Hey from Canada! Do you guys know what the part number for the windsceen on an a31 is? (if glass has a part number) Glass isn't my specialty. Or, does anyone know what substitutes there is? Like an e90's maxima?

Just go to a auto glass fitter and give them the model number (Nissan A31 Cefiro) they should be able to get one in if they dont already have one. I Aus the place I rang had one in stock ;)

Give it a go, or alternatively go to nissan.

Hey, thanks for the tips. I apreaciate any help. But the Cefiro was not exported to Canada and it is very rare in canada. I imported my car strait from Japan, there is maybe 10-20 in all of Canada. (I'm probably wrong but you get the idea). I go to a nissan dealer and they look at me like, wtf is a cefiro, lol. But I have been looking around at local autoglass shops...Maximas windscreens don't fit, there about 6 inches wider.

Anyone know if a s13 windscreen fits?

No, things like windscreens are car specific if the maxima was locally delivered to your country then they would be able to get you a windscreen cos the maxima is the cefiro, it's the same thing really...

No, accualy the Maxima and the cefiro are not the same until 1992, which would be the A32. Which is too bad cuase, like I said, even though the 90 maxima is very close, it's about 6 inches to wide. You are right, windsceens are very specific. Guess I have to grab my wallet and order one from Japan.

hi,

exhaust question here for Cefiro:

Dump pipe/front pipe, will a aftermarket R32 one fit?

also, cooler kits....will a R32 fit?

thanks

If going for Aftermarket goto Reinhard they make a specific Cefiro front pipe. (www.hipowerracing.com - Contact Ivan).

Any FMIC cooler will fit with enough cutting and shutting of the front bar... if talking about piping, the R32 piping needs to be cut slightly. EG: Pipe which goes across the front of the engine and then joined with a silicon pipe for example.

ALSO>>> Hand brake cable? Part No.? Alternative car for straight fit?...

R32 handbrake goes into laurel so i would assume its the same.

R34 gtt stock sidemount intercooler is pretty much a straight swap into a ceffy. You use the ceffy bracket and cut of the piece for the snorkel off with a hacksaw. You also need to cut a section of of the splash guard cause it sits lower than the stock one.

The ceffy sidemount set up is very similar to the r33 and r34 not r32

is there much difference in cooling efficiency from the r34gtt item over the stock ceffy item?

yea i noticed much greater pulling power when boost kicked in and esp after 5000 revs when i was finding mine was dropping off as a result of the increased boost i had, and there was no lag difference. Plus they are rated for up to 200kw ...so i figured i would try it instead of a big front mount. At the moment i dont think i will be going over the 200kw mark so i thought it was the best option for now. There are acouple of threads in the forced induction section on this.

cheers for that Resin, read both those threads. were pretty interesting. You have me hooked on getting one now! Espec that i'm not after huge power figures either and i also get that same drop in power after a bit of revs. Don't seem too pricey either.

    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY
