Gen 5 Body Variations Question

[StacytheBloke]

I have a Gen 5 GTR non 4ws, i would like a new passenger side front wing for the car (well from a breakers anyway) however i am unsure as to the body type of the car, i am 90% sure it is a narrow body but i am unsure. Are there more than two variations? the car is a late 1992 car btw

here are some pics if it helps

thanks in advance

What a lovely gen5!

very nice indeed mate- and as the man dak says its a narrowbody, all narrowbody wings are the same as far as i know :)

Thanks all, yep TCB confirmed this and sorted me out with a wing in the right colour

The road is called morridge, its overlooking the roaches on the staffordshire derbyshire border between leek and buxton 2 minutes from the infamous 'cat and fiddle road'

cat and fiddle is lovely to drive but a death trap, particularly for bikes... but then again most of the roads around me are death traps! (its the 2nd most dangerous road in the uk)

the road in the back ground on the 1st pic is the A53 leek to buxton road... also in the top 10 most dangerous roads in the uk.. the stats are terrifying- especially 50% of the collisions involve running off the road!

20km long

Fatal/serious collisions 1998-2000 - 18

2001-03 - 16 (-11%)

Fatal and serious collision rate - 151/bn vehicle km

Most common collision type - running off road (50%)

Its all near a place called Flash (ahhh ahhh)

'Flash is a small village high in the Staffordshire Peak District. At 463m (1518ft) above sea level it is reputedly the highest village in England. As an isolated community it formerly had a reputation for being a centre for illicit activities such as **** (male chicken) fighting and counterfeiting ('Flash money').

According to some sources, the counterfeit money used to be exchanged at the nearby Three Shires Head (where Staffordshire, Cheshire and Derbyshire meet) on Axe Edge Moor.

it is an interesting place.... proper 'deliverance stuff'

I can almost hear the banjos. Interesting stuff. And it`s unusual for people to be aware of their local history/knowledge - (Cue everyone coming on with theirs ) Particularly useful knowing the dangers of your local roads. It should be made mandatory. We had another double death over here recently. Chap ran out of road in a CRX i think it was. :(

Glad you got the wing sorted.

Thought I recognised that road!

The A537 (can n fiddle) was one of my regular haunts years ago, before the newer speed restrictions, and it getting very crowded.

Great roads round there!

Glad the wing is sorted- great getting the right colour too :)
