after doing some speed runs last night with a mate, we noticed a noise that was coming from the driver side. we couldnt figure out wtf it was, window seals, door, etc. we were stumped. as it turns out it was the splash guards on the front driver side, front half panel, that had come loose (has been like this for a while now, just really apparent at excessive speeds)

after closer inspection of how they work, i noticed that the panel is different to the one on the passengers side, passenger side has perferations, whereas the driver side doesnt. is this normal?

drivers side: broken

Just get new ones like i did but there is a difference in R33 Series1 and series2. Don't make the same mistake i made and bought a S1 version instead of a S2 ><

1st picture shows my S2 version and why i had to buy a new one. It was so soft already that when driving fast, got slapped by downforce so much it got detached and scrubbed my wheels hence the big hole.

2nd picture shows the S1 version i bought mistakely ><

haha silly me, i forgot to put down the part number. From your picture it seems you have a S2 R33.

For S1 - 63844-15U00 - Protector Assembly RHS

For S2 - 63844-26U00 - Protector Assembly RHS (p/n not available on FAST)

Cost me BND150 from my local Nissan Agent.

150.00 BND = 114.444 AUD

Brunei Dollars Australia Dollars

1 BND = 0.762958 AUD 1 AUD = 1.31069 BND

OR if you want a cheaper alternative, then do this. Go to your local metalsheet shop and fabricate one out of thin sheet metel. Costs will be around BND40 bux. The attachment picture is my car but i didn't like the look so i ditched it afterwards and got a Nissan one. lol

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...

      Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.

      One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
