Hey Guys,

at the moment I am having some paint repairs done on my silver R32GTSt. I am also having a new rear wing, rear pods, and sideskirts put on..... Well, that was the case until I got a call from the smash repairer asking me to come and have a look at the sideskirts. They just dont sit properly on the side of the car. There is a 5-8mm gap between the sideskirt and the car, which doesn't look too good at all.

I have spoken to the guys that sold me the skirts and they have agreed to pay a refund.

I now need to URGENTLY find some R32 Sideskirts that I can hopefully have fitted while the car is still having the repairs done.

If anyone has any suggestions, please PM me......

sirmx6: Sorry, would prefer not to list the supplier as all dealings I have had with them in the past have been excellent. When I called them to tell them about the problem, the offered me a refund straight away as they didn't have replacements.

[ryan]: Lucky you didn't put money on that bet Ryan. They were meant for a 32GTST and were trial fitted before purchase. Only 1 edge was not up to par.

and to update I bought some from Jetspeed, and they suck. Will be asking for a refund.

They are rough, and not cut out properly. I am now looking for genuine Nissan items.

Alternatively, please PM me if you have some pefect sideskirts on your 32 and can name the supplier in Sydney.

MR R32 - that sucks then man, i hope you get your money back. I've seen a few people buy R32 GTR skirts before, and think they fit GTST fine and then they dont, so i figured that's what'd happened. Maybe you should try Bodyform, theyre in the same complex as akira sound at lansvale i think it is.

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
