Item: R32 GTR Clear Indicators

Location: Melbourne Australia

Item Condition: New

Reason for Selling: Don't complement the look I'm going for

Price and Payment Conditions: $350 plus postage. Full payment up front to my Bank Acct, can organise paypal if you cover the fees.

Extra Info:

These are brand spanking new indicators, they've never been fitted to a moving car. I fitted them to mine for all of about 1/2 an hour before deciding that they made my R32 look like an R33. It may tickle the fancy of some, but it didn't do it for me. I hung onto em for the good part of a year before deciding that I was never gonna fit em, so I'm selling em now.

They were brought down from Japan (so technically they are "JDM tyte" :P). I don't know if the bulbs light up (the orange ones came with the indicator), because I've never bothered to hook em up. Ideally you'd wanna fit chromed/clear bulbs that light up bright orange, because standard yellow bulbs will look gay in this type of indicator. The pair also have some silver paint spattered on the plastic housing (on the outside, where no one will see them because they're hidden by the inner guard and fender). They also have a silver ring of around the lens that looks to have been sprayed on. I don't know why they're there, and I didn't want to try and take it off for fear of damaging the lens.

You can buy em yourselves from D-Speed:

for 38,000 yen, that's almost $500 plus postage and all the other fees you'll probably have to pay to some backyard "parts import specialist" bring it down for you.

Here's a bigger pic of the pair (yes, they are on top of my laundry basket :P):

They are no different to a standard R32 GTR indicator other than the clear lens and no inner bubble. The have standard GTR mounts, which means they won't fit anything other than a GTR.

Further condition for this thread:No bitching, no "you can get em cheaper <insert location>", if you don't like the price being asked for, keep it to yourself.

I will start taking offers at $350, and let this run for a week, obviously the highest offer will get the set. Keep in mind they're only worth $500 so I wouldn't expect to get an offer that's more than that. I may choose to retract the sale at any time if somehow I'm convinced that an R33 is a good looking car. :D

These will NOT fit a GTSt, GTS, GTS4, GXi, or GTE, nor will they fit anything other than a R32, although it'll probably fit a civic or integra, seeing as you can fit everything from R34 tail lights to mercedes headlights on them.

The lens on this indicator is a single moulded piece, unlike the narrow body variant which is composed of two pieces glued together.

You can pick em up from me if you're in melbourne, or I will ship to anywhere in the world, as long as you cover the cost of postage from Melbourne Australia. I'll mark em as a gift, sample products of no commercial value, your grandma's christmas present, or whatever you want if you don't wanna pay taxes. They'll arrive in a box, bubble wrapped and paper padded.

AFAIK the vertex fenders for an R32 GTSt are only wider above the wheel arch, and not at the indicator, which means they won't allow for a physically wider GTR indicator, which this set is. You will need GTR guards and GTR bumper supports to mount this indicator onto a GTSt.

Funkey - as an aside, do they look like standard Nissan items modified with a clear lens?

i reckon they are and they've used a silver paint around the edges to hide the rejoining marks... what do you think>?

Its a single clear piece (obviously made from a mould taken of an orange lens), the joins are in the black area just like an original lens, so there's really no reason for the silver paint. Looking at it, its sprayed over clear glass.

Beats me why its there, as I found it pretty pointless. If anything the edgeing makes it line up better with the headlights, as the headlights have a black edging caused by the inner plastic.

    • The alloy coolant reservoir has a sight glass, so as long as I can see coolant in the sight glass it's GTG, as for PS, it isn't anything catastrophic if it gets low, and as it hasn't lost a drop since I have owned the car I cannot see it being an issue, even after putting the "big block" 2.5 in....LOL The only time it gets slightly messy is at oil changes, as the oil filter sits above the frame, and I need to use a plastic bottle with its bottom cut off to catch the flow when loosening the filter
    • Good on you for taking on the job, but it is a big one. Even if you have bolt on manifold and turbo, you will need: Post throttle pressure source to boost controller to wastegate (and FPR, and ECU/MAP sensor) Pre throttle pressure source to top of BOV(s) Oil feed - you can take that from the standard port in the middle of the block Oil return to block under the turbo - this is much trickier than it seems to route a decent/wide pipe past the manifold. You really can't use rubber hose because it is way too hot there, and also the oil out of the turbo core is a bit frothy so it needs to have a decent diameter Water feed - you can take that from the standard port in the rear of the block. Water return - mine runs to a T into the heater box return, just make sure you don't create a high point making bleeding hard. All of those lines should use 200 series style teflon braided hose with heat shielding because everything needs to be routed past the manifold. Also a turbo beanie is a really good idea to minimise the chance of the car catching fire (under bonnet lining in particular) You also need to decide a cam cover breathing solution as well, will you vent externally via a catch can (probably illegal) or return to the intake (plumbing required and can oil up everything over time) Keep in mind the intake and exhaust piping in the engine bay will be custom so you either need to be able to fab ally and steel or have someone you can get a car that isn't running to. Get the wideband fitting welded into the dump pipe at the same time. Also, just my opinion, a screamer pipe attracts attention and doesn't add power, I'd plumb it back if you want to be allowed to keep the car on the road. BTW do you know anything about how healthy the motor is, and what power you are targeting? Doubling or tripling the factory power on an unknown motor is a little risky. Also fuel system will need some attention (pumps, high current hanger, direct power and earth feed, injectors etc)
