hey,

Im looking to replace my bumper, as it has some damage to the driver side on it and was thinking i might just sell the gtr pods on it and replace the whole thing, but the only problem is i am having problem find anything remontly nice :P

i would like something to match my car nismo front bar and 400r side does anyone have any idea of a good 1?

Ok now onto the crazy ideas :D

1. r34 headlights onto a r33 is it possable and wat are peoples comments of how they would think they would look (tring to do a photochop but dont have any pics of r34 headlights) the reason this has come around is i need 2 replace of my headlights (damage) so i was thinkng i might do something different

2. My dad had this crazy idea and i was wondering if it would work, he said i wonder if u can hook the aircon up so it blows into the turbo, so some how connect the aircon to the intake pipe (where air filter is or make 2 pipes so still have air filter) and when turning on the aircon have coldair pump into it.

This idea has 1 major problem i think is that when the aircon is on the car seems to run alittle less quick and maybe the gain will just be as if it was running withou the aircon

any input would be helpful of all subjects :)

thanks Mike :headspin:

thanks for the photo prae :)

hmmm looking at the photo i am still not sure if it will work so good or even look so good confused :P

dan, i have no idea how the aircon works but i wonder if u could make a little aircon unit that has its own power supply and doesnt run off the engine and use that, my dad knows about those things so i will get him onto it when he gets back from work 2day.

Crazy ideas look wat happens when i dont go 2 school ahahaha :D

i had an idea back in the day when i was still wanting a v8 (hehehe how things have change) and i was thinking if adding a some vucum onto the intake pipes so that air is suck in faster therefore more air,

dont know if that would work again just another crazy idea

yeah dan_the_man is right, your turbo sucks a lot of air through the airfilters, an air conditioning unit wont even have close to enoguh power to make a differnce, i had the same idea when i was supercharging my bmw, also im not sure about this but the air that is coming out of the A/C unit isnt oxygen enriched like air from the atmostphere, which means even though its cold your engine be able to burn it as good as normal air, correct me if im wront.

If you use R34 lights you'll probably need to use R34 bonnett to match them ....then you'll probably need front bar to suit R34. I've just gone that route putting R33series 2 lights on my series 1. Series 1 bonnet and front bar no longer lined up properly

ok r34 lights r the go ahead :(

but only problem is i need a kit maybe someone could help me out, maybe rezz can come in and help me out

just get a bodykit instead of the stock R34 one if its better (eg: do luck, nimso etc)

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
