thinking about installing some GTR style bumper vents, help with intercooler and auto cooler. Found these ones, half the price of just-jap and looks better quality.

Anyone fitted R32 or 33 vents to S2s before ? how do they line up with the bumper curve ?

These guys look like thet make their own fibreglass bumper kits etc, nice if we could get them to pump out some DAYZ kits.

as a good deal of my intercooler is flush up against my bar reo, the S2 bumpers werent designed for good FMIC flow.

As you can see i have already cut some bumper out below the number plate to help airflow.

G`Day simon have you looked at putting your number plate on some bracket`s & have it sit in the middle then you have it open ???,may be a bit better than cutting hole`s in front bar&reo ,iam now getting bit`s sorted to have front bar cleaned up & put some mesh to protect intercooler,i have sticky number plate.i have just found some S/S pipe for washer bottle + i have to sortout mounting for oil cooler as the washer bottle will act as air deflector & having intercooling pipework modified,did you cut much out of REO ??to fit intercooler ???.Good luck dude,cheer`s chuckie

Gday, I want to keep the factory number plate bracket, the problem is behind the reo, even removing all the number plate and backing will still not get air to behind reo. Not an immense problem, just seeing if others had done anything. I had to cut about an inch out of the reo bar I think to make it fit, reprayed it, looks factory.

Anyway, Unique Autosports here in Sydney sell them for $150 a pair, if that helps.

Just go to the Parts Catalogue section, then GT-R parts, then you'll see them listed as N1 R32 GT-R front bar slots.

Yeah, I noticed that price after I'd already posted, Chook. I was too tired to change my post by that time.

I'd say go with JSAI - for that price, you can afford to break a pair doing the install and still come out only $4 behind!

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      By BaronOBeefdip · Posted

      Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.

      Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?

      Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card style AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had no flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).

      So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By tsuokun · Posted

      Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.
