 has no radio so button is blank :P )

Don't have the quote here, but wasn't much, around the $20 mark or something.

The only thing they didn't have in the list of parts i asked for, was an original tape deck.

Everything else i wanted (and these were all N1 parts i though i might need later on down the track to freshen up the car) were all still for sale.

In some cases i had to wait for the next production run.

Quality and fitment was good. Just needed a slight trim and tidy up. Got them from jsai.com.au his communication skills arent the best but he has a lot of moulds and makes alot of kits for different cars

if your talking about the spat that joins to the rear of the side skirt, i priced some of these up the other day from work. I almost fell over when i saw the price looking at around 500 each side, and that staff price for me. I ended up finding some nice carbon ones through matty at new era imports, they arrived in the male today actually. Very nice product and fits very well. (was for the same price as one side of the genuine nismo ones too)

Hi its one of our R32 GT-Rs we sourced in Japan and tuned, then sent to the UK for a customer, (who oddly then also bought my old R34)

Both front and rear are genuine abflug

Does anyone have a closer picture of these? Do they just fit directly over the rear of the side skirt or do you have to cut them? C

Cheers Matt

    • I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car
    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
