oh hello,

sorry if im bringing up something that is already covered somewhere on here, however i cant find anything relevant through searching :/

anyway my problem is the plastic mud cover that screws under the engine ( driver side in front of the tire) has snapped and is currently being held up by string i managed to find n do a highwayside repair.

so the question being does anyone know what this is called and how do i get a new one?

don't really wanna cable tie it up as it had already been done before and ripped the plastic.

secondly a while back i was re-calibrating my central locking so that the passenger door would open with the driver door,

all i was doing was loosening a screw from a bit of metal that holds two steel rods together,

adjusting the stop height,

and tightening until it was right and basically the passenger door locked as it should.

got it all sorted and went to give it a final lock off so i wouldnt have to worry about it again and snapped the part because i screwed it too tight... :(

sorry for the lengthy explanation

is anyone familiar with this part / knows what it is called and how i can order another one?

thanks :D

hey buddy this is usually referred to as a guard liner or splash guard... best bet would be to ask around with people who are wrecking a r33 or try import wreckers...

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
