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.

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc.

      Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?

      Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...

      R34 auto to manual conversion help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
