LOL, i just tried to take mine off so that i can clean under it, there is so much shit there. Unfortunatly, no good, so someone shed some light. I simply used a soft bristle brush to get under it to clean it, but still scratched the paint work, spent the last hour trying to polish it all out. DAM SOFT NISSAN PAINT.

thanks guys for no help lol cept for siddr20 lol ... i got it offf

ne one who wants to know how its just the 4 bolts explained at start of the thread then stand behind the car 2 arms under the wing and slowly ease your bodyweight onto the wing in an upward direction and the strong japanese christmas tree clips will eventually pop and off comes the wing ne one needing help PM me.. but that summs it up :(

after all bolts are undone it still might be sikaflexed on best way to check is get some fishing line and go underneath where its still attached to the car this should cut through the sikaflex... thats all i can offer hope that helps

hey, sorry to open this old thread. Just taken mine off, whats the best way about filling the holes how have u filled them in? who did u take it too

panel beater to weld in some circles to close the gaps, then file it back, small layer of filler to ensure smooth, prime boot and repaint.

Hi,

I have currently purchased a GTR wing...and noticed there are 3 bolts on the under side of the wing.

So previously having a s2 wing there are no holes for wing. Ive been reffered to drill some holes in the boot to mount, just wondering if this is the best idea, or get rid of 1 or 2 bolts so not so many holes need to be drilled, and painting the edge cuttings (underneath or on top of the boot?)

And if anyone can tell me the size nut i need off the top of their head, cheers.

      some days eh? The keyless entry and interior light on/off with the key will be controlled by the Body Control Module, but I'm not certain where that is or what it looks like (you might get lucky with a search to get a part#, which could be printed on it). I'd start at the A pillar/ Under dash/kick panel on the driver's side

      It might be hit and miss, but Nissan Genuine Parts and Pitworks are not the same thing, although both are available from Nissan Dealers with Nissan Part Numbers. Nissan Genuine Parts are the OEM stuff, Pitworks are their attempt to get people back from generic parts makers

      R32 Skyline Interior Door Light Issue

      I did end up getting it sorted, as GTSBoy said, there was a corroded connection and wire that needed to be replaced. I ended up taking out the light assembly, giving everything a good clean and re-soldered the old joints, and it came out good.

      Wow, thanks for your help guys 🙏. I really appreciate it. Thanks @Rezz, if i fail finding any new or used, full or partial set of original Stage carpets i will come back to you for sure 😉 Explenation is right there, i just missed it 🤦‍♂️. Thanks for pointing out. @soviet_merlin in the meantime, I received a reply from nengun, and i quote: "Thanks for your message and interest in Nengun. KG4900 is for the full set of floor mats, while KG4911 is only the Driver's Floor Mat. FR, RH means Front Right Hand Side. All the Full Set options are now discontinued. However, the Driver's Floor Mat options are still available according to the latest information available to us. We do not know what the differences would be, but if you only want the one mat, we can certainly see what we can find out for you". Interesting. It seems they still have some "new old stock" that Duncan mentioned 🤔. I wonder if they can provide any photos......And i also just realized that amayama have G4900 sets. I'm tempted too.
