Yeah talking about the ones on the rear bumper… these ones are easy to get from top secret. The rear bumper ones are impossible. A friend of mine was selling his for 3500 aud. shocked no one replicates them.

Sorry I'm late to this, but if you're still looking or for others who happen upon this, pretty sure these are what you're(and I'm) after.....

I'm personally interested in the Muse set, as they are also made out of ABS instead of fibreglass.

Hi Luke. Yeah I actually ordered a set of muse ones from highintakeperformance. They are delivering them to me this weekend after 3 months. I think they are replicas of the nismo ones in a different material if I am not mistaken.

According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same.

Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.

 

Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.

According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly.

The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM PUR-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs PURs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.

--edit-- Bloody talking bullshit. TPU wasn't a thing back then. I've been afflicted by 3D-printing-itis.  I mean PUR. PUR-RIM is Polyurethane- Reaction Injection Moulding, which was all the range back then.

Will do. Car just came out of the shop so will wait 3 weeks to go to the body shop. Still working on my motor.

Here’s the updated and installed muse replica nismo ones … very happy with the outcome. Eventhough I painted my whole rear end due to my rich idle lol.

What did the rear look like before repaint from the "rich idle"?

That looks a bit like yellowing to me. If the rear bar was looking like that from rich idle, I'd ask the question, do you have a catalytic converter fitted, and fully working?

lol no cats running str pipes … might put the high flow back on but I suspect it might effect my ignition timing a bit.

No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain.

Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.  
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
