the back seats in 32s do not fold down. to get into the boot from the cabin you have to remove the rear seat, then unbolt the rear firewall, then try and reach in there/crawl in there.

Hmm I has this problem once where the key didnt seem to work after i had the car panelbeated. This was with my R33. The cable release worked ok tho. I saw this little lever in the boot near the lock were the cable is attached and thought that maybe this has soemthing to do with it. So yeah flicked that level to the other position and closed the boot. :(

The dam key still didn't work. Tried the cable release and now that didn't work :P

Well i learned what the lever did anyways.

Had to remove the whole back seat then the cover panel behind the seat to see into the boot. A nearby broom handle was the weapon of choice and i managed to flick the lever in the boot back into its oither position and get the boot open.

Anyways. I wouldn't want to just have cable only on the boot cos it might just break or something one day.

I am going to try and connect up a central locking solenoid to open the boot. Then i will have key/cable/solenoid.

yeah basically pull the bottom half of the seat up then remove the 2x 10mm bolts that hold the top half on

would be a mission to get through the firewall hole, doable though, even use a stick, you only need to hit the bootlock

I've shaved mine off, what you could do, is put in a high stop light with lockable screws(or star screws with a screwdriver that only you have)

then if the cable does brake, remove the high stop light, put your finger down and flick the lock

I'd just be worried taht someone might do that to mine if i did it,

ScreamingSkyline on this forum has done it on his, looks very nice :(

      WTB: R34 S2 Front grill (this guy is asking mental prices)

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      Looking for a S2 front grill for an R34 GT/GTT Doesn’t have to be in excellent condition as I’m looking to paint it. Would preferred if the clips were around.    The $500 this marketplace guy is asking sounds ridiculous in my opinion.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)

      Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T 1999

      For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.
