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

You're right, i bollocks it up. Ignore previous post.

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.

      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

      @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?

      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
