Not sure if this is the right section to post it, but I'm just wondering if anyone in Victoria is interested in having their B-pillars wrapped in 3m Carbon Fibre Vinyl?

The 3M Carbon Fibre Vinyl has an outdoor life of 4-5 years with sun and shine. You can even feel the weave on the vinyl!

I'd be doing the wrapping myself. I've done it for Ashneel and SS8_Gohan already and they both seem happy with it.

I was thinking if there's enough people, I can do it for $30 per pair :banana:

Looks fantastic.

I had the Nismo garnish's on mine, but I have to admit that these a very schmick!

I was just about to spend like $130 on a pair of nismo ones, but after seeing them in real life, it honestly isn't impress me. IMO, the vinyl looks a lot better than nismo :)

I'd definitely be in, even if there is no group buy i'd pay you to do it

Well I'll see if there's gonna be more people interested, but if not, you can just drop by whenever and I'll do it for you :( doesn't take long at all.

If you are buying a bulk order of this wrap I'll buy some off you, as it is not cost effective to ship a small amount over. I'll do the wrapping myself as I just have a few interior trim pieces I want to do (and the B pillars too, but mine are much smaller than Skyline ones :banana: ).

Alright no worries, at this point in time, I'm looking to buy a 1.2m x 10m roll in a couple of weeks :)

Also, I've also started to wrap my mate's Liberty and it looks awesome :P

Looks good Charles. Just wondering if you have any info about what to do when the vinyl starts expiring. Does it peel off or just fade? Is it easy to remove to replace a new layer? Or would you just wrap another layer onto the old one?

Well 3M stated that the vinyl can last about 4-5 years when it's outdoor (exterior) and about 12 years indoor (interior). So when it reaches its lifespan, it will just start to fade.

So then you can just use a heat gun to peel it off, then apply it again :D As the vinyl comes with an adhesive backing, it may leave a little bit of glue residue, but it can be polished off easily.

Removing the vinyl is easy, as I've done it so many times already, because I keep doing my interior parts until I get it perfect :thumbsup:

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By S1_C34 · Posted

      I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.

      CD009 RB Conversion

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
