Derrrrrrrrr! aren't I a DuMass, I get the drift, you guys querying me putting RS badges on a HR PNV.

I bought the new badges from Jenesis before I had the PNV, the DOHC RS were going on the MR30 Hatch. I also have a set of U12 Pintara Ti Nissan badges, that I was going to put on the guards, they're black with a GOLD wreath and Nissan on the bottom.

At the end of the day, what's in a badge, the car is still a PNV.

You're the one putting a Tekamon nose on a PNV :P

I was half tempted to put Triumph badges on it... I can see a lot of similarities between the DR and what I think the next evolution of the TR series would have been like

Independant rear

Good brakes for the time

Innovative fuel injection

No steering feel

Reasonably unbreakable engine

One of the fastest cars in its class

But some nice Datsun badges will do, and a Pintara badge for the bootlid just to confuse people lol

Adam,

Other than you being one of the few on this thread that doesn't like the Iron Mask front, what's so dammed bad about putting it on a PNV.

It already has an non std RB engine, non std SAAS Enforcer front seats, non std 16 inch wheels, non std front & rear brakes, non std instrument cluster, non std transmission, non std suspension, non std diff & non std drive shaft.

How else it it so abhorrible that it has an iron mask front.

In the most part it's all nissan and from the R30 family.

Your remark about triumph badges and the like is insane to say the least. Why not go Renault badging, at least you will be staying with company product.

L24E ECU's play a very important part in our ecological status these days.  

They make VERY GOOD LANDFIL!!!!!

Jap Hot Plate tail lights are RARE, try SSS Automotive or Just Jap, or Option 1 etc, try all the importers, PARTS IMPORTERS that is.

All I suggest, I keeping my spare set, or hang on, what you got now?

You got Genuine 84/5 Aussie Tail Lights?????

Let me know if you have.

Yeah, i got a set of 84 Aussie tailights, they are on my car, i also have a single one, right hand side (I think) from a wreck. I gotta get some jap spec lights

As a matter of interest!

Plenty has been said about my intention of changing the front on my PNV, absolutely nothing has been said about the performance enhancements.

What's with the bullsh!t on changing the front?????

I guess it's cause it's a rare PNV? But,as you say,it's already been tamperd with,so to my way of thinking ,it doesn't really matter.Speaking of performance enhancements,was yours the RB25DET one? Sorry,this thread is too long to go searching back through!

Sure PNV's are rare, but only in Japan are they of value, here they're just another R30.

To some, like those on this forum thread, may think otherwise, but at the end of the day it is only rare and valuable if & when it is SOLD. As I don't intend to sell it ever, there is no rarity value and it will always be a PNV as it is marked that way and sold that way, just a modified version.

If it was to stay stockish, a L20et rebuild to L28 would be necessary for some performance and to rebuild to L28 spec, it's same price for RB and RB is modern technology.

    • What are you doing with the car? Drags, sprints, racing? A decent upgrade of dba 4000 rotors, good quality pads (endless, project mu, intima are all I have used), quality fluid and braided lines. All have held up to multiple big track days and street duties. No need for big fancy kits as some also require significant energy to come upto operating temp. Look at 350z caliper and rotor upgrade too.  @Dose Pipe Sutututu comment on them and did a good write up.
    • I've driven that one and it's a great deal and drives nice. The owner definitely treats it right on track. You would have gotten it for what you paid for this one too.   Keen to see what you do to this one. 
    • I have a question with regards to R34 GTR guards. All the info here is quite old. Useful, but old. At what point does the bumper itself become a clearance issue with wide wheels on a R34 GTR, specifically the part I've drawn in red here: All of the info that people post about implies that 285 is as far as you'd go before scrubbing becomes an issue, but they speak of hitting the inner plastic liners, not the bumper itself. Just how wide could you go if you took the liners out? Has anyone done it? I have been messing with my own car and spacers and heavily cursed my lack of planning, but I might not feel so bad if there's actually no gains to be had by going a GTR guard and front bar combination for $5k+ of money I do not have after spending about that much already on my solution which now has problems. (Woo) At least I now know why GTR guards and bumpers flare out like this over their GTT lesser cousins. I feel that in 2024, someone has gone further and attempted to run 315's or somesuch on the front of a R34 GTR. If you have, please post. If you're tried and failed for some other reason definitely post so I feel better about my mistakes
    • Genuine URAS Type R front guards in FRP. These will fit a GTT. They will only fit a GTT. If you have a GT or GTT and want wider fenders with a Z tune look up top, this is what you want. You use this with a regular GTT fitment bar. Not a GTR bar. They fit GTT guard liners and plastics, not GTR items. So if you're reading this thinking "Ah! I have a GTT or GT and want wider front guards that bolt directly on, but do not want the hassle of changing my bonnet and bumper and plastics and undertrays or anything else, this is what you want. The fitment is annoyingly perfect. I really would rather someone pick these up in person and not ship them. SE Melb.
