I just stacked my 32 gtr and need the following for the L/H side:

Headlight

Indicator

Guard

Door

Rear quarter panel

Rear tail light

Also need a R/H door

If you know of any wreckers with these parts could you please let me know. I don't really want my car sitting around. Need to get it fixed so I can most likely stack it again. Its true what people say about 32 gtr's "If you fight them they will bite you back". I just learnt the hard way.

Performance jap specialists in campbellfield - there my close freinds and my good mate is the main mechanic there - they do excellent stuff, probably one of the only importers that dont "rip" people off and they do have a few panels - I will ask them for u Garreth.

Otherwise, in that area in campbellfield, I go and see all the wreckers around there (part of my job)and they have a LOT of GTR panels - campbellfield is like a Jap import parts heaven, u can find almost ANYTHING there, but you gotta be careful cos most of them will try to go to town on you and rip you off - best thing to do is tell them what u wanna spend, go a bit lower than that -and they shud give u the price.

But you would almost defeintly find panels - ive seen PLENTY of rear GTR cuts and fronts and 1000s of doors. Getting it in red tho? Dont like ur chances so youd have to get it sprayed. When im there during the week, I can ask around, so just PM me ur mobile or somethin so I can tell you.

Gareth I got to see you in the wall and was shattered for you mate. I'm just super glad your ok. Thats a fast spot and could have been a whole lot worse.

And honestly after seeing you burried in there I was never able to go flat out through there for the rest of the day.

Hope you get it all sorted as painless as possible mate.

:thumbsup:

Damn, That's an awesome photo!

Sorry to see the accident Rowdy... You had just passed me on the back straight when I saw the rear end lose traction at the left hand kink with lots of smoke and spin around then slide laterally/backwards helplessly into the tyrewall at about 100km/h throwing a few tyres in the air! I was like holy shit!!#@ gear down to 4th, continued around to the front straight until they got on the radio and called the red flag. Nasty to see it all happen right in front of me... the in car video footage would have been spectacular if i had a camera setup on the day.

All the best with the rebuild dude, good to see u put on a brave face when looking at all the damage.

:thumbsup:

Sorry to hear about the car G...

T&H in campbellfield have heaps of Nissan parts (GTRgeoffs excellent suggestion)

78 Horne St Campbellfield 3061 (03) 9357 1435

Probably get the headlight there at the very least.

Oh and btw we almost always haggle a heaps better price with them.

If you manage to find headlights and can't split a pair, let us know caus 46n2 is after a drivers side h/light & we'll go halves with you :D

speakin of panel damage n such, sum lady hit my 33 gts-t when i was turnin the other night, so i need parts for it, obviously easy to find as 33's are all to common in melb.

my question is, if i went 2 that place ( performance jap specialists ), what price you reckon i'd be able to score a new passenger door, new passenger seat, and mb a rear passenger panel ( not sure yet, that might jst need sum panel beating )???

also can you recommend some good panel beaters in that sort of area ( campbellfield etc ) coz i live about.. 90kms from melb but the panel beaters round here aren't to used of working on imports and i dont want a dodgy job done.

thanks in advance :D

Here are some picture of my car. I have tracked down all the parts except a front gaurd. Just for parts including a new rear quarter panel but not including a front guard it is only up to $1400. Also I spoke to a mate after work and I should be able to get into a heated spray booth for free. Hopefully I can pay the owner in beer to spray it or if not my mate will spray it. He does a good job on helicopters so a car should be easy.

Also what power is mats car making?

Troy whats the go with the wrx meeting and where is it.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
