Hey all,

Ive already searched for this but couldnt find anything of much use. How do i remove the door trims from an R32 GTSt? Ive got all 5 screws from around the edge out, as well as the plastic clip things and the big screw under the arm rest, but i cant seem to be able to remove the door handle assembly.

Not wanting to break it, how do i do it?

Also, the rear parcel shelf speaker grilles, do i just pull them off? Or are there clips or something im not seeing.

Thanks,

Rhett

ok, the ediging on the door handles sort of pulls out. get the door handle on the inside of the car into the open door position and pull out the outer plastic.

now there is a screw hiding in the hole for pulling the door shut. It's under a plastic cap. There also another to screws behind caps near the door hinge.

U might want to take the triangle plastic bit off that sit's behind the revision mirror cus it will get a little scratched if u leave it in. Now removing all that just push the door cover up and it should come all off.

Rear parcel tray is held on buy clips from what i rember i just kept pulling mine till it came off.. After i had removed my speakers. ( My car had the alpine nfit option with speakers and all...)

U might want to take the back seat out, than u can see a bit more of what u r trying to do.

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
