Thought I'd take some pictures of taking off my front bumper and make a Tutorial so its easier for other people to give it a shot. so here we go.

1.) Get a flat head screw driver, poke it into the gap of the front indicator (where arrow shows) and pop out the indicator.

2.) There are 5 plastic screws where the grill is, which are easy as popping them up and pulling them out.

3.) 2 screws that hold the body kit onto the fender, one is right at the edge of the bumper, and the other is in the middle which is kind of hard to get too, needa squeeze your hand under or through the cover to get too it.

4.) After those are done, you'd need to push the edges of the front bumper down to clear the little clip that holds in in the middle (Circled in blue).

5.) your bumper should slip off easy and look like picture under. (to fit back on just reverse the process)

After doing all this, looking at installing a fmic never looked any easier :D

Thanks for your time.

Just one thing that I did differently when I took our off was I took the indicator light/globe out of the holder from behind instead of putting a screw driver near the paint. (showen in step 1.)

You can the leave the whole holder assembly in the bar and then remove it if needed when the bar is off the car it is much easier and you should then avoid all possibilty of any paint damage.

You will also need to remove about a dozen bolts underneath the bar as well that hold the drip tray on and the inner gaurds on.

Other than that great write up

Man I am having serious trouble getting my hand (with spanner attached) to that screw. I'm just ripping my arm to shreds. Any special tips on an easy way to do it without losing too much blood?

Sorry about the late reply, I am hardly on the forums now due to selling my skylines awhile ago..

but to your question, you could take the cover off (Plastic surrounds around the front wheel) there's only couple plastic screws holding it in, 2 on the bottom and 2 in the guards from memory, as soon as you take that off getting to that middle screw will be and ease and you wont have to squeeze in, this takes longer to take off the front bumper and more things to put back on.

My inner plastic guard is basically stopping me from getting to the screws holding the front bar on near the tyres.

I can' t even get a finger through let alone a screw driver. Any tips for 34 GTR or is it different to GTT as far as removal technique?

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
