out of the 6 sets of stovetops for sale on importmonster at the time, these where the only chrome ones. the others were the 2000 GT-EX style which i dont like anywhere near as much. all these need is a quick polish and they'll be sweet!!

Nice!

did you get the center trim aswell? pretty sure they are different.

i agree with you about the gt ex (211?) style one, the shinny one look HEAPS better.

.. goes on yahoo and looks for a set..........

I was wondering why they weren't on the car already then I noticed they were on your bed, you know there's a name for that condition?

"mechaphilia"

You need help brother,

just kidding mate, there very nice :(

hahaha i didnt get them for the car.... :(

nah but seriously. i wasnt aware that they needed the centre garnish until v8skylineman mentioned about it. unfortunately they were already on their way here at the time. i had a look at the situation today and i could just cut my spare garnish to fit. you just have to cut straight down, about 50mm in from the sides. im gunna have a look for a cheap one to buy but im not gunna look for long.

i am taking them to work tomorrow to be polished and ill post pics of how they came up.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
