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

    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go.
