So me and a friend ordered some parts from a place in China and today 2 of the 3 parcels arrived. I got 2 extended oil sumps for engine and a titanium Y-pipe. The most fun parts was off course in the big box that had to go another route because of size. It will be here on monday and i will post pictures. In that box should be another y-pipe (changing out my HKS resonated) a titanium catback, a set of titanium intake pipes, a set of titanium intercooler pipes, 2 sump extensions for tranny, an intercooler and some sets of titanium GT-R wheel bolts.

Have also ordered some carbon parts at another place and hopefully within a couple of weeks will have a very aggresive front on our hands and also a very nice rear end with diffuser.

Here are some pics of parts arriving today

good deal........... which website did you buy it from?  I have seem a few of them, but never too sure about sending money over to China without having any real way of tracking it.....  How is the quality of the parts?

[92ttz]

The quality looks good in my unexperienced eyes., but i guess the real test is when the parts will be installed.  I guess there are some people here that can chime in on quality of the welds. To me it looks like 95% perfect which is good enough for me considering the price.

Did you get these from KC Racing? My only issue from 'my untrained' eye is that the GTR logo embossed into the oil pan look a little off. Too much spacing between the letters GT and R.

[92ttz]

No, i didnt get it from KC racing, i buy straight from factory. I see what u mean by the letters on the pan and i agree. Might have to ask them to fix it if i buy some more's.

And a complete set of intake/intercooler piping in Titanium. I did not want the pink couplers so thankfully i managed to get blue. There was a bunch of them though. Not sure it is the right amount. I got 14 which seem a bit to much. 12 of them look similar 2 is different.

Stuff looks pretty good...  I see what you all mean about the lettering.  

92ttz - your perception is similar to mine - quality for the most part looks pretty good.

[92ttz]

There is a couple of issues. The box i got today was huge like 5by2by1 feet and weighed around 27 kg and it was single layer cardboard (shipped by Fedex) and it had gotten a beating. Thankfully most of the parts inside where all pretty good wrapped up, the exception being couplers and clamps that were all over the place.  The intake/intercooler piping has a lot of what looks like spatter inside and is kind of dirty/dusty. They need a good inside cleaning and maybe some finishing touches. Also ordered some titanium wheel nuts that showed up without the GT-R engraved that i expected. I have taken the issues up with the factory and hopefully i get some satisfactory answers tomorrow. I will also ask them to do something about the lettering on the pans. Not sure it helps though.

Thanks for posting your pics, I also bought something in China and I'm waiting on them right now so it's comforting to see you're getting some quality parts. The problem with the dirty finish on the inside worries me a bit though. In all the shots I've seen they look really good on the outside but the cost cutting and poor quality control means the insides probably aren't as good as the outside. This is especially important on the intakes where poor design and welds can affect your MAF readings. Perhaps you can take some pictures of the inside for us to see?

Just a small thought on the tranny pan. I hope you´re not installing a cooler to those two connectors that are installed in the pan? That would mean the oil would just go in through one of them and out the other, without really going through the box. What you need to do is replace one of the connectors with a thermostat and connect one of the oil lines to the other one. Then you install the other oil line to the hole where you fill the oil into the box, on the front, above/between the propshafts. I hope you understand how I mean?

I took one picture earlier and this is one of the better pipes.

I was looking at this stuff aswell, how long did delivery take?

[92ttz]

Took about 4 weeks from money was received until i got it. Was shipped with Fedex though. Shipping was about a week.
