#@Sick_R31 knows how to do it and where to get the shocks.

Yes, yes i do. 2 options

  1. Buy new strut/hinges from nissan. pm me your chassis and model number so i can get the part numbers for you and the cheapest place to get them from
  2. Fit aftermarket struts. Probably the cheaper option as new struts should be around the $30 mark each.

Sick_R31: I really need some new shocks for my R33 to hold the GTR wing and boot up. Do these aftermarket shocks come with the brackets? I've looked into the genuine ones but they are about $100 or so each

Let me know if you can help :)

I don't remember the exact fitting method but I know they don't come with the brackets. You drill out the upper mount of the factory strut and the new one screws in through that hole.

Crazy! I was about to make a new thread and found this started yesterday when my boot decided to split my head open!

I am around Hendra and keen to get the maniacal boot fixed before it breaks my neck! I was putting groceries in the boot and the back end was on a slight decline...BAM! Stabbed in the back of my head for the first time by the car I have owned since January 1998

I am lazy(too busy) and would just like to replace the genuine ones with the like kind.

The aftermarket ones don't come with brackets, minor modification is required to fit them.

Genuine ones are $118 each plus postage through http://www.amayama.com

Am I the only person with original boot struts that still work?

They work right up until your boot decides to go all guillotine on your head

Mine work just fine thank you!!! As long as I am on a flat surface or I reverse in my driveway that has an inclination of about 15 degrees LOL

Bitch has turned into a Guillotine on a declining angle!

I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
