tidied up the battery area, new terminals and wiring, its amazing how the little things make such a difference.

Looking for two interior bits so that I'll be happy with the interior as pictured, let me know if you have these or know where I can easily get some.

So I had a couple of weeks off recently and decided to tend to a few things once the house jobs were done.

1 - Resprayed the window wipers as they had certainly seen better days.

2 - Refurbished the brake callipers (they were part red and well faded) upon doing the paint removal it looks as though they've been painted previously not just in the red but silver too.

3 - Bought myself a couple of nice carbon pieces (N1 rear lip and front grill)

4 - Bought some Impul RS II rims with Achilles 123s

5 - Removed my front Bilstiens as one had begun to leak and have sent them off to Quadrant suspensions in Victoria for a rebuild (significantly cheaper than anyone here in Adelaide :()

How is the fitment of boot lip, straight and flush? Where did you source from?

Pretty good actually, better than I expected.

Grill not as good but I'm also being pretty picky, depends how fussy you are....

Can get from justjap I believe but I purchased from Custom Importz here in Adelaide.

We have 1 left in stock at Justjap. I've test fitted on my own car and I was quite happy with fitment. (I'm also quite fussy with aftermarket parts & how they fit)

N.B - that is a link to the fibreglass option (not the carbon item)

    • Hey mate give Autotechnica a go, I recently got some Comfort PUs and rails from them, they're comfy and look great highly recommended! https://www.autotecnica.com.au/part-finder/nissan/skyline/r32/
    • Honestly, for a daily I would gladly rock a Camry. The more disposable the better. People drive horribly out here and road conditions are awful.
    • Verify it's going into each of the 4 gears in normal acceleration, make sure the torque converter locks up over ~65-70 kph or so at low throttle opening. If you ease into the throttle at those speeds eventually you should get a "gear" between 3rd unlocked and 4th locked. It should downshift eventually if you floor it at 65 kph too. Get some Matic D ATF and drain the pan, check for signs of sadness in fluid and drain plug magnet. Top off to the correct level afterwards. If the transmission is worth saving you can drop the pan on a second drain and change the filter while you're at it. These are not complicated transmissions, at least compared to modern stuff.
    • A seat I find stupidly comfortable to sit in is the one in a friend's Merc Race Car. It even has the huge wings that wrap around your head. Best ever. Only issue is climbing through his scaffolding he put up in the doorway of the car... Ha ha ha. I sat in that seat for a couple of hours doing wiring. Another stupid comfortable seat I find, especially if my back is aching, is my OMP fixed back bucket seat too. I'll just sit on it when I'm exhausted in the garage sometimes to relax!
    • I just got off the phone with Dean from Vosta in Brisbane. They are the ones that do the replica seats and they have a shop full of seats for my to try out. Lovely guy.  I haven't decided whether to go genuine or replicas, I'm leaning towards Genuine at this point but who knows.  Also thinking the STRADIAs are the way to go VS the GIAS since they have a lower hip edge and would be easier to get into. Don't really like the idea of arm rests on the models to the right of this diagram either, maybe they can be removed?
