Post your Skylines

[CDE]

I saw a Soarer the other day with cool plugs...they were beveled very slightly and looked good. They were chrome and probably had a rubber washer to seal it. I have no idea where you'd get these though...not much help!!

keep thinking im gonna find the perfect plugs somewhere where i least expect it like in the houseware department or something like that

Very true 92rs

Keep us updated and I'll let you know if I find anything.

Too bad we didn't talk to the owner of the Skyline that had some plugs parked right beside your car that night.

I've pluged mine untill I weld the holes shut. I've got a bunch of the small ones I can bring out and install at the next meet, too busy right now as it's only day 5 of my 20 days of work in a row.

Hi Ryan

Welcome to our site. Can you let us know where you got the plugs from?

[RyanGTS-T]

Sorry guys I've been really busy lately. I work at lordco so I try my best to get stuff there before I resort to ordering stuff in from Japan. Anyway I bought a new spoiler off of c-unit on gtrcanada.com and well you cant have two on there, that would just be silly. So I removed the stock spoiler only to realize I was left 5 holes (3 small mounting holes and two larger sized ones for the wiring of the 3rd brake light).

Your Solution:

Drive down to your local Lordco and walk to the back counter. Ask if they have a Geno section and where it is (Geno is a company dedicated to all your interior clips and fittings as well as many other things such as waterproof plugs). Should be a spinning rack with a bunch of blister packs with things in them. You want part # 1-14923. It should be a 10piece pack of the plugs for the smaller holes. You will have to bring your car down to match up the ones for the bigger holes as I cant remember which ones I used. Also If customers haven't messed around with it the entire spinning GENO rack should be in numarical order 1-2-3-4-5 and so on.


Also wherever that thread was with the pics from the Ikea meet, there is a link to a picture of my car's bum next to the blue cars bum. In that pic you'll notice my new mounting brackets installed for the new spoiler.

hey i found a solution to the hole problem.....
i got a n1 trunk!
but i actually found some some brass nuts and bolts, rubber washers and stuff i used for a few weeks, but sadly the skyline has been off the road for the last month because i have to get some exposure for my miata for sale
if anyones interested.....

right now the n1 trunk is on with just the nismo chibi lip,( which i think looks pretty damn rad) but sadly it needs repair. one side has been lifted up and needs to be fastened down. Any tips?

just a few pics of the car currently with an engine shot

Thanks for that info 92rs*skyline, just out of curiosity where did you buy the bolts and washers?

Hopefully you get your Skyline back on the road shortly once the Miata has been sold. Feel free to post it in the For Sale section if you like.

BTW your Skyline is looking very clean and it's definitely not overdone. I like how it doesn't have a GTR bodykit and doesn't pretend to be a GTR like so many others.
