Hey, for some reason my boot cant seem to "pop" open from the latch anymore,

if someone is at the back lifting the boot, and someone pulls the leaver, it opens, but i use to be able to pull the latch and walk around the back and lift it up,

for some reason i dunno why it just doenst seem to pop high enough, and just keeps re locking itself,

could my gas struts be to old to support the weight?

is there any way to adjust these

cheers

Had the same problem with mine. The latch on the R34s tend to play up, another member had the same issue as you, and I advised him to play around with the catcher inside the latch mechanism see how you go, hope that helps...

hmm not that dan, as after i tried liek 7 or more times to open it, i stopped shutting the door lol

although when my frined was over the toehr day, i tried showing him the problem and it worked 5 times in a row :domokun:

so it might also be the angle i park ont eh drive way?

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
