Good afternoon all, 

Back from the dead and purchased another R32.

I'm have started the process of returning the cars body back to factory. It currently has genuine N1 side skirts and rear pods (the grey things behind the back wheel, I think they're called pods, dunno). Anyway putting out an expression of interest. I can not guarantee when these will be taken off as the car is currently in a queue to be painted but my best guess will be into next year. Maybe at the end of this year all going well. 

I would like to sell them, I have an idea of what the skirts are worth based on what they are new.. of course Im not asking for brand new prices, but I am not giving them away. The rear pods I know are no longer made.

If you're interested let me know and we can sort something out at a later date.

Cheers

Joey

Hmm.

Pretty sure the real GTR skirts don't work on my car (GTSt). That's sad because those are lovely**.

Would love to think that the GTR pods would fit without gaps. Wouldn't love to take the risk.

**That whole car looks like a lovely example.

Ty sir, 

Yea the car looks fantastic, I really just want the factory look :) 

not sure about fitting GTSts so probably not worth the risk.

Joey, are you still in playing "spanner club" Mafia somewhere mate? Or you now out in the real world where you actually have to work for a living?

BTW, the car looks clean, and the pods look sweet, are you removing to go full OEM type of resto?

LOL, I sold the Skyline and had a supercharged VX SS Commodore for a few years, so a change in username was required, by law, I currently have another MX5, a NC this time, so a new, more suitable user name is probably due again......

As for me, I reach CRA in around 3 months, and most of that will be burnt up with some leave and some skyving off doing "pers admin", so life is bloody wonderful 

All the best with your endeavours 🫡

Matt, I resemble that, although, I did need to edit your post about my hair mate, although the height and demeanour you said is pretty accurate 🤣

You have been hanging around, I thought you would have been gone by now for sure. Though sounds like it's working out for you :D

Thank you sir. No doubt we will cross paths again at some point!

Do you have a price in mind yet?

Hi Luke, haven't thought about it a lot, trying to get the car into the paint shop first. 

Did you want to make an offer? As stated above, I'm just looking for fair market price.

Not ready yet, but maybe later in the year?

    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
