Hey guys,

Pretty new to the skyline world, but i've been around my share of nissans. After driving my 33 for a bit know i'm starting to organize bits and pieces for it. First thing I wanted was floor mats, since the importer kept the ones that were in mine when I got it (bastards). Now I simply refused to pay the ebay price of $299 for 'genuine' mats.

Through contacts and a bit of research I am now confident I can have a set made for pretty much any skyline for around 100-150 mark. Carpet would be heavy duty auto motive carpet, although a bit thinner than the genuine article. I can have it trimmed it pretty much any colour as well. I'm also looking to have them embroided with say skyline or nissan or something like that, however I am yet to find an embroider who will do small scale stuff as the tooling can be a pia.

Just thought I'd get some interest as I rekon there would be a few people out there like me that don't want to pay the $299 premium! If i can get things rolling I might be able to do a small scale group buy or something.

Cheeeeeeers!

I don't know about the R32 (I assume thats what you have, since your sig?) but hte R33 have a weird floor pattern, universal ones just don't fit right. Otherwise I would agree, I'd pay $60 for generic ones btu they dont fit :P

just so you know mate, accessories online sell mats for skylines for $102 delivered (www.accessoriesonline.com.au) and they have nissan embroided into them

that's a pretty competitive price and the quality is decent. i have a set in my car

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
