Hey guys,

Getting a new rear wheel bearing for the R34. It seems no one has done this on these forums and written about it.

Can any one advise on if the bearings listed on ebay will also fit a R34? I will post the link.

I have already ordered from Victoria and fingers crossed it will work.

Can anyone confirm?

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/NISSAN-SKYLINE-SILV...rts_Accessories

The seller is 99% sure it will fit and tells me the shaft size, does anyone know the shaft size for GTT rear wheel?

Its meant to look like this

Nissan are useless. Went from quotes between two places from $255 and $280 they would match it at the other place however.

Rockdale Nissan would not supply a product code and was anoying the shit out of me, however with a VIN Artarmon will match it, Thank god!

Anyway thanks to all who helped, Bearings aftermarket dont exist for the R34!

Cheers

Nathaniel

Got the Part number from nissan today (had to pay $255 to get it.. i.e buy the part before they would supply a code - have to love Nissan)

The part number supplied was correct, however a friend has installed it on his R34 and the bearing is the wrong size. He made a fitting to fit within it.

Looks like a giant game of shambles.. I am not looking forward to fitting it.

Thanks again for the help Kotter

is 255 for both sides of the rear or just one?

jebus...

also why are you replacing them? i've never heard of the wheel bearings go in any skiz to date, unless they were smashed.

On a side note, make sure you correctly fit them. Buggered wheel bearings = wheel comes off

Just one.. Ball bearing in a housing rip off! Cant drive it like this tho!

Yeah they are buggered as atm .. So will have to put them in correctly.

I hit a curb, drive with bad camber and often use the handbrake.. this is why.

had a front left go in my gtst. It's not uncommon. The front right in my s13 sounds like it isn't too healthy either.

They will all let go eventually. Add extra load (track work, big offset) and it will be sooner rather than later.

Seriously though. All the bearings in the car will most likely be manufactured by NSK. And all of their bearings have a number stamped on them. Take that number to any bearing supplier and they will be able to get the right one.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
