Hi all,

Can someone please confirm if the side skirts and the rear pod bits on the car in the picture are a nismo body kit?

If so, does anyone know how much they are worth new? And how much they have roughly been selling for when used / second hand?

Any info is much appreciated.

Cheers!

Hey Chris,

Genuine Nismo gear is very expensive.

Side Skirts $1270 via air or $1100 via sea, Price do not include local GST or import duties.

Rear pods $860 via air or $840 via sea, Price do not include local GST or import duties.

Cheers,

Johno

Hey mate, they look like the Z-tune side skirts and rear pods.

I just bought a set of the skirts and pods from Bodyform Aero in NSW for $580 ($330 sides/$250 rear)

From all accounts I'd heard, Bodyform were the way to go so I took the plunge and gave them a try.

Peter and Allan there were very helpful and quick to respond to emails.

I've written more on here about my experience with them.

My car is currently in getting them put on, I'll be picking it up after work today so I can provide pics of what it looks like but I'm pretty confident it'll look good.

When I dropped the parts in to DT Panels, their reaction was "Whoa are these genuine? Are you sure?? They look very well made!" haha that brough a smile to my face.

They're either genuine Nismo or Nismo lookalike. Most replicas seem to be made with fibreglass, the real ones are plastic. The side skirts make the car bloody low, I've already had a few decent hits on speed humps, and when I saw the price on replacing them, I decided to get them repaired instead lol

Uh oh haha, I knew it would make it lower but was hoping it wouldn't be too much lower!

Have you lowered your car too Kristian? I'm hoping I can survive my driveway when I get my car back tonight.. the front lip gets a good bashing already at home and I had to take it off!

Yep agree, there is no way mine is driving over a coke can either, unless the can is on its side maybe :whistling:

if it can go over a coke can on its side... its still to high... flat coke can FTW!

Mine are F/G from JSAI. They were as I recall, about $700 for both sideskirts and rear pods.

I had my front splitter body-colour-coded at the same time (but that's on a car which is already black).

Bodyform Aero makes/fits the same. E: [email protected] P: (02)87835446

I was originally going to say that, lol

By the way, Animal Chin is at my place

hahaha.. "i have a friend, his name is animal, dont worry bout his name, he's not a cannibal, he's always happy, he's got a grin... have you seen him..

he's Animal ch-ch-ch-chin!"

ill be there sunday so we'll find him... is johnny rad there too?? dont want to miss his gig... you guys are gelling.

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
