Hey,

A while ago my boot lid open leaver in the car stopped working.. the boot still opens with the key, and when open. when leaver is pulled, the latch still moves and functions corretly...

Im assuming the gas struts might be worn out, which is causing the weight of the boot to cause it to stop opening but its getting annoying..

any ideas??

cheers

may be the weight of wing.. do you have wing on your boot?

i have similar problem

when i open the boot with lever next to the driver seat and got out of car and close the door, the boot lock itself...

when you open the boot it doesnt pop up because weight of wing. one i detached the wing and tried, the boot pops up..

i was thinking buy a new strong gas strut and reinstall them but i thought it is useless... anyway.. all im doing is open up the boot

with lever and open the boot before i close the front door... so may be it is very funny if someone look at me lol

close the front door and same time i ran to the side of car and grap a wing and open up the boot..

but if your lever doesnt work... maybe the connection between lever to boot opener...

cheers

i have the same problem as well.. one person has to pull the latch while another lift the boot up at the same time.. otherwise use a key to open it.. never used to be like that..

i'm assuming it's worn out gas struts.. oh.. and i got a wing on it as well..

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 馃槈. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 馃槏.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 馃檹 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 馃槈. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 馃槏 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
