Does anyone know how to adjust bonnets

I have searched and everyone says that the only adjustment is at the latch and the stops

I have tried this to no avail. (even replaced the stops with new one's from Nissan.)

The bonnet sees to be shifted to one side right from the hinges (at the windscreen) i.e the gap on

one side is too big all the way down to the bottom, and so the other side is almost touching the guard all the way down.

Can you loosen the hinge bolts and push the whole bonnet to one side?

loosen the top bolt one side and the bottom bolt the other side then just give it a shove to the die you want it to go to. then a pull as you do the other side.

Thanks mate

Did it yesterday and very pleased

Don't know why I waited so long!

      R34 GT-R Positive Battery Cable Routing

      By Beanie · Posted

      Hi there, after a quick google search I found this topic as I am also relocating the battery to the boot of my 1998 GTT. I was just wondering how you got on with installing the re-routing and specifically the installing of the harness protectors? How do they attach? Are they just a simple "click-in" affair, or do they attach with bolts? Does the GTT have all the necessary fixing holes for them, for example, where they locate on the chassis? Any help you can provide would greatly appreciated.

      R34 squeaking sound from passenger front area

      Stock less likely to carry one like that than urethane, but still can, especially if the bolts are not as tight as they should be. If it's making that much noise you should be able to use a hose as a stethoscope> stick one end in your ear, crouch down and wave it around the various possible noise makers and get someone to lift the front end at the guard lip.

      Broken actuator rod. Could be one of a couple of them broken. Or, it's locked and the central locking actuator is broken/stuck or the actuator rods between it, the lock and the key barrel are jammed or broken similarly. You'll probably need a locksmith/mechanic who is experienced with using slim tools to reach down next to the window glass to manipulate the mechanism. That's assuming that it is not so severely jammed/broken that nothing useful will move.
