hi all.. I"ve been having some issues with my r33 gtr front bumper, got a new one, a series 3, looks damn nice.

ive mounted the bar up, and bolted the back screw of the bumper the screws into the guard, that one is small and easy.

Im not sure how to bolt this next part up, its a part on the side of the guards, and its the closest bolt to the front sdie of the headlight. its like a 1cm sclip of some type that goes throw the larger hole on the side bumper guard area. Does anyone know how this clips on or bolts up?, ive never seen a clip thing like this.

I have a red circle around the area.

also, my bumper did not have holes to bolt or clip into the reo bar, the part were the grill is.. i have circled these holes on a bumper picture i found on the internet. are these originaly there from factory?,, if so, i should make holes i guess... thanx a heap if some could lend me a hand, i dont want my bar following of sometime :D..

hi, yeah, grill is out, and just the bumper is mounted up. i just cant figure what type of clip or screw goes in this side front connection, it comes of the guard into the larger hole on the bumper.. i have the grill holes for the grill at the back of the reo, and i do have 3 smaller holes down for that, but the bar doesent reach them, and i have no holes on the front top of my bumper to mount onto reo. just feels un safe.. thanx

it should be the same as a gtst.

Generally its a 10mm bolt with a phillips head on it. where it screws/bolts into there should be a plastic insert for the thread to grip

how about an actual picture of what your talking about rather than one you cant actually make out what your looking at :(

Edited by gotRICE?

true.. thanx for the advice.. ill jusdt wait a couple of days until i pull the bar off again and i will take pictures.. i was wanting to know so i could finished the bolts off without taking apart, putting together, then apart when i find out :D.. thanx.. see whati can do :)

found a picture on a r34 diy of how to remove the bar..

its the blue circle.. its a dark clip and hard to see.. mines the same but in white.. wanting to know what goes on this clip once it pokes through the bumper hole

thanx so much.. i was think it might be a screw with a larger head.. because it needs to somehow keep this clip through the biggest hole on the bumper from coming out.. thanx again.. ill try a 10mm and see how it goers :P.. thanx 4 your time hey

    • You're not the first person that's said that about this car lol. A Touring wagon GT in Spark yellow mica would be the dog's danglies 😆 I will keep an eye out for a future purchase for sure. The seats are almost like the OEM Recaros... electric adjustment for fore/aft and tilt movements except reclining.   
    • Yes!! I love these! It's a shame its not the wagon though!   Thank everything that's holy that it doesn't have the interior of the Aussie delivered ones. Those seats are so much nicer.  
    • I'm both sorry and thankful that you do that. 
    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches.
