holes in front bar...


Recommended Posts

ive noticed that on gt-r's the vspec's dont have these 'speed holes'.. but normal gt-r's do... i would have thought it would be the other way around if anything:)

hhmmm "speeeeed holes hey"???

Speed Holes.. how funny is that..

I thought the 2 holes were called N1 bumper inserts.

Isn't there an N1 version in all the GTR's

or did they just do that in the R34 and all the other GTR owners saw them and thought "sweet" I'll take 2 of those there speeeed holes..

I'm going home to take to my bonnet with a axe... I'm a get me some of them there speeed holes..

GTST there was an n1 in all models of the gtr, boo5t the cars you see that arent n1 with this they have been fitted later or the front bar has been replaced thats probs why you see more run of the mill R's with them these cars are more likely to have a new front bar.

officially they are called N1 front bar slots. i wouldn't mind getting those as a later addition to my car... they arent too much either. UAS quotes $100 for the fibreglass ones for an R32, which is cheap.... oh and of course fitting, dunno how much for that though... hehehe speed holes... from the simpsons! :)

from my understanding, R33 Series 3 GTR's have these in the bars as standard, of course N1 GTR's have them as well

Series 1 and Series 2 R33 GTR's don't have them (unless they are aftermarket / add on)

not sure on R32's or R34's.. but yeah they flow a little more air into the top of the intercooler,

i guess they may even increase flow into oil coolers as well depending on where they are fitted, but it is probably too low down for that..

Yeah on the r32 gtr they are from the N1 kit. Ive got em for my GTst which has original GTR bar, theyr bout 350 each side from nissan, but fortuantely I got em original for 250 together. They go with the N1 lip on the bonnet, N1 rear pod on side skirt, and the lip on the boot lid under the spoiler.

Mainly purley a look thing

Regards

Will

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
