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!

      Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics

      Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
