cheers for the quik reply mate..

im not 100 percent sure, the FMIC is infront of the radiator, about 20 centermeters or so infront of the radiator..

it doesnt look like a massive cut job,

how would i go about getting a new reo bar if needed?

thanks.

cheers..

the current intercooler i got on in greddy, a kit, not made specially for r33 skyline..

if i was to sell that and buy a intercooler made for r33, then somehow figure how to cover up the chassis.. good idea?

im kinda trippin cos i dont want to get defected. want to keep my mind at peace.

if you read through a few pages back i mentioned what was legal which came straight out of the inspectors mouth.

front mounts will pass if the reo hasn't been cut, they're not fussed about sheet metal bit as long as its neatly cut and rust proofed. (and even most of the time trimmed reo bars will pas as long as they aren't cut straight down the middle sorta thing)

sheet metal bit is the part of your car that has been cut. However, if the cut was made too low and in to the actual chassis (aka. backyard ghetto job) then your car will be blacklisted, never to be registered again until you get an engineers certificate stating it has been fixed properly.

just take a look in to the engine bay under the washer bottle and see if the pipe is coming through the hole above the flat part of the chassis rail.

cheers mate..

i had a look, and the pipe is coming from the side of the washer bottle.. just a small whole to fit that in..

and also that cross bar that holds the radiator up.. it has been cut in front of the radiator where it goes towards the front bumperbar.

it looks like i can just bolt on another cross bar thats holding up the radiator.

it doesnt look like a shonky job.

but you can get certificates if you get defectd?

yes, i believe so. Another option is to buy an FMIC core, mounted to your specified location, and take it to an exhaust shop to have the piping plumbed to suit the location of the core.

Will the stock r33 series 1 reo bar fit over a greddy fmic without modification?

What are the dimensions?

If its 600x300x76 or bigger then no, you will have to slightly trim the reo bar. Not sire for r34 but i haven't seen a single r33 with a big intercooler that didn't need it trimmed.

Yep thats the size.

Are the reo bars from skylines interchangable? Will an R33 GTR reo bar fit an R33 GTST?

my intercooler is a decent size, like its abit bigger then my radiator.. and they didnt cut the reo bar.. just abit of the radiator support..

only thing they cut on reo bar was a hole for the pipes.

The hole would be made in the shell i would think and not the reo mate

      Wanted to buy R200 longnose LSD 3.9 ratio

      By Ben_D · Posted

      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

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By Ben_D · Posted

      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

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By sonicii · Posted

      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.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      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)
