yeah its tricky to tell without the falt edge hey. i was surprised cos it didnt even look convex but it was.

all you have to do is get the actual mirror assembly out (the plastic bit with th glass in, not the housing) and just take it to your local glass shop, drop it off and give them $20 half an hour later and refit.

not sure about the scratched windows, but i'm sure they can do something, just ask and see what they can come up with.

hey steve,

yes WA regs require a high mount stoplight be fitted if the car was manufactured after June 1989 (i think). You dont always have to put one in, as alot of cars already have them on (a mates oct rx7 had one built into the tailgate).

if you need to put one in, just goto bigw or kmart/supercheap etc, buy a nice slimone that can mount to your inner windscreen. mount it up and run the wires down through the trim and tap you brake light wires.easy!

For Tyler and PHATR32, DRIFTT knows more than me but i'll put up what i know you need

*you NEED a restrictor in the filler neck (LRP still sold here)

*you may/may not have to change front belts (look for the label as mentioned earlier)

*you will have to change rear belts (if you have them/are going to keep them) they are most probably going to be just lap belts, requires lap-sash (goes across your chest)

*you may not have to change your *drivers side* mirror, depending on whether it is convex or flat (convex=must change) passenger side can remain convex.

*you MUST fit side intrusion bars if not fitted from factory - some 89 models have them factory, but i think most don't? (Skylines def don't)

*you need to securely attach a tyre placard to the vehicle (door jamb or under bonnet usually) and also an "unleaded fuel only" sticker somewhere near the filler.

---EDIT---

*you must fit child restraint anchor points if the car is capable of carrying a baby capsule (pretty sure 2 seaters arent allowed to, so you dont have to fit them) Most skylines have them done through the rear parcel shelf.

*you'll also need a high mount stoplight if your car doesnt have one. If theres one in the spoiler , upper tailgate, or inner windscreen that will suffice, otherwise you'll have to mount one (easy) see earlier post

i know i'm forgetting some things, and this is only from personal experience...

Phat if you want to buy tyre placards, go and see Paul at Autoworx in Wangara, he's got them pre printed ready to stick on. Or you can just make them yourself - get someone on here to give you the figures on it (i havn't got one sorry) then make one up in word, photshop whatever, print it out, and contact it onto the car if you cant find another way to stick it on.

cheers for that blacky.

Just a few quetions for anyone in the know,

Q1:with the child restraint attachments, does each rear seat need it's own attachment or do you just need one for the one seat?

Q2: the a/c controls in my r32 have been moved to the dash in front of the passenger seat, does anyone know if this would need to be moved back to stock position?

Bought some r32 anti-intrusion bars on friday. Was $130 for both (the car is a two door), which includes the actual bars and the brackets that weld to either end. Very good buy, if i get it ready for welding myself, should have intrusion bars installed for $250 max. Sweet!

You'll need them for both seats

Holes are already there but need to be drilled through the parcel shelf.

I also used a couple of spacers to raise them enough to clear the original speaker

covers.Make sure you buy the "late model"? restraints that have a provision for

a clip.When you go to buy them there is 2 types.

As for the a/c as long as the engineer signs off on your car with them there you should be fine.

Hope that helps

    • They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.
    • Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....
    • Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)
    • Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?
    • Hello, I am looking to replace my two rear drive shafts in my R34 N/A Skyline but I'm finding conflicting information. Do S13/S14/S15 or R32 NA/ R33 NA fit? https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-rear-drive-shaft-l-h-nissan-silvia-s13-s14-s15-3x2-type?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqY7EwDaYCUoUU3mxxZ_qrUXkVVHiV4MIN7ozoar6scjnEiekv- would this fit?
