Ladies/Gents,

Damn that sucks, use to park my line there fairly regular, no one obviously likes the little GT bagdes that much.

What the hell do these wankers do with a pair of GT-R badges anyway? Stick them on their commo so it's 'fully sick'

I got mine de-badged a few yrs back, lucky the guy was a pro, no damage to the paint

You can get a genuine one from Nissan for about $60-80

friend of mine has a 32 GTR. He had the badges stuck on with industrial strength velcro and then whenever he parked somewhere in town etc he just pulled them off and put them in the car. You couldn't tell if you looked at them that they were only stuck on.

He went out the other week though and forgot to remove the badges first. Got back to his car and they were gone :( I guess the only upside is that the paint wasn't damaged.

It’s a real shame that people do these sort of things and velcro has to be used so badges can be removed when parking your car :)

Someone who works at the same place as my mum bought an Aus delivered R32 GTR back in 1992, he said he couldnt take it anywhere, badged, scratched, damaged etc. Bogans must have been a bit more upset back then than they are now...

Sucks to hear though, hopefully it doesnt cost too much to get it back the way it was!

Heheh. Aside from the GTR badge on the back, the rest of my badges have been removed prior to the last respray

just hope no mongrel keys it

twas 140 for a r32 gtr badge when i spoke to them, that was few years ago though. i think 32s is the only 1s that have specific badges for specific colours because the sticky bit behind needs to match your car. lol just noticed u got 33 so prob cheaper for urs then :)

and as for what they do with them i dont know, but i usually get pretty mad when i see a fake gtr with a badge present thinking is that mine you lil f er

    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
    • street use or race track, what hose size and why? what factors change with the hose size options ?   see most comon is an10. when you see most oem external coolers are closer to an12? does high volume oil pump like nitto need an12 or 10 be just fine
