R34 Lip


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I know this is a REALLY bad photo but there is something about this lip I really like. I don't have a better photo unfortunately (It isnt mine or anyone I know).

I've been looking everywhere and it seems the only name of a lip I can find is the east bear stuff, which this is not.

Anyways, please give it a shot if you think you might know what it is.

Thanks for your time in advance.

ps: If you know where in brisbane this could be purchased that would be awesome.

I saw someone elses photo here and quickly photoshoped it to suit

I think someone said 'east bear aero kit' but the front spoiler on the blue photo is just the factory front (not factory aero/nismo kit).

If someone could confirm, it would be highly appreciated.

Well, technically, it's not the East Bear lip.... Because the East Bear one has the bottom diffuser as well:

And Viva Garage lip is a copy of East Bear:

So from the looks of it, it just looks like there's another version of the East Bear lip (not made by East Bear) but without the bottom diffuser OR it is an East Bear/style lip but has been chopped.

Hey mate

Thanks for your reply.

It really does look like a 'chopped' version of that east bear lip. I looked everywhere and can't find it!!!

The first photo - The owner said 'Paid a fella $200 bucks to get it and put it on for me'. So they must be off the self like that somewhere...

Any further knowledge or help would be highly appreciated it - thanks guys

But then from another look.... It looks like a GTR lip, as the vents are much higher than the East Bear one.

Maybe it's a GTR lip that's been modify to fit the stock GTT bar? :P

Actually, another thought, it is the East Bear lip, but it's not the first one I posted that was MADE for GTT stock bar.

But it's the East Bear lip that's made for the East Bear kit:

Because the East Bear lip that's made for the East Bear kit is made up of 2 separate components, the lip and diffuser, it's detachable.

So how did that guy manage to get it onto a standard front so nicely.

So you reckon that one only fits the east bear spoiler?

How did you find this information I've been searching for hours!!! My car words/terminology must be heavily lacking :P

Thanks heaps though Charles - You have been a massive help.

Actually, this is f**king around with my head lol, just had another look at the pic, it definitely looks like the East Bear lip that's made for the stock GTT bar but with the diffuser chopped. Not sure whether another workshop has ripped it off and made it without the diffuser or it has just been chopped.

But I found this dodgy version of it on yahoo auctions, it made me lol haha:

Hey mate

You wouldn't know a good place to purchase these from (locally to australia).

I checked other threads and powerplay and viva are popular names but I couldn't find this on either of them.

I sent an email to carmate.com but their website didn't display this lip.

Cheers

Here's a link to Viva Garage's site with the lip:

All I can say is good luck fitting them tho lol.. Heard lots of bad feedbacks...

At the end of the day, you get what you paid for. I bought an East Bear bonnet lip in plastic, AMAZING fitment :)

    • Time for millspec wiring, MoTec electronics package, Bosch Motorsport ABS, let's goooooooo!!!   Maybe as @MBS206 suggested, just swap out those stupid blue relays near the ECU plug.  
    • My only regret with the NC MX5 was no space for a spare, even a space saver doesn't fit in I do have a couple of those puncture repair spray cans, but if I get a large puncture, or sidewall damage, I'm screwed until a tilt tray turns up I'm thinking I might get one of those 4WD style of puncture repair kits that have that rope stuff and glue, whilst it will kill any hope of saving a tyre, it might help getting me out from some backwoods road far enough to find a actual tyre shop if the first can of tyre fix doesn't work I'm keen to see how your new toy pans out Uncle Duncan, I'll be moving to the Highlands next year, you'll need to shout out if your heading to Wakefield, whilst I've lost my balls for happy laps, I still love watching those that can
    • Yeah not sure what the warranty was, but it will be years outside it.  I've shot Link a message, will see what happens, I'm told their support is good. It is a plug in, so its a Link board in a factory case, very easy to access both sides of the circuit board by removing the top or bottom cover. To be fair the the Link, although I've checked to the factory connections and wiring specs, as we learned with Neil's car in the early days not all ECUs source power the same way. He'd been running a factory ECU with no trouble for years, but when we plugged a PowerFC in it wouldn't start up, just kept cycling power on and off. We worked out that the car was missing one of the 10a fuses "Electronic Parts", and to Neil's knowledge it had never been there. Turns out the ECU pulled its main power from that source not the same place the factory ECU did.  Point being....there are multiple battery and ECCS power sources in the factory ECU, and multiple grounds as well....not telling from the outside exactly what the Link uses (and doesn't use)
    • Now, thanks to sonicii, onto the uneven floor from a tyre sticking 100mm into the boot space. I looked into options to raise the floor to the level of the tyre, and ended up going Extruded Polystyrene (XPS). EPS is what I normally think of as polystyrene, the annoying tiny balls that get glued into a flat sheet but XPS is quite different, much firmer and doesn't crumble if you touch it with anything. I also looked at things like heavy duty seating foam but XPS seemed like the right way. I picked up 3x 1200x600x50 sheets for $40ea. Initially I was looking for 100mm sheets because I needed to make up a 100mm gap, but as it turned out 50mm was available, much easier to work with and made it simple to store the tools I used a simple 15cm foam cutter to make the shapes. With some practice I was able to make reasonably clean cuts but I don't think Clark Rubber are going to be calling me to offer a job. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/405092315205?var=675175481574 First layer in place, 3 dimensions are tricky! Second layer in place, bringing it to level with the top of the spare Cutouts in the top layer for the tools With floor back in place, nice and flat with 100mm stolen but no real impact on usability
    • Sounds like a good idea to me moh
