Hey guys,

I'm about to buy a genuine nissan option front lip for my yellow R34.

I used to like the Altis front bar but I found the grill area too curvy, doesn't look as tuff as the stock bar, but I do like the bottom lip bit.

Anyway, my question is, should I spray the middle of the nission option lip matt black? So it looks like the Altis front bar?

Or should I spray the whole thing yellow? Or wrap the middle in carbon fibre vinyl? :(

Here's a photo I edited in photoshop, the car was originally silver, so I had to make it yellow lol. And no, my car doesn't have eye lids.

post some pics of the front of your car, also, why not try photoshopping your front bar in black and with the carbon wrap on it? would be interesting to see the cf wrap on the front

My front bar is just the stock one.

I haven't got the lip yet, picking it up on wednesday.

But what I meant by carbon fibre wrapping is just wrap the middle of the lip and keep the rest yellow.

Here's a pic of my car:

Here is my terrible attempt at a photoshop job, might give an idea

Thanks :P I can kinda picture what it'd look like, but I need other people's opinion lol.

But maybe, I'm thinking to spray the whole thing yellow first, then if I want the middle black/CF, I'll just get vinyl to wrap it?

I think it looks good the way it is.

What about a GT-R style front lip while still keeping the stock bar. I've seen a few of them going around but always on white gt/gtt.

these look hot, but at $600ish, costs more than a new front bar

Oh sh*t! *runs*!

Nah man, you pics are the only decent pics of a r34 with the lips :P And me likey :(

So what do you reckon? Since you have one of those on your car? Matt black/CF middle or yellow? ;)

Yeah, what RusH_ said, a genuine east bear one cost $600-700 and there's 2 reasons to why I chose the nissan lip.

-Getting it for $150 lol (2nd hand of coz)

-It doesn't make the front of the car THAT much lower? As to the gtr lips that sits UNDER the bar, where as the nissan lip sits over the bottom of the bar. As you can see, my car is pretty low, so it's not worth spending $600 on a lip that'd scrap on the first day that I get it, I think I'd get so pissed that I'll just kick my bumper in lol.

i searched for ages for one of these front lips because i wanted a genuine one. i finally found one in japan on importmonster and it was already in black so i didnt have to paint it and i love it, it makes the front look so much more aggressive. just to let you know you will have to drill a hole on each side of your front bumper to fit it on then underneath as well.

edit: just to add if you wanted a brand new one of these from nissan its $1200, no BS, i got a quote for one from some nissan dealer on the net.

Had the same idea when i was fitting mine but decieded to spray it all the same colour, heaps better i recon.

Your car looks sick man! The east bear lip is the best thing you can do to that altsa bar lol, but with your coloured car, it was best to do it all silver :P

Do you have pics of your car? I wanna see the lip on it :P

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      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

      By Duncan · Posted

      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...
