Just remember that two mats missed the first shipment...........jabes you volunteered to get yours later, and there was one VSpec II mat. I have asked IM to send those that may be waiting an update and ETA for the two extra mats. Last I heard they were in a container and on a ship, so should only be a week or two away.

So what I will do is wait on the R4 Vspec 2 price then get firm numbers from you all. Once I have a firm commitment, and we pay a deposit etc [probably to the supplier direct, hopefully that way you

Apparently i am the one who missed out on the vspec ii mat, but i thought that was coming over pretty much the same time as the rest anyway due to its size.

Either way, it would be nice to hear something from IM to say that there is a delay and it is expected whenever. Not knowing what is going on is extremely frustrating, considering everyone else seems to have got theirs or getting theirs.

I asked IM to email those missing out Friday before last [22nd] with an apology and an ETA.........poor form that they haven't done it IMO.

I am sorry for the delay and their sometimes average service, we always knew [well for the last 6 weeks anyway] that somebody would miss out and have to wait. Jabes volunteered to wait for his mat, nobody with the VSpec II mats did the same so I guess IM made the choice. That side of things was completely out of my hands, not a thing I could do. The only thing I do know is that everybody will get their mats - its not a supply issue just timing - so just be a little patient and it will work itself out.

All mats had arrived a few days before Xmas except yours jabes, and one VSpec II mat [which now looks like SCRMER's] - these were coming in the very next container to leave japan. I believe that they have left japan now, but haven't yet arrived in Oz.

But I am 'a bit in the dark' about it as well because I really haven't heard any more from IM other than what I've copied and posted here. I'll ask them for an ETA on the two remaining mats [again] and see if they respond.

Reply to my query:

Hi Daniel,

I would say that the mats were put in the next container after the last batch.
In that case the container should be arriving to Melbourne some time next week.

I ordered a bunch through Amayama when this all got going

I was prepared :)

I thought we could use the original clips, looks like I am wrong haha. Happy to share the part number for those clips on Amayama? :)

I used my original ones, so Aqua yes u can.

Also got a tool pack for removing them from SuperCheap for $18. Thought about making one out of stainless I had laying around in the shed but got a bit lazy on it.

And the group buy deal never ever had or mentioned clips.

Yep I just used the original clips too and also had the same trim removal tools just to make sure I didn't bust any of them - Worked a treat

Thanks again Danny for organising this group buy

Hi Daniel,

The other mats have now arrived.

Give me a couple of days and I'll give the rest of the guys their postage quotes, as we are pretty flat out with the container atm.

      Short shifter r34

      By PLYNX · Posted

      Don't do it if your gearbox box has already having syncro issues. The short hifter will put a greater load on them. If you must I remember Nismo did a shorter shifter, with the top part being physically shorter and the part that went into the gearbox was the same as stock. In saying that I've had a C's short shifter (I think) in mine for many years, which was given to me as the previous owner was not sympathetic to the gearbox. Thus forwarned I was careful and had to modify my normal changing style. You have to be super accurate with your clutch and shifts

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      Well, after a week of daily driving and having to crawl out between the wheel and the side intrusion bars. I got myself a quick release setup. I went with an NRG short hub and Quick Release with some cute heart cutouts on the pull tabs. Nice and matchy matchy with the rest of the interior accents I have going on.  The only downside is the total stack height even with the short adapter is longer than the old HKB boss kit. Luckily I had some adjustment left on the column so move the wheel away.

      stock shifter with new bushes, springs and cup will improve it. Gktech do all the bits. The opinion as the years have gone on is the redline is not great in old gearboxes.

      Short shifter r34

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hi all   what short shifter do you use on your skykine r34?   my synchronous does have a problem and i was getting huge delay and grinding sound between 2nd and 3rd, did put shockproof red heavy stuff and it is great now/ no issues   would in your view short shifter screw this up?   people seems to suggest/ use cube short shifter and there is standard and premium. Seen review of premium as much better and less play. Thoughts?

      R34 oil and timing belt change

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, there's a bit of a density and friability difference between pebbles and any of those other things. Silicone will definitely float in oil and so will be mobile enough to move around. Although, again, if it is upstream of the filter it really shouldn't go any further. I would only ever worry about silicone when it is in places downstream of the filter. Upstream of the pickup is a whole 'nother matter. We've all seen what that does. I have seen the most abominable crap settled out in industrial gearboxes, trunnion lube systems and the like, without any sign that any of it has touched anything in the machine. Just chilling in the bottom, waiting for the inevitable operator error that causes the whole machine to need to be dismantled for repairs.
