Hi guys,

New to the site and stageas too, firstly - fantastic wealth of information you all have collated here - its a credit to you.

Secondly, despite searching I cant find ANYWHERE that supplies different front grilles for the series 1 RS4. I am due to get a stagea soon and I just really dont like the front grille.

Can anyone show me websites or more importantly direct me to a contact that has aftermarket grilles?

Im in the UK if that makes a difference and would love to see some pics!

Thanks all!

check out takeros(.co.jp I think - try a google search) and Masa motorsports (once again not sure of the exact site name). There will be others - just make sure when you search, you use WGNC34 and "body kit' or 'front grille' or 'face' etc when you search.

Give it a few hours, and the guys on here will have a heap of replies with more detailed info than I can provide!

Fantastic - I just think the new grille will massively improve the look of the car.

I also want some clear repeaters for the front and side - can anyone help with that?

Thanks again!

yeah - what sort of grill do you want exactly? Do a search on yahoo japan and have a look to get some ideas about what is out there. As for the indicators, the front ones are exactly the same as the nissan maxima (use the search function for "clear indicators" ) and the side repeaters are the same as a LOT of different vehicles. I have seen everything from Pulsars to commodores (4 door vauxall monaro to you lads in Pomgolia) you are pretty much only limited to what you can wire in and what will fit in the hole, but there isn't a lot of difference between cars. My choice is the N16 pulsar ones tho.

well, mine had a turbo grill with an NA motor (originally) :P

Its just one of those personal taste things I suppose. There are a few RS Four owners here in Aus that want to put NA grills on.......

If you weren't on the other side of the world l'd def be interested in swapping grills!!

Hey fuzzy, you should consider it, the postage isn't that bad.... might be way cheaper than trying to find one here or in Japan. Especially if you two swap!

PS I like the NA grill too...I have the Dolphin..... it is one BIG hole..... and no badge fits!!

ARGGHHH ... thats what l want!!! I prefer the n/a grill to the turbo one.

+1

I have the turbo grille

the NA grill looks best

Dolphin grille sucks arse IMHO (looks de-ghey with all the bits showing, such as radiator, auto oil cooler (aftermarket), horn(s), radiator air guide (aftermarket))

Id rather NOT see all those bits from the front with the Dolphin grille

lol

:)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
