Hey guys,

I've been really wanting to de-bagde my 34 for a while now. Just wanting to know if anyone has done this, and the best way of doing it?

Also just want to confirm both the nissan and the skyline badges are put on with double sided tape on all 34 gt-t's? No actual lettering has any holes behind them?

Dunno about sedans, but coupe the Nissan and skyline badges are taped.

My old R34 had only the Nissan Badge at the back when I bought it, looked ok but always thought something was missing so I bought the nissan badging and looked much better.

But I must say, a debadged sedan looks very clean indeed

search the forum, most guys on here melt the glue by using a heat gun or hairdryer, and some fishing wire to pry the badge off. Then some cut and polish to remove any evidence of the badging

Previous owner didnt fully debadge the car..

But he just removed the 25GT badge on the back and replaced it with a NISMO one.

Looks clean ..

Was thinking of shaving the boot lid and doors, and removing the badges aswell.

Lemme' know how it goes.

Hey man, i've just done the same thing with my R34. Yes it is just stuck on. No hidden holes to worry about.

Here's a picture.

I'm still contemplating removing the Nissan badge but meh, i'll decide that later.

I want to remove my 25gt badge, but I was getting told that 'oh you know the paint will be faded or there will be a imprint' which kind of scared me. But looking at these cars it looks really clean, can you do it without a hair dryer and remove whatever is left with wax and grease remove?

ye mine had a nissan imprint from beneath it, just needed a good clean and it was all good.

use a heat gun, or a hairdryer to heat the spot up.

then get some hot water and pour it on the spot.(if you cant use a hairdryer, make sure you do this instead)

use some fishing line to work the glue.

a bit of bug and tar remover to remove the excess and its done.

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
