Hi Guys n' Gals;

The dash cover on my 32 GTR has bubbled in the usual place ie the concave right anlged-ish section just above the glovebox. I doubt it can be repaired, does anyone know;

if there's a good dash repairer in Canberra?

how big a job it is to take the dash out of a 32 GTR ie good / bad/ bastard and how long it takes? Searched on the site but found nothing, not looking for a DIY guide unless you happen to have one laying 'round that you prepared earlier, which would be great. The R33 seems firmly in the bastard category from what i gather on the forums and from Adam at BDL but I'm not sure re the 32. I've got the Nissan manual but sometimes the diags etc are so crappy it's hopless.

Regards

If its just the vinyl on top thats bubbled people have fixed it by getting glue and putting it in a very thin tipped syringe. You then poke the syringe through the vinyl (will leave a tiny weeny little hole u cant even see) and squeeze a bit of the glue in then press the vinyl down. This will re-glue it down, seems to have worked for a few people. Might try it myself, got a small bubble developing on the dash

Hi Nik;

thought about that too but it's pretty far gone, I think the vinyl has shrunk to the point that it just won't stretch back into place.

Cheers

No dramas dude, just take it easy, take your time, and make sure everything goes back where it came from, i didnt put it all back together properly one time and had a few problems which ended up being something very simple and easy to fix

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
