We should start a collection of 3D printable skyline parts.

these are becoming more and more common and will be a great way to replace those brittle and expensive plastic parts.

Post up if you have found or created anything good.

 

i have found minimal on thingiverse but...

I have the nismo center caps as a single piece.
As far as factory parts I had planned on doing exactly as you said but once I found out about the nismo heritage parts I didn't see the need for a lot of them.
If there are any parts that people are particularly interested in I'm happy to try create a file for them though!

N1 ducts could be done, but fibreglass copies are easy and cheap to get with no real downside? Vents are available from Nissan, I know they aren't cheap ( I have replaced mine!) but as far as creating every part of the vent to get it work would be a struggle to do cheaper and being such a visible piece would be difficult to get to match the rest of the interior and look of the quality of OEM. Mechanical parts to the vent and the slats could be done easily enough and they seem to be what breaks most often. door handles and surrounds can be done from Nissan for $100ish for both doors.
If someone has an expensive 3D scanner that can create part files from it would be worth it just to have the files... but creating the parts from scratch would take hours ( atleast for a major rookie like myself) and be likely worse quality and more expensive than going to Nissan

      IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.

      R34 Diff oil

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.

      How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
