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.

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
