They are very hard to find for the R33's. I was actually looking for some myself but have strugged to find any at all. They have the original ones but like you said they are about $600.

I know they are easy to get for the R32's. Apparently they fit an R33 but not a perfect fit.

Most copies are the same its just the base plate thats different. I bought a pair from car toys for my R33 for around $170 and $20 for the base plate but the base plate didnt fit and would hang over about 30mm and looked ugly. It also made the mirrors stick in the air and didnt look good at all. I didnt like spending $550 on original ganador but once they were on it was worth it.

maybe ask Ryan from ISC Performance, he got my original ganadors for me but might be able to help you out with copies

Get copies is easy...try Ebay, firesport.com, nungun.com, justjap.com.au and nismo.com.au as well as other places, however, be mindful of the suitable bracket...wrong bracket means they will not fit flush and will look like shit.

i got mine from carmate.com

at first i wasn't too happy with how they fitted, but a little messing around and painting them up made them work pretty well and i'm happy with them. more than half the price of the real ones and doesn't make much difference to me.

no offence mate but no way can u compare those to a real set of ganadors. i bought a set of carbon ones last month and yeh shit they are expensive but i wouldnt put anything else on my car, buying genuine u know that its gona fit. modifying cars isnt cheap but id rather do it right the first time round

^^ True i agree - but in my defense i'll say this...

At the time i wasn't a member of SAU, did most of my modifying off the bat without advice, and didn't know there was good and bad way to do things. And on a budget you find ways to take shortcuts and this is one that doesn't effect me and nobody else has said anything and really, i don't care.

Besides, the question on the thread was where can i find fakes :cool:

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
