I have 2 aussie spec gaurds on the front of my DR, the only difference I found with them was the holes for the badge and the holes for the pod of the DR body add ons, which was as easy to change as drilling 3 small holes.

Never understood why people pay so much for DR gaurds, mine cost $20 each for mint ones from the wreckers

Slightly hard from WA

Wish we still had our PickAParts in WA, but the land value in Welshpool where the big one was would be worth probably 1.5 million now :banana:

That's an interesting call, because the area Dapto is on would be worth 10million today, easy.

Getting a guard in mint condition isn't the issue, the issue would be getting it to WA in same condition. It could be insured but that just gets your money back, doesn't get the guard you need.

Wouldn't it be easier getting it through your local Nissan dealer? They could order it through the FAST system, ex Japan and you would be assured of it's condition when you picked it up?

Steve, Standard guards are fairly easy to come by, but your mint order is the hard part. To ship to WA from Sydney would be expensive too. If there was some small blemishes you would have to get the beater to fix it before painting.

Have you tried contacting Carolyn Kruger (Cazz) for a price on a new guard, she says she can get new bits at good prices.

Was hoping for something just straight with the correct indicator. I nearly bought interstate twice but both had the wrong indicator.

I am also considering sucking it up and getting the Jenesis FRP gaurds, but thats a last resort.

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
