I got a stock one, but otherwise get it made.

Your sedan got rear discs with it's IRS???

All hatch's have rear discs and they're interchangeable with sedan. Just attach at cross member, but if you do this you will need the handbrake cables as they are different to the drum ones.

nah got me a dr30 rear end. disc, calipers, shafts, everything except diff

r31 gts front shocks etc with discs and calipers

rear is dr shafts (i think) but an r200 open wheeler which has stood the test of time for at least a year of second gearies

Same spec, just different offset on hubs.

Is yours pre or post 83?

82

You would have a TOKIKO style master cylinder???

If yes, there is a 1 inch upgrade available, don't know what vehicle it comes off, but if you took your old 7/8 m/c to a brake shop, or you know exactly what it looks like, get them to order you one.

Our 84/5's can only go up to 15/16 unless we change all the bundy tubing.

im not sure. the cylinder seems to be holding up ok so far. what are the advantages of changing it?

makes sense. z31 discs are the same as dr30's?

Same spec 274 x 22 as your R31 GTS.

We have discussed this topic extensively on another thread.

I have DR front & rear, slotted rotors and EBC green pads up front & black rear.

They are a high temp KEVLAR compound low friction, excellent road set up. But I am going to upgrade my fronts to BNR32 GTR 296 x 32 with 4 spot Nissan alloy calliper, only because I have, potentially over 300Kw at the wheels.

Anyone know if cutting a MR30 hatch grille (the eggcrate one with the three slats) so that the eggcrate crap comes out, effictively makes it the same as the other three slat grilles?

And if a set of coilovers were made for a 180B, they should bolt up to a R30 since R30 stuff bolts up to Dattos?

when i did the engine swap the machanic put the r32 master cylinder on mine, never had a peddel feel so good! with the hr brake callipars on mine i had to go to bendix comp X pads as EBC dont make front pads for these callipars...

Jenesis is www.r30.co.jp but when you access it put it through Alta Vista translation or similar so you can sort of understand what there saying in descriptions.

BUT! don't get to excited, they won't trade with you DIRECT, it's a good site to explore, and a lot of their parts can be made here just from the pictures. It is a good referrence site as well, to see what they do with them in Japan.

If your interested in getting some bits from them, it might be a good idea to put it to open forum discussion and we try and jointly get an order together and then get in touch with a parts importer, like Nengun, one of SAU sponsors.

Only one problem I can see with your car...... far too many doors!

i'd put my hand up for a group order from jenesis as there are a few body parts i'd like from them, i could speck to the boys at option 1 as they have have containers comming over each month...

Already done that, I talk to Nathan & Paul at least once per week.

Yeah i would be interested as well in getting some stuff from jenisis...I know in one of the earlier pages on this mammoth post that there was talk bout it, but that kinda died in the ass i spose...I wouldn't mind some of that bracing for a start that would rock!! Depending on what we can get and for what sorta $$$ it will all cost of course though!!

Geez,you've gotta be on the ball to keep up with this thread!! :D

Talk to Whiteline and they will tell you both rear tower brace and floor braces aren't necessary' date=' but Jenesis makes, sells & uses them, so! someone aint up to speed.QUOTE']

I thought it was still a good idea,even with a rear tower brace,as the mid-section can get a bit "flexy" with no B pillars...

Also,I may be interested in a engine dampener brace from Jenesis,depending on price.Does anyone know if there's something to do the job locally?

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
