Hey all,

Probably a simple one for you guys.. just wanted to know what's the easiest way to go about removing the front bar for a R34 GTT. I've seen the step by step article for the R33 and it looks different... but then i haven't tried so I don't know.

Can someone give me some pointers?

Cheers all,

Howie

Hey Howie,

Undo the splash guard under neath the front bar if there is one there and then there are two bolt on either side of the front bar in the guards.

One is where the guard meets the front bar and the other is about half way in between the first bolt and the headlight youy will have to feel with your hand if it is even there. If the bar has been taken off before it will most likely not be there as most people dont bother puttin gthe second bolt back.

I think that is it, if you have any issues let me knoe and i can probably come and give you a hand.

Cheers

Shaun

I'm trying to remove my front bar at the moment and I can feel there's in between the guard and headlights. It's pretty tight for me to squeeze my hand in there to undo it.. any easier method I should take? Do i need to remove the splash guard completely?

Hey ducki, you can just see it here where i removed the bar.

I found it easier to remove the inner plastic guard, then full right lock it to remove the two drivers side bolts.. then full left lock to remove the two passenger side bolts. I used a long screw driver with an extension to help.

Also there's two plastic clips behind the numberplate and two screws on the grill you need to remove.

All the best.. and thanks to Evil34 for putting me on the right track in the first place mate.. here's what i ended up doing over the weekend.. fixing up an east bear lip (had to make a fiberglass mould from the bumper hence why it had to come off).

yeah.. hehe managed to removed my bar.. today too...

had to really shove my hands under the bumper to get the 2 last one out.

I didn't need to remove anything behind the no. plate.. think its different for me since its the standard bar but also thanks to Evil34 otherwise I wouldn't have known the bolts in the guards existed.

    • My fob has never worked, I once attempted to follow the procedure to re-key it, (I have other fobs for the car alarm thing in there). I actually have three of them. Do aftermarket alarms take over the pairing mechanism for central locking? Or do they piggyback off it? I suppose it depends on the system, right? I have four sets of keys/keyfobs. One definitely works, one I think works, one definitely doesn't work, and I have the OEM one that has never worked :p. Is this fixable/workable/whatever? I mean I know it's beyond "just clean it" but how *do* they get synced up?
    • It's actually a really weird comparison... the MX5 is on another level and I kinda question this comparison at all. It'd be closer to compare it to a GTI/Golf/Hatch anything that kicks around. NC MX5 with a turbo has the right to go up with and beat the FD RX7 or 180SX or any other JDM hero car. That's the comparison that would really ruffle feathers.
    • @MBS206 you need more shed in your life... What sort of car is your mates race car?  Hopefully he returns the favour when you're ready to get cracking on yours! None of my mates are into cars so I don't have to worry about that as a distraction thankfully.  I have enough other distractions so I don't need that one too!  Between working 6 days a week (5 1/2 really so 55 hours or so per week), both kids have basketball almost every week night (including Friday night in Melbourne - 2 hours away), my daughter plays netball as well, my sons footy has started now and I coach his under 14's side as well as I'm on the Footy club committee this year, I ride motorbikes every spare Sunday I can find, plus trying to be some sort of a husband.  Life is a busy little exercise at the moment!  I wish there were 8 or 9 days in a week sometimes!
    • Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
    • Which one did you buy? I have always wanted a decent inspection camera but have been unable to tell whether something is cheap junk or cheap junk chunk sold at just a bigger markup
