Nissan adds to the Heritage program

[Silverhks]

Nissan has add 24 more pieces to the Heritage program.

Linky Here

Nismo link in Japanese. This works better on my phone where it will translate.

The highlights in my mind are new blocks, heads and R32 body panels.

I wonder if they would be making any changes to the metallurgy.

Great to see

Hoping for some more R33 parts myself.

Still it is amazing that this is occurring and I can't wait to see what they produce next.

My expectation is that aluminium front end panels would be in high demand.  Any GTR that has suffered a front end collision has trashed the bonnet and or guards.  These are usually scrounged off another car, not repaired.  Must be in dwindling supply nowadays.

I would think there'd be a big interest in seats and door trims.  Anyone buying the bits that are already available for a restoration project would almost certainly jump on the most visible parts.  Door glass (to get rid of scratches) would be a possibility, along with the various electrical components in the doors (window switches, power window boxes).

Some of these things may still be around in some numbers in NOS, but I'd expect a lot to be running out.

Unfortunately I don't see the front panels listed. Only the bumpers and rear quarters. I hope the fronts will be added.

 

I haven't needed to look up windows.

Are they that hard to get?

[r32-25t]

Haven’t seen front windows for years

Didn't think the 05U blocks ever went out of production. Still always been obtainable. New 05U casting type maybe ?

We need to find some more info on this.

I didn't say "the" front panel.  I just said that front panels should be in demand, in response to previous poster's "see what they produce next".

As to block metallurgy......I would not hold my breath.  It's not as if the cast material they were using had any problems.  The design, on the other hand, is where the block is weak, and the design is what they really won't change.

yep I agree regarding the block
