Has anyone fitted Genuine Ganador side mirrors to a r33 if so did they fit good and have any pics? iv just fitted a set of evo(fake ganadors) to my r33 and they look like shit they stick out about 35mm and look like shit i paid $235 from cartoys as the real deal were $560 so before i spend that much it would be good to get some feed back on the genuine ganadors.

Cheers

My mate have the genuine Ganador mirrors, on his R33 GTST, and they fit perfectly.

Unfortuneately no pics of the car with the mirrors, buy you wont be disappointed with the genuine Ganador mirrors.

If you want PM Babia (real name: Nikki) and ask him to if he has any pics. He is very busy with work, but may have a spare minute to send you a pic.

Any chance of a pic of your current copy/fake mirrors?

How do they get the indicator functionality? do you have to run some wires yourself to get both indicators on the mirrors and guards to work?

yeh mate i got a set of genuine ones on my r33 i bought them of a guy on the forums for $300 and they fit perfectly and in my opinion look awsome as. it wnt show the picture i attached sorry guys they do look really good anyways

Edited by munro'sgts-t

the ebay ones are okay they fit good you need new screws and stuff to mount them properly.... but they look pretty decent but the cf looks cheap i would just paint them

oh and also they crack in cold weather.... my bro left his car outside in winter and the glass cracked

heres a pick of knock offs on my buddys silvia... alll and all not bad for 20 bucks haha

yehh i bought one off ebay for like $70 i thnk.. its fake carbon fibre with the indicator lights on them

looks really nice mann but my one didnt fit probably had to do some custom work at home (btw it was a home job)

but if you want it to fit perfectly try giving it to a professionally fitter or maybe the mirrors werent made to fit 'perfectly'.

I only fitted the passenger side becuase it took a blooody long time to install one mirror and i got lazy,so i been driving

around with two different side mirrors :) .

Also i havent connect the side indictor lights as my R32 is a 89 model and it dosent have a side indictor, it only has the front indictor

which connected to the headlight..connecting the indictor would be a harder job for me ...soo yehh i actually gave up on the

side mirrors.

None the less it looks good and improve the look on your car abit but the fitting can be a bi7ch..well to me it was :) .

Oh and make sure you get the electric one :whistling:

i can get pics for ya but i dont know how to post it up soo if you want give me your email and ill send it to ya.

I've got a set of ebay knock off ganadors and they are utter rubbish. Although it was advertised to suit the car, it still took custom work to get them fitted. The controls are reversed vertically, so down is up and up is down. Aside from that that, the mirrors themselves don't have enough adjustment to let me see out - passenger or driver side. At full right tilt all I can see is the back seat of the car through the rear side window. Also, whatever you do manage to see through them is appears magnified, the exact opposite from "objects in the mirrors are closer than they appear" warning you see on normal (convex) mirrors.

Highly un-recommended.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
