i know this may have been covered before but i thought i'd post up..

i went into repco and asked if they sold a dash mat/cover for R32 skylines. after a couple minutes of searching, they sure do!

Moulded Car Carpets of western australia make the "Aussie Mate" dash mat range for most common cars which you see on the racks, but they also make a range for cars that they don't produce for often.

they have to be ordered so i couldn't see the final product.. but for only $51 i thought i'd bite the bullet and see how it turns out. i'm actually really happy with the design.

it only took 2 days to get to my local repco store from the day i made the order.

they are moulded to shape and made of good quality. they look like they will last.

here's some pics:

what do you guys think? some people say dash mats look too 80's, but i think it looks nice.

for anyone interested the product code is AMNI191BL.

hmmm ive got 2 questions

first one is what is the dail you have in the RHS air vent? and how big is it - and how does it stay in there

secondly - is that a drift style handbrake? how do you find it?

it's a boost guage. not sure of the size but it fits in nice and snug without any brackets or modifying.

yup it's a drift handbrake. brought it for $15.

cheers guys :D

if anyone wants extra/different pics just give me a yell.

if your putting it in that side vent then 60mm gauges fit mint, like the Apexi EL2 series

Looks mint man Dave, really neat!

Hook me up with pictures of that other shit we were talking about yesterday ;)

oh shit man.. i totally forgot!

dw i'll be getting that pink tutu and the wig for those pics you requested asap. :)

yup it's a drift handbrake. brought it for $15.

i want to get one - every time i do a motorkhana (about once a month on average) i tape up the button with duck tape

if your putting it in that side vent then 60mm gauges fit mint, like the Apexi EL2 series

cheers man - yeah my 32 has a hole there so was thinking of doing something with it :D

Hi dmr,

Thanks for the heads-up on these dash mats, have always wanted some for the r32 & r33 i've got but always thought you'd have to get custom ones made-up.

Went down to my local Repco shop this morning and was able to order a dash mat for both.. I think the dash-mat no for the r33 should anyone want it is: AMNI192BL for black and AMNI192GY for grey in colour, there is also a mocha one in colour, but didn't even query that as I though it'd look Sh!t..

Cheers,

Adrian

great :thumbsup:

what colour did you go with?

i was considering grey since my car is gunmetal but i passed up on it thinking it would look ricey.

if you get some pics for the R33, post them up.

Hey,

Went for black in colour on both the R32 & R33, just thought I'd stick with stock colours.. I wanted one moreso to protect the R32 GTR dash and keep the bubble from growing which seems to plague all R32's and make them look crappy. I won't be velcro'ing it in place or anything it can just sit there..

Haven't picked them up yet as there still being ordered in but mine were supposed to be $65ea inc GST and delivery as I'm regional, not city, so might be cheaper in the city should they have stocks available??

I'll post pics of R33 when available :thumbsup:

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
