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. :(

      RB20 and 25 NEO differences

      I had no transmission at all so I managed to find a big box manual gearbox from an R34 GTT for an insanely good price in EU. I converted it to push type which cost more than the transmission almost, with parts from Amayama! These engines are very strong and can put out decent power with a properly sized turbo. You can save on money from parts like pistons and rods, and invest those in the transmission and other parts. I suggest you join the RB20 Enthusiasts facebook group, plenty of info and almost daily posts there about 20DE/DET/Neo+T builds. (I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by mentioning third party platforms, just trying to help the buddy out)

      Yeah, having tried all of those methods including BBQ+recipro/hacksaw, I ended up buying a bush press kit under $150 that works well, like this: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355967727167?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-154756-20017-0&ssspo=sfmmuhxgqhm&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=dJvnaZ11TB-&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It basically has a range of pushers and cups with threaded rods between to press out a range of large bushes. The problem with any sawing solution is minimising damage to the subframe side, although it probably needs a quick sand afterwards no matter what solution you try due to damage
