It's not that some people have more money than sense. It's just the absolute rareness of this nismo strut brace. To be honest you really have more chance of being hit by a bus than getting the chance to buy such a awesome rare piece like this. If I had the spare money now I'd snap this up. And it does say ONO so he is negotiable obviously. Goodluck with the sale.

Could easily spend that $3000 on something else other than a strut brace, some people have more money than sense

I see your point!

Person A could definitely argue that he'd rather spend $3.5K on getting most of a GTs-T

Then again...

Person B could announce that $3.5K "invested" on a Nismo item is likely to give him the same return in a few years time.

In my case...

I didn't pay $3.5K on mine. It's an older style. How much it's worth now is anyone's guess - but I like it.

And it suits the N1, because it's as light as a feather.

Damien, you're always in on the 'goss' aren't you - lol?

The red or black label is just an option on which one you like. I went with Nismo as the Omari factory really means they built the car.

Ok I have changed my mind on how I will sell this item . From the sale price I will donate $200 to a charity organization and terry gets to choose it.

Maybe you should auction it off on the Tech night, but set a reserve where you'd be happy to let it go. I know I'd lob a bid in to get it started!

Nah, I just figured that by having a look at your car and knowing the no expense spared nature and rarity of it, what better way to complement it, than with a rare piece of equipment like this.

But in reality, if you already have a nismo titanium one, how much better could it possibly get?

That price is seriously stupid rare or not its not made from fkn gold...

Totally agree, a strut brace is a strut brace IMO ur only paying for the "brand and rareness", a good a good quality one will do the same job, and leave more money for other mods

Why do people always complain nismo parts are always to dear there is no nismo part that is cheap,most people buying these parts will prob have all the mods and more on there car and are just looking for the one bit that eludes them from the perfect gtr,

That price is seriously stupid rare or not its not made from fkn gold...

A 1952 Mickey Mantle is worth $250,000. If someone offered it to you for $2,500 would say its not worth it because its only made of paper?

    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?  
    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts  
    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
