the thing on ur bumper is a like a parking antenna, it pops up to let u gauge where ur bumper is when parking. few imports came with them as an option in Japan. First time i've seen one on a 34 though. As for the attachments on the fender, at a guess they might be a parker light of some sort...japanese rice maybe :wave:

I concur with n15mo on the parking guide/antenna thing. I have only seen that once before on a 34. I don't have it on mine tho. I don't have a clue to those other attachments on your fenders.

You don't have xenons either so thats one less thing to have changed come compliance time.

I think it could be headlight wash's, lots of the newer cars out here have em.. and considering i've never heard of a gts-4 sedan b4 it could possibly be.

I may stand to be corrected on the 'non-xenon' lights thing (once it lands here) but of all the 34 light assemblies I've seen with that parker design have been the normal old halogen setup.

a xenon headlight assembly is different as in each bulb i.e. high, driving, parker is en-cased/enclosed from each other, if that makes any sense to you.

In the end I can tell just by looking at them

Here's a pic of my car (still waiting for lip spoiler) with the aerial up, funny cos i had always thought it was an aerial for the sat/nav set up that my car has. Looks cool at night as there is a blue light on top which illuminates when you turn your lights on.

I believe that they are factory style driving lights on the bumper. Can anyone confirm this?

Note my car has Xenon headlights with auto setting (turn on by themselves at night).

I disagree, they look like Xenons to me, but i too can be wrong.

Remove Xenon b4 taking car to compliance, then refit them after compliance, as they are a much better headlight. :(

      Possible swap on R34 RB20DE NEO?

      By Kapr · Posted

      EDIT: Just a little info what my tranny is "doing" :   For the long time the trans do this "bad" sound:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qs_iTXgDt40 It is literally the same sound and same symptoms(when i push the clutch it quites down) So is it really the shaft bearing?   Also:  i found this on forums: The RB20 and SR20 boxes are nearly indentical inside (rb20 has longer mainshaft)and suffer badly from bearing and selector failures when driven hard   The bearing is true and selector failure kinda too...it is "harder" to get into gears specialy when i drive a little bit hard...

      See, that button sounds like perfection Duncan! My eyes really don't like light shining at them from a dash when I'm driving. Being part red colourblind, I've found for most cars that I can change colours on, I set everything to red, so my eyes see the elast amount of colour! I miss normal gauges in cars

      bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.

      Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 🙂  I know what it looks like
