Hi team. Had a slight mishap with a garden sleeper - jumped out at my '05 Coupe and took a bite out of my right rear splash guard. Apart from sending away to the U.S., any idea where I could source a replacement locally - either in silver or unpainted? I'm happy to buy the pair if that's what I need to do.

Looks like I've stumped a few people. Doing some research, I'm no longer sure I can keep referring to the part as a 'splash guard' as the parts I've seen in the U.S. appear to attach to the guard in front of the rear wheel. For the sake of record, this is what I'm keen to source a replacement for (for a '05 Coupe).

Anyone? Even what it's really called so I can ask for the right part would be helpful.

Cobey may have a set for sale. But g35driver call them rear pods, mud guards, I think. If net wasnt playing up id find u a link. Don't go to Nissan, so expensive

Thanks Nate. I've dropped Cobey a PM.

Any1 else have some rear splashies they wana get rid of give me a buzz. 0411783449. Pearl white preferable but not compulsary.

Hey Mate, i am getting in a new rear within a 5-6 weeks (shipping takes 4 weeks ish)

Im going to try and sell my rear as a whole with the pods but if i dont get any bites you can buy the pods.

They are in 100% perfect condition and are in Pearl white. The inside guard face even has the clear protective 3M stuff on it.. Were paint matched and resprayed about 3 months ago.

I ended up getting them sent from overseas, as didn't have much luck on the forum - exchange rate is still pretty good now. Here: http://infiniti.sewellparts.com/parts-catalog/G35Coupe-2005.html Part # is 999j2jr000d4 . If you do a search a full set will appear, but if you email they can give you a price on a pair only (~$100 painted + shipping). You can make the shipping cost work for you by buying other spares (in-cabin filter, oil filter, etc).

Cheers.

    • Reading your posts Josh, sometimes I feel like I've gone in a time machine back to the 90's when everyone was doe-eyed and figuring things out for the first time.  I've lost track of how many single turbo GTR's I've seen on track that haven't burnt down lol. Everything has been figured out a long time ago. These things are at the point now where its essentially turn-key to go single turbo. 
    • Among other things yes. Making sure to either use an oil pressure regulator or the right restrictor size for your oil pump/range of oil viscosities you intend to run, making sure you plumb the lines correctly, turbo should be placed such that it siphons properly even when the water pump isn't turning so you don't boil coolant in the turbo after shutdown, oil return should be low resistance and also preferably picking the one that is most likely to return to the pickup as opposed to some other irrelevant part of the pan. It's far from impossible to figure this out but I have seen people really, really struggle and if that's the case it's easier to just take the path of least resistance. To me, bolt-on twin turbos are a fixed cost whereas single turbo is almost unbounded.
    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
    • Ceramic coating and heat shielding, you mean?
    • Turbos don't require pulling the motor apart so that's "easier". I would recommend the Nismo R3 turbos instead if you want to do stock twin turbo. It doesn't make as much power as the 2530s but it's only like ~50 whp off the mark and should have better response (ball bearing CHRA, slightly smaller turbo). A local that went with a Garrett G30 and 6boost manifold recently nearly burned his car to the ground after the hood insulator started melting and and burning so if you go single turbo I recommend doing a lot of research and validation work to make sure you don't do the same.
