Worth buying just for the Nismo radiator cap... NOT. lol.

[iamhe77]

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 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

[slippylotion]

How much and where did you you get that g35 battery cover? Looks like a group buy might be on the cards for this ?

[iamhe77]

Quick search for "battery cover" brings up this Paul

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.

[slippylotion]

Cool, thanks for that. I was going to search for info after I washed the car but you beat me to it.

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

looks a lot neater with that cover.

Cheers

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

Yep I'm in!

[slippylotion]

Already contacted a seller in the US to bring them in in lots of 5. Should know a price in next few days.

[jasevr4]

Sounds good mate!

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

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

[zei20l]

somehow i dont think they will get 6k for it

2-3k i rekon

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?

i have been bidding on this car, but unfortunately i have reached the limit that the minister for finance will allow

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.

[Aegats]

Who ever buys it should sell me some parts of that.

[Sage222]

i could def go some leather and a nismo exhaust

if someone gets it let me know
