Hey all

Some little wanker badged my Gtr last night on my 33. The rear one.

I've rung wreckers etc but most are $100+ if they have them at all.

I've checked out eBay, but some look really tacky. Can someone suggest some they have bought that look really good with perfect sizing?

Fkn pissed off right now.

Ahh sucks mate, that's always one thing I thought must be nerve wracking as a GTR owner. Did they at least do a good job of it, didn't damage the paint or anything?

Unfortunately I think if you are set on replacing it and going genuine then you're going to have to fork out for it :(

fatz was wrecking a whole R33 GTR wasn't he? PM him. It was front end damaged only.

JJ and Toy Shop and others in PI magazine may have a half cut with the badge still on?

Wreckers? Otherwise new from JJ already mentioned...

If you score, you just need double sided tape.

Considering now getting a GTR sticker made...

As ive been badged once in two weeks of owning it and last GTR was done twice.

Wonder what it would look like?

Person #1 looking at GTR Sticker:- "Why is there a sticker there? Shouldn't it be a badge?"

Person #2:- "Dunno. Maybe it's been debadged?"

Person #1:- "Geez, maybe it's been debadged many times?"

Person #2:- "Well if it has, I'd prefer to put the badge back on and get a different sticker for inside the car."

Person #1:- "Waddayamean?"

Person #2:- "Inside the windscreen, the sticker will say, 'This car is protected by shotgun 3 days a week - Guess WHICH DAY!'"

Person #2's 2c

This is on of the major reasons for me leaving my Rb26Dett powered GTS4 with stock blue GT badges and Nothing on the back to say otherwise.

Actaully on that notes....One of the GT badges were not stuck on when i got the car. it was in the glove box.

How are these put on from factory? double tape as terry sugessted?

As my garage is full at the moment my gtr is living in my driveway. My dog went off last night, so as usual i ran to the front to make sure my baby was ok (im paranoid even though i live in a good area).... no one was to be seen. After reading this thread, i just so happened to check out my badge on my way out of the office and noticed a scratch on paint leading up to the badge (very small) that looks like someone has tryed to pry it off with a screw driver. This was not there before and i saw kids walking the street a little earlier that night.

Note to self: Clear out garage and buy a gun.

Note to adz2332: Buy a dog.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
