    I have a pair that have done about 20000 km's of street driving on them. DM me if interested.
  2. samurai_gtr
    Yeah that’s exactly what’s happened. Looks like I’ll fab up new ones or see if I can repair the ones on there.

    Hey all, I'm looking for Nissan parts 75176-23U00 and 75177-23U00 which are lablled as 74802FB and 74803FB on the attached diagram. I've contacted a variety of sources including nissan japan and have been advised they are discontinued. Any ideas on other sources of Nissan parts? Any wreckers or similar that may potentially have a pair? Thanks in advance Section_24092018_946.pdf

    Sorry to revive a dead thread but I also need a pair if still available.

    Thanks @Gts-t. Did the V-Spec 2s come out with a different version, ie is there a carbon version or similar? Or is this part # carbon?

    R34 GTR front diffuser to suit Z-Tune front bar - confirm part # Hi guys, Just a quick one, just wanting to confirm that R34 GTR front diffuser (part # 75890-AA410) will fit a genuine Nismo Z-Tune front bar? Also want to know what the best non-genuine side and rear pods are? Bodyform, JSAI etc? Thanks in advance.

    R34 GTR, Genuine Nizmo Z Tuned, Worth The Money? Was just wondering what you guys thoughts are on buying a genuine nismo z-tune front bar for an R34 GTR. Is it worth the extra money to buy genuine as they're literally 4 or 5 times the price of a copy? Considering that both are FRP. Will I devalue my car by getting a copy? I already have genuine nismo z-tune fenders. The freight from Japan is just ridiculous and I'm finding it really hard to justify. The cost of the bar is 119,491 yen, which is roughly $1390, the cheapest price landed I've gotten is $2120 (surface mail) which means freight and commission is $730 which in my opinion is a little pricey. Anyone know of any cheaper options?

    - aluminium part #: R02879 - copper is part #: KA020879 Got the copper part # / quote from Streeter, perhaps it's an item that's only stocked in Japan? I also looked at the KoyoRad site and catalog and couldn't find it.

    Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy. Sorry I should have been more specific, the two radiators I'm referring to are: http://www.rhdjapan.com/koyo-type-r-copper-radiator-bnr34-zenki.html http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/prod/KOY-R020879
  10. samurai_gtr
    I can get a copper one relatively cheaply, would you prefer a copper over aluminium given the choice? They're very similar in price. Just curious to know what your preference would be and why?
  11. samurai_gtr
    Whilst I have a cooling thread active, I'm also in the market for a new radiator, looking a Koyo, there's two types though, copper and aluminium. From what I've read the aluminium would be the way to go as doesn't retain as much heat. Is this correct?
  12. samurai_gtr
    There seems to be two standard sizes for GTR coolers. For my power output would I only be requiring a 70ish mm cooler? What power figure will this take me upto? Would I lose response if I went to a bigger cooler? Any other downsides of a cooler that is 'too big'?
  13. samurai_gtr
    Still entertaining the idea of an ARC as I've always wanted one and my mechanic highly recommends them. Does anyone know the difference between the 073 and 079 models?
  14. samurai_gtr
    Thanks mate. If you could get me a quote that would be great.
  15. samurai_gtr
    The guys saying plazmaman any reasons why? Cost? Performance? Any dyno results?
  16. samurai_gtr
    Good question mate I'm not sure as the cars off the road and not really driveable at the moment. Is there an easy way to test?

    R34 GTR Intercooler choice for 350awkw Hi guys, I've damaged the bottom 2 or 3 fins of my intercooler during a fight with a gutter, was wondering what you guys thoughts are in terms of replacements, have read a lot of threads on here with varying reviews so I though I'd start my own for my specific application. I'm also aware that the stock one is quite capable of my requirements but like I said, it's damaged and needs replacing. Car has -5's and was last dynoed at 343awkw. Open to all suggestions from Aussie made, ARE, PWR, Plazmaman, to Japanese ARC, HKS, etc. My mechanic is recommending ARC or HKS. I'm leaning more towards ARC as I really haven't read anything negative about them other than they're expensive, performance wise I've read they're solid. ARC has a couple of different types but I can't read japanese so I don't know what the difference is: http://www.arc-brazing.co.jp/intercooler.html There's an 073 and an 079, the 079 being quite a bit more expensive, so I'm assuming it's bigger, would greatly appreciate if someone could help out with dimensions as it's an expensive purchase and I want to make sure I'm buying the right thing!!! I believe ARC have a wide core version as per http://www.visionr.com.au/. It would be nice if it was wide enough to hide the end tanks behind the front bar, purely for aesthetics. Also has anyone ever ordered through these guys? Been away from the scene for a long time, would I still go through Streeter or Import Monster for quotes or is there a new kid on the block?
  18. samurai_gtr
    Already ordered mate, ended up going with Streeter, as he's never done me wrong. Plus I like to support small business.
  19. samurai_gtr
    Thanks again mate. Just looking at getting a few quotes for the crossmember, any other places you guys can recommend other than Amayama for genuine nissan spare parts? Have emailed Streeter and Import Monster already.
  20. samurai_gtr
    @GTSBoy Thanks for the insight mate, much appreciated. So I already have new nismo braided brake lines as well as HKS coil overs. I was more thinking of rubber seals, hoses or anything really that perishes over time. So hypothetically if you had say $500-$1000 to spend what would your priorities be? I'm not looking to replace items such as lower control arms or anything like that, just seals, hoses, bearings etc etc. Trying to keep this relatively inexpensive as I'm saving my pennies as the car still has quite a bit of panel work to be done including a respray so there's 10Kish there. My goal is to get it re-registered but do whatever makes sense while parts are off. Sorry mate, not sure what ARBs are??? As you may have gathered I'm not the most mechanical guy lol.

    Thanks @Sick_R31 you're a legend. Sorry to bump this again but in regards to buying supporting parts to "freshen" up my suspension any ideas on what I should get? Bushes, wheel bearings etc? Like I said be nice to knock a few things off as it looks like everything has to come off.
  22. samurai_gtr
    Thanks heaps guys I really appreciate it. I think I'll just buy a new one from Amayama. There's no photo on the Amayama site and I can't find a diagram or similar of the part # confirming that is the correct part number (despite the description). I just really want to be sure that this is the correct part # before shelling out over a grand. As there's major labor involved in replacing this, are there other things that should be done at the same time, keeping mind that the car's getting close to 20 years old now. Wheel bearings, bushes etc??? Thought I might kill a few birds with one stone. I also forgot to mention that the cars been off the road for about 6 years due to me moving interstate and not having the money at the time to fix it so it really needs a mini restoration. Low kms though lol.

    R34 GTR Crossmember/Cradle required + questions Hi guys, I've got an R34 GTR, my mechanic has advised that I have a bent front crossmember/subframe after a small incident with a gutter. I've spoken to a lot of wreckers and no one has one. I have however found an R33 GTR front(engine) crossmember/subframe and was wondering if that would fit? Alternatively I'm sure someone would be able to straighten it, can anyone recommend anywhere in Melbourne that could possibly do this? Also any idea on genuine nissan part no as I'd like to get a quote on a new genuine item. Thanks in advance.
  24. samurai_gtr
    Hey mate, have you still got the subframe? will take off your hands immediately.
  25. samurai_gtr
    Hey mate, Sorry I know this is an old thread but I'm going to ask anyway. I need a set of BNR34 mud guards / plastic wheel inners, you don't happen to have a pair available?
