Yep, that was mine.

Hmm, 750 bucks currently for a leather interior, popup screen, reversing camera and Nismo exhaust which are all in good condition.

Turbo, intake, dump may be okay, but I don't know.

Steering looks fine!!

Oh, and that headlight was fine Alex :P The other one, well that was in a million bits... instantly. Can't believe how readily they disintegrate!

Scott, and what radiator cap to you have Mr. Mishimoto?

Should've grabbed that damn G35 battery cover pinch.gif

Quick search for "battery cover" brings up this Paul whistling.gif

Any Nissan/Infinity dealer in the US, I went through West Covina Nissan for mine, but they are not so cooperative since Tony left.

Might even be some on Ebay Motors.

Should be a bit cheaper now though, I believe my mate got his recently for around the $100 but really needs to make up a couple of brackets.

How much factory bodywork did you need to cut? Any pics?

looks a lot neater with that cover.

Cheers

Yep, looks waaay nicer with one.

If you look at yours, you will see that there is an extra 10-15mm(?) of metal above the square rubber grommets for your hoses.

Cut that in line with the top of the grommets and run a brush with some rust prohibitive paint, then all you need to do is make up a small bracket for the top right section of the cover and cut a little in that area to fit :)

Surely they have some stupid hidden reserve for like 6k?

Yep, I was told they had $6k on it.

You can't cut the plastic cover?

I'm somewhat interested, but I can't find the run through from last time you did the group buy - am I just not searching properly? It's not on here or the 'somewhat awesome' forum as far as I can tell?

You won't find one.

GB didn't go ahead and it was only after I installed mine that I thought of offering the GB.

I think you can cut the plastic cover, but I couldn't see doing so would end up with a satisfactory finish so I cut the top strip of metal instead.

No need to worry Ryan, it is not a big job.

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
