Uhmm...better that you have gotten it from Cali. The costs of having those things shipped to Hawaii is going to kill you. Also, there are few shops here on the islands that specialize in those things.

Not many specialty parts are stocked here either. Most will have to be ordered from the mainland. More than likely you will be doing your own internet shopping to bring parts into Hawaii. Sorry to say.

yeah you are right, but at the same time even in cali, the shop were overpriced and best bet was to order parts.. but probably ordering parts to HI is gonna be a little more expensive.. but anyways .. i had to have my car with me

Unfortunately, nope on my end. I have the HKS versions.

StinkyTuna · 08-05-2011, 03:34 PM

Just wondering where all the tuner shops are around oahu? anyone know?

XLR8SN · 08-05-2011, 04:31 PM

Honestly...there are not many that are "recommended" per se. I have used Sonics and they (Seth) have been good, I have heard that Munkeywurks (did I spell that right?) is supposed to be good as well.

Which Nismo color are you? I have seen only 2 greys, and 1 white.

StinkyTuna · 08-05-2011, 06:01 PM

i own the white one.

BajaZ · 08-05-2011, 06:13 PM

well.. i guess i have to it myself and YouTube .. and see how it turns out ..

There was a pretty detailed DIY here:

It also goes into removing the front bumper.

Shouldnt be too too bad. Just need lots of space to place things out I would guess.

StinkyTuna · 08-05-2011, 07:47 PM

BTW...if any of you guys know anyone who would be interested in buying BNIB Advan RGD's...let me know. Got a set here sitting in my office. Stupid boxes taking up too much space.
