Hey Guy's

I am one of the lucky few that has a dash in my R32 GTR with no bubbles/lifting and I want to do as much as possible to keep it that way.

I have had a protectomat dash mat made up by Vechicle Protection Co in CastleHill (www.vipco.com.au)

Very happy with the quality and fit. Its of a very good quality velour and stitch. Other colours are available.

It cost me $85 delivered to regional nsw.

If your interested contact phil at [email protected]. He is very helpful and turned around the mat in a few days. Mention jason from SAU and im sure he will look after you. They should also have mats for the R33/R34

Here are some quick pics. I have yet to fit the velcro/adhesive pads. I reckon it looks great and compliments the interior

Looks great! would be keen on one. wonder if we could get a group buy up

they sure do. i personally dont have the time to organise a group buy but im happy to ask phil if there is a bulk discount.

in my opinion given the quality and fitment they are worth the $70. Thats cheaper then replacing a dash. I doubt there is much margin in such an item to discount but we can ask

What holds it up/on ?

Seen the damage the Velcro tabs (glue) can do from dash pads. Hence my question.

That one seems to fit better than some I have seen

At the moment nothing. It is so well fitted to the design of the dash it needs nothing to hold it.

I have also done a drive up macquarie pass last week and the mat didnt budge

an adhesive velcro stripped is supplied and i will fit in places where the mat sits up a little.

Before purchasing I did enquire about what damage the adhesive can do. Phil confirmed it cleans up easy with Metho

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
