Finally, I have organised a deal with Unique Autosports (UAS) on the Series 3 GTR Lips.

Now, some have had concerns about the quality of the UAS lips.. and going by the lip we received yesterday, it's actually not that bad. the only concern was on the left air vent, the finish could have been better, (which means the panel beater will spend a little extra time to fill it up) the rest of the lip is very nice, even the factory black ripple finish looks awesome. I'll try to organise some pics on Monday, and include the slight imperfections.

John from Unique Autosports (UAS) is offering the following for all SAU forum members: whether you order 1 or 100, there is no waiting for numbers.

$240.00 +(delivery, approx $50-80). (normally $295.00)

Turn around is usually within 2weeks.

So for those lucky enough to be nearby in NSW, that $240.00

All you need to do is mention you saw the offer on SAU forum.

Cheers

Simon

NOTE: The pic below is a Genuine GTR Series Lip (~$1300) the UAS Non Genuine Fibreglass Lips is the same minus the blade in the air pockets. As soon as my car is finished I will post up pics.

Hi Blitz, sorry mate at the momet just in fibre glass, no carbon fibre.. But I have the carbon fibre wing blade on my gtr, which I'll probably be taking off when I sell the car.. Definatley looks horn, and when I do I'll keep you in mind.

OK just picked my car.. and have to admit, leaving it in the factory black looks might awesome. Had a chat with my mate the panel beater, and asked him what he thought of the quality of the lip, an how whether it gave hime trouble fitting or not. He reckons he's seen much better finishes, and assumes that the UAS lip mould was probably taken from a busted lip which was pieced together again.

The panel beater spent a bit of time making shaping the lip to make it look schmick, which in the end, both he & I were both rapt about. Overall, the lip looks awesome, and for a measly ~$500, including the lip, delivery, fitting and spraying it was definatley worth it, just pray I don't go scraping out of low driveways..

PS: I just picked the car up, and it's p!issing down rain here in Melbourne. I'll try to take some pics over the weekend.

We actually bought this mould from QLD and no it is not our normal standard but not too bad. I did mention this though to meshmesh and glad it is all OK. We could do in carbon but might not be too good as tight bends and cost at least twice as much.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • 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).
