HELP: Bits for 89 GTR BNR32

[xfixiate]

Hi fellas - need some pretty specific advice and parts

I'm hoping someone has some bits lying around to suit, plus looking for advice.

I need the LH Front guard fender protector. This piece of s* plastic protects the resonator box and the innder guard from stone chips. I have this funny feeling I'm not gonna get through rego without it. I have had a look to see if any other R32 series have the same one and it apepars they are all indeed different. I think RBNT lined me up with the front Right (just one of my stupid days)

Need advice on where to go to get a decent selection of nuts and bolts. the bumper cover is missing just about all the bolts (all f* sizes including cable ties were used). I need all shapes and sizes - round flat bolts (pref black), short ones to connect the kip, those slide on clips to hold sheet metal screws to squeeze two things together, plus the screws. Suggestions?

I also need to get new manifold nuts (block to mani, turbo to mani) as mine are destroyed in removal. Suggestions?

I want to get the oily crap cleaned out of the manifolds and dump pipes. Chemical or very mild abrasive blasting by someone who knows what they are doing. Suggestions?

I have a broken stud in one of the manifolds - supports the exhaust heat shield. Has anyone had GOOD expereince locally getting one removed. Suggestions?

Finaly, I need to find someone to do the first service and tune when the new turbos are in and . This will mean full Consult diagnostic as the car has not been run for a while, two oil changes to clean it out, new filters, check all the sensors as one of the O2 sensors looks damaged inside (detonation?). Wheel alignment (Hicas), balance. Above all, I don't want to take it to a test jockey. Suggestions?

After all this, I would of course be shouting beers at a venue to be agreed upon....

I should have the right hand side plastics jigger too. Take your to Dave at High Tech Tuning. Manifold studs are his specialty - dont tell him I sent you - its a bitch of a job.

LH Front guard fender protector. Apparently this is R32 GTR specific (according to the Nissan FAST Software. Other fender guards on R32 models are interchangeable). RBNT happy to check yours out when it arrives but I don't think it will fit. Anyone got one?

Nuts and Bolts - Bunnings is F*ed. Anywhere else? Apart from Paying $8 each nut at nissan. Need some securing screws etc.

Cleaning - Repco Workshop In Winnelie - sidesctreet next to Glenfords. Acid dipped them and they came up pretty well. Not perfect, but pretty close. He didn't want to bill me either - I gave him some nonetheless.

First service and tune - Dave doesn't have a Consult (yet) althogh he's looking at one now. Apparently the local Nissan dealer has a few test Pilots ( so I heard) so if it goes there for setup I won't get leaving the car there.

Criag at Nissan Unley got me one for $100. Screws and clips to put it on are about $1.50 each. Give Criag your part numbers using Nissan FAST and he's straight back at you with a quote at a bloody good price. Can't recommend him highly enough.

Still scoping for nuts :-)

Got all the parts, but the o2 sensors are stuffed. One looks like it had detonation (distorted badly) and the other the wires are bare out of the top and short on the casing.

Anyone done the sensors on a GTR? Can you use the EL Falcon (like they do with the GTST?)
