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!

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

      Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.

      Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
