Item: R32 GTR Clear Indicators

Location: Melbourne Australia

Item Condition: New

Reason for Selling: Don't complement the look I'm going for

Price and Payment Conditions: $350 plus postage. Full payment up front to my Bank Acct, can organise paypal if you cover the fees.

Extra Info:

These are brand spanking new indicators, they've never been fitted to a moving car. I fitted them to mine for all of about 1/2 an hour before deciding that they made my R32 look like an R33. It may tickle the fancy of some, but it didn't do it for me. I hung onto em for the good part of a year before deciding that I was never gonna fit em, so I'm selling em now.

They were brought down from Japan (so technically they are "JDM tyte" :P). I don't know if the bulbs light up (the orange ones came with the indicator), because I've never bothered to hook em up. Ideally you'd wanna fit chromed/clear bulbs that light up bright orange, because standard yellow bulbs will look gay in this type of indicator. The pair also have some silver paint spattered on the plastic housing (on the outside, where no one will see them because they're hidden by the inner guard and fender). They also have a silver ring of around the lens that looks to have been sprayed on. I don't know why they're there, and I didn't want to try and take it off for fear of damaging the lens.

You can buy em yourselves from D-Speed:

for 38,000 yen, that's almost $500 plus postage and all the other fees you'll probably have to pay to some backyard "parts import specialist" bring it down for you.

Here's a bigger pic of the pair (yes, they are on top of my laundry basket :P):

They are no different to a standard R32 GTR indicator other than the clear lens and no inner bubble. The have standard GTR mounts, which means they won't fit anything other than a GTR.

Further condition for this thread:No bitching, no "you can get em cheaper <insert location>", if you don't like the price being asked for, keep it to yourself.

I will start taking offers at $350, and let this run for a week, obviously the highest offer will get the set. Keep in mind they're only worth $500 so I wouldn't expect to get an offer that's more than that. I may choose to retract the sale at any time if somehow I'm convinced that an R33 is a good looking car. :D

These will NOT fit a GTSt, GTS, GTS4, GXi, or GTE, nor will they fit anything other than a R32, although it'll probably fit a civic or integra, seeing as you can fit everything from R34 tail lights to mercedes headlights on them.

The lens on this indicator is a single moulded piece, unlike the narrow body variant which is composed of two pieces glued together.

You can pick em up from me if you're in melbourne, or I will ship to anywhere in the world, as long as you cover the cost of postage from Melbourne Australia. I'll mark em as a gift, sample products of no commercial value, your grandma's christmas present, or whatever you want if you don't wanna pay taxes. They'll arrive in a box, bubble wrapped and paper padded.

AFAIK the vertex fenders for an R32 GTSt are only wider above the wheel arch, and not at the indicator, which means they won't allow for a physically wider GTR indicator, which this set is. You will need GTR guards and GTR bumper supports to mount this indicator onto a GTSt.

Funkey - as an aside, do they look like standard Nissan items modified with a clear lens?

i reckon they are and they've used a silver paint around the edges to hide the rejoining marks... what do you think>?

Its a single clear piece (obviously made from a mould taken of an orange lens), the joins are in the black area just like an original lens, so there's really no reason for the silver paint. Looking at it, its sprayed over clear glass.

Beats me why its there, as I found it pretty pointless. If anything the edgeing makes it line up better with the headlights, as the headlights have a black edging caused by the inner plastic.

    • Thanks for sharing this, and BTW if your headlights are in good condition they are worth thousands....you might want to consider replacing them with brand new LED ones like this (https://www.nengun.com/78works/full-led-headlights-r32-skyline) and making enough profit to buy a house in Sydney
    • I'm not sure what sort of shops are nearby, but I'd expect any reasonable exhaust shop could put a cat in it that will not restrict the power that engine makes. Otherwise, if you want to remove it, short lengths that replace the cat are readily available online, search for "de-cat pipes" or "test pipes"  
    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least
