Hi all,

Just wondering if someone can fill me in on the different types of front bars that seem to be around on R34 GTRs... I have seen this type which I guess is the standard type with no openings on the sides:

Also this type with a single opening/slot - is it Nismo?

And this type with two slots:

Do all GTRs come with the first type from factory or is there a difference with V Spec/NUR/Nismo editions?

There's a lot of BNR34 front bars that's for sure!

First one in your pic is the standard oem Nissan plastic front bar. Next one down the the Nismo Z tune front bar which is the most expensive option, although you don't need the lower front lip with that bar. Third bar is standard with aftermarket front and side ducts. It's not a Nismo bar.

This is a Nismo front bar, before the Z tune bar was released.

I don't know the exact price but there was a used z tune bar that was sold for about a grand in yahoo and it needed to be repaired. There's also a full dry carbon version you can buy but most people would cringe if they found out the price. Imo the best bar is the oem plastic one. It has flexibility as well as perfect fitment. Add those front and side ducts and would be perfect.

Does anyone know where I can get these front side ducts to mod the standard R34 front bar?

I know Aaron from ImportMonster had a complete front bar with the oil cooler vents. Contact him and see if he still has it.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
