Just got my nismo side skirts in and I picked up new mounting hardware from nissan. I was hoping someone can give me some details about the mounting process, I assume all my lower mounting holes are present but what about the upper portion of the rear pieces?

Cheers

just uses double sided tape afaik

how much was the mounting hardware? what did it consist of?

would love to take mine apart clean and re fit

Just double sided tape won't do it. Maybe for the guard section, in front of the rear wheel. I mounted mine a few months ago. (3m tape). If you don't have the clips then sikaflex may be a option.

Best option is getting the clips and doing it properly.

Good info - slowridn73. They're a pain to track down part numbers etc

Use 3M PT1100 double sided tape. It's made for that kind of stuff. The Original side spats fits perfectly to the chassic, you wont get any problems with this tape.

Using it myself for two years now. Best tape for exterieur parts like side skirts or spats. But let it harden for a few hours after you applied it, best with a slight pressure against the spats.

Double sided tape works best and its the way it's supposed to be done, don't f**k about with any type of glue you will regret it!

Double sided tape + clips. Water, dust and grime deteriorate the tape on the underside of the car. Plus it's super easy to line up with the clips.

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
