Does anyone know if R32's would have different bolt hole positions for the doors? my kit doesnt line up properly. its about 3.5mm out. so at the moment i have my car ripped apart in the shed completely undrivable until i put everything back on.

We are dealing with this issue and in talks with the manufacturer.

No ones had problems installing on a series 1 R33 have they? I just got a new job so i'm hoping i'll be able to buy a lambo door kit in a month or 2.

Never had problems with the R33 and we have one on our own R33.

Hoping within the next couple of months, depends on interest really. Only had 15 views on ebay for the R33 GTST/GTR gear surrounds which is pretty poor.

interested in gauge mount carbon fibre dash thingy

how much is this and were do i get it??

does it fit over the top of your dash or how does it mount exactly?

interested on lambo doors if they are as easy as it seems,

cheers

tyson no special tools needed. standard sockets, elbow grease, screw drivers, big ass hammer and some masking tape.

Hahah sweet thanks. Do you know where i could buy elbow grease from? Just joking. Are your doors still doing fine? I'm really tempted to buy these lambo doors in a week or two but i wanna be sure that i'm not gonna screw up my car lol.

Oh also did you take off your front wheels when you put the lambo door kit on your car?

why would you need to take of your front wheel for ? LOLL

Coz it said so in the guide on the website? So i was just wondering since i really can't be bothered taking off my front wheel if its not neccessary.

I didnt really follow the guide on the website it was pretty straight forward...so initally i hadnt taken off the front wheel.

Lets just say my wing man came very close to losing his finger.

You would be surprised how much the front/side gaurds actually go underneath and back along the body of the car. It makes it ALOT easier to take the gaurds off if you remove the wheels.

Heck i took headlights out as well the more space the less likely u are to scratch other pannels!

Also my doors are pretty fine, had to give em a grease last week to stop the creaks but otherwise they are fine :)

Thanks Chris.

Kietz don't call me stupid, read the guide before you start saying shit. First you were all like "why would you have to take the front wheel off?? LOL" as though it was the dumbest idea in the world then you called me stupid when i said coz its in the guide. You are just making yourself look like a retard. The guide said it was OPTIONAL, if it said i MUST take the front wheel off then i wouldn't of asked now would I?

than there u go why would u ask a stupid question ofcourse u gonna get a stupid answer LOL! its optional to take of ur wheel or not so why u ask a silly question like that for!

Sorry are you trying to be funny or are u actually slow??? im somewhat confused now

You seem to be neglecting one small point! the answer to the question. You seem to think its a dumb question therefor has a dumb answer. Really your just lame computer guy with nothing better to do.

Tysons question may not have been worded the best. But clearly it ment a few things. is it essential to take the wheel off? why? whats the difference in doing with it on or off.

As i mentioned alot easier if u spend 5minutes taking the wheel off first

The dash pod isn`t ready yet as the fitment was wrong when we tried the sample. I think the mould warped in tranit to Asia and ruined the sample. Have to start again on this one.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
