I'm trying to find a part number for the grommets and screws that secure the nismo and probably other side skirts onto a '98 S1 RS4 stagea.

The ones i need fit into a 10mm round hole under the car, the plastic bit pushes into the body and then there is a screw which screws in fastening the metal side skirt bracket to the body.

I've been into nissan but thew weren't much help and pretty much gave up before they started and the one they did come up with was a square plug.

If I'm not asking to much could someone also look up the clips that snap in from the side also, I found some that half work but if i could get the correct one that would be great.

Thanks

Aaron

Keen to hear this one myself; mine is missing a couple of the screws.

Also if you could come up with the P/N and description for the sideskirt endcap for a S1 Dayz, rear drivers side, it would be a godsend.

Ok, so far I've been into Motortraders, Sprints, Supercheap, Autobahn, Nissan, 2 paint and panel places and done a lot of searching on the net. The closest I can come up with is a Hyundai & Kia Headlight Assembly Grommet Whith is nothing like the original.

No one seems to make much for round holes, there is heaps of stuff atound for square holes and smaller round holes but very very little in the size that we need.

I went into another Nissan dealer today, we managed to find the side skirt fitting kit, and the end cap(I'm missing one too) but unfortunatly the trail ended there, the part was no longer listed or something.

Get all the codes anyway, theres a few avenues to try. Given the random Japan specific sh..stuff I can still get for my 21 year old HR31 new from Nissan, I'd be surprised if much of anything is NLA for the stags.

but...you just need an equaivalent faster, not the same.

if it has a hole and access to the back....a bolt with nut will work if necessary.

if it is a hole within 1cm of the edge of the sheet you can use the spring clips that take self tapping screws.

if its a hole with no access to the back get any of the plastic clips with the right outer diameter and shove them in. when it comes no nylone grommets a square peg most certainly will fit in round hole :)

worst case most bodykits in this world are held on with double sided tape...

do you have a pic of the problem?

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
