This is the first 20 badges, so be quick, this will take about 3 weeks from now for these to be made up and sent.. There will be a gtt group buy and another gts buy if this was popular :D

hey all.. i know alot of people have been looking for these badges, and i know some people do have some but they look cheap and the S is very badly made, well, a gts badge has been made, and nissan could not do beta!..

Be quick, because this price is a huge favor for us!, and andy is barley making any profit in selling them this way.. we get them for $75 instead of the $130 ish.. thats pritty damn god..

finally, a nice badge@..

oh, made out of stainless metal and has 3m tape on the back, measurements are 60mm X 45mm.. at the moment, these cost $130 each for a single badge.

UPDATE There are 20 test GT-T badges coming soon, so they should look good, there are pix through the forum from andy kain the maker of this badge... prices for those and the group buy soon

yeah, i hear you... but thats what you get if you want good quality, and a metal badge.. these will be cheaper for 20 or 40 or even more, so 135 is the base price for one.. my aim is to get these cheaper for all of us, im going to take a guess of around 90 ish dollars for maby 30 or more... some silly ebay chrome badges go for $30... does any one know what the price would be or a original gtr from nissan?

Yeah, definitely man. I hear ya. I was just thinking, you know how in asia, how once you get the mold made, producing them is cheap as.

Last time my friend was over in china, you could buy gtr badges (look exactly like the orginal one) for about AU$3.

But yeah, i'll be waiting keenly to see what the final price is :D

yeah, i so know what you mean... just if we can steal this mould..heheh.. we could have them for 3$. that would be awesome.. :) . do you think if i took my badge to a cutter it may turn out cheap for us all?

Please read the rules for the Group Buy section and update your first post with all the required information otherwise this thread will be closed.

Thank you

now one wants to buy gts badges?. there abit of cash, but, look perfect.. and are originaly made and from the uk, thus being why the exchange rate is so much..

quality is great.. you can always buy another after the first group buy.. at least this way every one will get them cheaper to see what they think.. but they are very good

hey,, hmm, i thought that at first, but i think it may be the pictures.. andy spent a while trying to measure out the difference from a r to a s... the R is extra fat on a real metal gtr badge.. ill post a pic up of a real gtr badge if ppl need to see the difference.. hope that helps...

Br3TT. should i put you down for one?

FYI... The difficulty I have had with these badges were firstly the measurements as I needed them to fit onto a GTR style grill and the only way of doing that was with the measurements of 6 cm X 4.5 cm. Also you can design the best thing in the world ever, but there is always going to be some who dont like it, thats just human nature you cant please all of the people all of the time.

Also please remember that the cost is simply due to the high exchange rate between the UK £ and Aus $. This as I am sure you can appreciate is nothing I can do anything about.

This is the current exchange rate

This is a link to a GTR badge on ebay, you will see that the starting price is GBP £40 and although its a reasonable picture there is no scale, so someone could ask him the measurements

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
