Hey guys ive been up all night visiting my folks at the hospital and also the last few days. Anyway im about to have a snooze now but later tonight ill go through whatever emails and questions there are.

Cheers

Ripped open the packaging (nicely packed by the way) and had a good inspection.

Look to be great quality, especially the rubber backing and the quite hefty stitching along the edges. Grabbed the mats out of my dad's 335i coupe and compared, very impressed. Maybe a touch less dense carpet than the bimmer's, but i reckon the backing and the stitching is better.

Car is being washed in a few hours, so will vacuum and put them in then.

First impressions... very impressive, especially given the price. Now just to find someone to embroid 'nismo' on them :P

Thank you very much Dave for organising this and managing to keep everything on a good schedule dispute the obviously huge personal issues.

Hey mate cheers for the kind words. Yeah they are awesome as the company makes the mats for dealerships so they have to be a perfect fit with no compromise on the quality and i must say their quality is second to none. Coupled with me having done 4 group buys with around 140 sets of mats they will always offer me the best price to pass onto you guys and at $130 for the high spec version including postage im also shocked at what they deliver for the price. No wonder 300zx.com.au can get away selling them for $395

Once youve cleaned the interior post up some pics, would be great to see how they look inside different cars.

Oh yeah and couldnt tell if you were been sarcastic about them been packaged well just if you can let me know if you were happy or not that would be great. Damn internet and trying to detect sarcasm haha

Got mine today, only received 4 tho?? the small middle one that goes over the tunnel is missing,

very nice mats tho, also with the front passenger mat is the mat ment to go around the raised gear box bit? IL get a photo up if i can.

Yeah ill be getting onto the tunnel mats shortly. Also dont know what your talking about so get a pic up and ill see if i can help you.

I've asked the same question, apparently Matcraft only have 4 piece sets for the R33.

Yeah ill get to that at the very bottom of this post.

the middle mat on the 34 is going to need some time to get use to the shape... i'm thinking maybe a hairdryer to help the backing get use to sitting flush against the tunnel

Yeah not sure what you mean, if your talking about fitting it in between the bottom of the rear seats and the bottom of the centre arm rest i too thought they wouldnt fit on my Soarer. What you have to do is put the back of the tunnel mat against the bottom of the rear seats and then slightly curl the tunnel mat and then but it in at the bottom of the central arm rest thing. Have a play around with it as i too thought mine would never go in and were not the correct shape but yeah they pop in nicely for a snug fit so you cant see any of the floor carpet and the tunnel mat doesnt slide around. Let me know if that helps or if your talking about something else all together.

1. Colin Cox/ Nissan Skyline R32 GTR/ Black/ writing on all 5 "GTR" / Nissan heelpad/ QLD - $130

Do I pay now or whats the go? When will this group buy be done?

Hey mat ill be making a new thread/groupbuy in the next day or two and then ill be able to take your order.

Got mine today, will post up some pics to show everyone how they fit to a 34 GTR. I must say the quality is even better then what the pictures show, if you're considering them for the next group buy, you can do so with confidence.

Yeah thats what i do these groupbuys as normally i just do a groupbuy once to get what i need and help out a few others and be done with it. But yeah as they know me, i know the details and how good they are this is the only groupbuy that ill keep doing multiple times for aslong as i can. Awesome price and there isnt anything like this on the market so im happy to help out others than normally wouldnt have the possibility of getting them.

Pics from R34 GTR, GT-T matts do fit well as you can see (note the flash makes the carpet colour and logo look much lighter):

Yeah i dont know they dont photograph too well but look 1000 times better in real life.

Thanks for throwing those pics up. Looking at the shape it fits quite well around the transfer case hump.

Would be interesting to see how they fit in a gt-t, and how the '32 mats fit in comparison.

It almost looks like the pattern you have there is originally from a gtr it is that nice..

Well the ones that ELZ got are meant for a GT-T and not a GTR. So as they are taken off a template from stock GT-T mats they would be a perfect fit, but by the looks of things ELZ's gamble paid off as they look like a mint fit for the GTR.

It does look almost entirely factory, had i not been told these were for a GT-T i would have never known!!

Yeah i must say they look sick, first ive seen with the GTR logo and look like a flawless fit even though there meant for a GT-T. Always nice when a gamble pays off, and pays off this well :yes:

I PM'd ya hungrygtr. Could you have a look and get back to me that would be great :blush:

Yeah mate i PM'd you yesterday if you havent already checked or havent logged in yet to check.

Ok so a few more things, firstly can people that ordered mats please post up photos if possible f the future benefit of members to make up their mind if they are interested or colour choice etc

Secondly does anyone know if the r32 and r33 factory mats came with a tunnel mat?

Lastly if anyone has received floor mats that they werent supposes to and didnt pay for could you please let me know. From what i can gather there is 1 person that sent me details however never made payment and i ended up forking the post out of my own pocket to make everyones order sent out on time. It might not be someone on this forum but yeah if you received something you werent meant to can you please let me know as it will save me heaps of time backtracking through records.

Cheers

Hey Dave,

The R32 and R33 did come with a tunnel mat from factory, as mine still have the original mats.

I missed the boat on this Group Buy, will you be arranging another?

Cheers, Ryno

Hello Dave,

Received the mats for my R34 GTR - including the rear mats and centre for the rear - they look great - very happy thanks. :D

Appreciate all your help.

These are much better than the generic mats you buy from Super Cheap etc.

Thanks again.

regards

Andrew

Got mine a few days ago. No centre mat though. Not that is a big issue. Mat's are great good fit look awesome. Will post pics when i clean them ( stupid rain )

Yeah mate i will be fixing up the 7 people affected in the last group buy with not getting a tunnel mat for their r32 or r33. Im getting the factory to make a template of a tunnel mate generously lended by a follow SAU member. Although ive only had 2 people ask for where their tunnel mat is at ill be getting one to everyone person that got a set of r32 or r33 mats last groupbuy. Only thing is ill need to get $5 to cover postage and ill send it out with the order of the second group buy.

Again its not my fault that the factory didnt have a tunnel mat however as i didnt know myself i feel obliged to get it for everyone to forefil what i had promised.

Cheers

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
