Hi! i just installed a new front bumper.

my R34 is stock at the front and it has a Diffuser is 3 parts.

Left, Center and Right

The new bumper doesn't extend back like the original therefore i can't bolt the front bumper to the diffuser on the bottom.

i want to ask. DO I NEED THE DIFFUSER?

Although i drive a skyline, i don't drive fast. 100km/s is proberly max on freeway.

Will my car be affected alot if i take them off?

Sorry if i am asking stupid questions but im a newbie to DIY modding cars. Still learning

I will post pictures tonight to get the image clear to people.

Any help will be very helpful

i had that same problem.. mine started flapping around to at around 40-70km/hr lol took both sides off and kept the centre on

what bar did you get?? *curiousity*

Hi! if you took off the sides, doesnt that mean that water and other stuff can hit your bar. isnt the 2 side a guard under the wheel?

I bought a GTR copy for the GTT. the lip is part of the bumper instead of being 2 parts.

yeh its the 2 under the wheel.. only the front of it though. and yes.. i have a ztune gtr copy bar to but the lip is removable :laugh:..

water is always going to ''hit'' your bar? .. im guessing water is harmless lol

and when in ''drive'' the wheels are moving anti-clockwise rotation, thus flicking debri (stuff) up to the back of the wheel arc and top

my 2c

    • Yeah. air pressure leakdown test is where I would be headed next here, using one's ears to determine whether it's the valves or bores/rings leaking...
    • More likely you didn't bed the rings in correctly and have glazed the bores. Running with misfires on a fresh build is somewhat of a no-no. Surely no-one "smoke tests" the combustion chamber? That's what a leakdown test is for. Smoke testing is, um, a bit of a wank at best, and only really useful for external pipework.  
    • Well, obviously that kit is not a relocation kit or anything other than just the original isolators and the like. I would suggest that it should be a matter of just bending up some flat bar to build a mount over the top of some other diff, with the flat bar held to the back of the diff by the rear hat bolts. A little welding, a little thinking about how to secure the front of this structure, maybe some different hoses in case you can't get it in just the right place.
    • Pay diff/trans workshop to do this.   Nope. Z32 turbo ran R230 with 6 bolt GTR style axles. All other Z32 were R200. Basically same same as other R32 stuff. All were a viscous waste of space.
    • So, I'm not a diff swapsies specialist, but I am pretty sure the 300zx ran an R220 not and R200 like the C34 Stagea, so I think it is of no use to you. As you said, all you need to do is get the centre swapped in the diff you have, which might be best done by a diff specialist. The current centre is probably desirable to someone to track so an easy path might be to swap your mechanical centre for someone with a standard centre (which is a viscous LSD, and almost certainly won't have any limited left). The only thing you have to watch swapping R200 internals between diffs is that the number of splines on your car's stub axles has to match the donor car, or you need the centre+stub axles and make sure they have the same number and pattern of bolt holes as your rear axles.  You swap your current ratio onto the new centre so you don't have to worry about matching the front. Alternatively, centres like the Nismo pro are much gentler (and have adjustable "tightness") so you could buy on of those from somewhere like Jesse Streeter or Nengun (noting it may cost you 1234% extra in tariffs by the time it lands)
