I can get a pair off easily enough > but who do I know that can drill a hole to make an earring?

And that fellahs...

is what happens when your lovely Nismo items are so small and defenceless!

Ummm white spoke stickers? Again Chris, I'd PM elrodeo666 and Marcus will do his best - quickly!

...or eBay. But some stickers can be a fraction too big > need to be the right size if you can.

If you mean the Nismo wording on the LMGT4, I wouldnt bother with genuine stuff personally.

The last time I enquire about that, you'd need to get them from Rays and they're around 25 or 30 EACH + you need to provide prove of owning a set of LMGT4 (maybe invoice, photos?) before they will sell them to you. This was 2years ago though.

I end up getting the decals from Ebay. All you need to do is measure up the existing one you have and send the dimension to the seller that makes a Nismo decal. Less than 10bucks posted.

Thanks heaps for that!

Do you also know if Nismo sell the white stickers for the Balck LMGT4s?

I gotta say - don't bother getting the nismo wheel valve caps. I had mine on about a week before they were stolen.

I'd only thrown them on after I'd chucked them in on order from RHD with other stuff because they were so cheap - and thought they might set off the LMGT4 and nismo wheel nuts. Ah well.

I recently ordered 4 of these through Streeter, and there was none of this hassle. they cost around 20$ each.....fml but having said that i think i'll get Ebay ones next time!

i have a set..and i'm contemplating whether to put them on or not =(

mm cant help you much there, im pretty sure with the Rs they mount from the passenger side vent on the front bar under the indicator light, but you need the nismo front bar for the outlet just infront of the wheel behind where the cooler sits to actually allow air to flow through... if it doesnt work out on your i would be interested init... but im broke atm anyways haha

haha yeah i've looked up the pics on a GTR and it's slightly different as they seem to have a mounting bracket/bar, i swear this item was advertised for a GTT when i bought it (from Japan)! quite confused. Oh well, will have a look one weekend/when i install FMIC.

available for all models. expensive though for what they are - a cover

Edit: (I painted mine black a while ago and it looks 10x better than the OEM grey)

Now this has come out I'll give it thought.

Nismo power brace, to suit my 180sx. Nismo take the old stock units, box the sections and add a bar between the arms.idea is to stiffen the front up to prevent flex and make the susp work harder. Finish isn't crash hot, but since it's a under car bit, I'm not fussy. In fact I'm not fussy anyway lol! Basically acts as a strut brace for the lower suspension.

So are they pre-fabricated or do you have to send in your old units? Pretty cool piece either way.

You just buy them, no exchange needed. Guess they go round stealing them off old wrecks and old Oem stock!

Can't work out why one side of the bar is braced extra, but guess they know.

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
