ebay is your friend

I needed to replace my worn handbrake boot in my R33 GTST so I did a search on eBay and found this store (linked to the Nissan section). I chose the one I liked and it fit perfectly and was made well with nice leather. Not Nismo though.

Anyone used these leather handles from the UK??

They look ok

I've got a few bits from them including the leather handle (they accidentally sent it to me when I ordered some other pieces). It's not bad, nice tight fit. Superior Auto Creative stuff is pretty good but I didn't feel like having a carbon fibre look handle. They have a few interesting bits including a full R32 leather dash cover now.

So I ordered the hand brake handle off that UK company on eBay..

After many emails I never received the part.

So I've bought an entire new OEM handbrake assembly from Japan for $189

Should have just went that way to start with

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
