just fitted mine took a while to get the rubber piece in the gear stick boot but just be patientk guys the leather will stretch with the heat of your hands.

looks very nice now Thanks pablo101

umm, fitted my gear boot fine, but the frame in the handbrake boot is flat - not the same as the original one which is bent???

Yep I had troubles with the hand brake boot, the original being convex at the ends. It ended up not fitting perfect but no one would be able to tell the difference just looking at it.

The gear boot had the arrangement of holes incorrectly punched in it for me, and one of the holes was half stitched over, easy to fix.

In the end they look soo.. much better, just like a new car, and real leather to boot.

Thanks for the gear pablo101

can anyone say how these boots compare to the $95 boots available on ebay from gaiter?

if they're better/equal/only a little bit worse i'm in.

never seen the ebay ones but these are very quality

Ill take some pics of the ebay Mr Gaiter ones, from the above pics though these group buy ones look to be better quality then the mr gaiter ones but you get to choose the colours with the mr gaiter ones. The Mr Gaiter ones are still real leather though and great quality.

shitty cam phone pics, they are real leather, delivery was within a week which is pretty good considering public holidays and sent from britain :)

anyway reason i was in here in the first place is i was wondering how you get the handbrake covers in? Do i just push it till the frame fits in the hole or do i have to remove some of the interior :X

na just push it in till its fits slide end towards arm rest the other end

it looks like you didnt take the rubber insert bit out of the gearstick boot and put it in the new one, i may be wrong though?

yea i left it in the old one, completly forgot about it :) . Does it serve a purpose?

Also putting in the handbrake cover, found bending the wire frame to the same shape as the original one made it fit a lot more flush

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
