Just wondering if anyone here knows on a part or product that will protect the rear bumper for when the dogs are jumping in and out??

Like a rubber strip or stainless steel??

I don't want thier claws scratching the crap out of the bumper..

if you turn over the spare wheel cover im sure it has a mat attatched to it that comes out and covers the bumper

Really? I'll have to check that out...so many gadgets and handy little ideas in the stagea, its no wonder we all love them so much

Yeah I have seen pictures of it and have used it myself. The pictures I saw were people with skiing equipment, and it was so that they could sit in the back and take off thier boots and stuff and not get the carpet in the back all wet and dirty.

I have used it when I've been marching through mud and want a place to sit down and clean off a bit without getting mud all over the place.

It is also really easy to clean, a quick hose down is all it requires.

There are two small straps that normally keep it from being removed tottally, but you dont need to turn it upside down to use the splash guard, it's held to the bottome of it with little clips, so just lift, unclip and fold out over rear bumper.

i'm looking at getting my rear bumper repainted as i've already damaged it loading and unloading. i've seen taxi's with a protective strip over the bumper under the tailgate to stop the paint being damaged. i'm trying to source a clear hard vinyl strip or something similar to stick over the rear bumper just below the tailgate.

Nothing on the nissan dealers system with that part number (rockingham nissan)...

I'm going to check out some companies that might take a mould and create me one.

Would like to know the price of a nissan one also to compare.

It would have never been sold in Australia b4, thats why it wouldn't be on the system. They would need to contact Nissan in Japan.

Nope....

R33's never been sold in Australia, but a few dealerships in VIC have a full parts list. And NISSAN Australia, storage have heaps of new import Nissan parts. I dare say you will need to wait 2 weeks for this part to come from Japan :).

Just need to find a dealership that is willing to chase up the part.

PS: i purchased a NEW pair of R33 front indicators from a NISSAN dealership and they were cheaper than a second hand pair from a well known Sydney import wrecker ;). They also had them in stock at the distribution centre: Ordered them at 8am and picked them up at 3:30pm, that same day :)

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
