I still say try topstage of ns.com. I dont see why he wouldnt be able to replicate it.

It's not possible to make a *decent* mould out of an item that isn't hard.

The factory lip is made of a rubber like material and can not be duplicated 100%. Thus leaving room for error and when you're playing around with expensive gear like carbon fibre you just can't have this.

I was actually behind this group buy (with the obvious help of dezz) but it's just not happening.

The sample has been sent off to the carbon fibre factory in Taiwan but unfortunately it can not proceed.

Sorry guys, I wish there was something we could do but we can't. I was unaware of the moulding process until after this EOI for a group buy was organised. I personally didn't think it would have been a problem. :P

hey man, it's just the technique that grows and experience made us better. so are theese guys wanna do this or not?

forget to mention, that white carbon thing, it isn't carbon, it's DYED FIBERGLASS (silver) .

we have now BLue (CF+kevlar) , Green (CF+kevlar), Yellow (CF+kevlar), Silver (texalium) or even colour matched cf combo.

these coloured stuff are new, and the colour matching stuff are only we can do them :thumbsup:

Freddy, any chance of a lower lip (the one under the bumper) in carbon, but the same as standard. ie, same design just carbon fibre?

The lips are still available brand new from Nissan.

We ordered a brand new one for this group buy but have sent it to the factory we are working with in Taiwan.

Thus don't have access to it at the moment :D

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
