hey mate, i have an r33 coupe and ended up getting a r33 4 door rear garnish as they have the silver 'skyline' letters on them whereas the coupe garnish is colour coded. I'm pretty sure this applies to the r34's as well. all i did was pop off the letters and stick them directly over the top of the letters as I prefer the look of the chrome letters. I just had a quick look on ebay and looks as though you would need to purchase the entire bootlid to get the letters which could be a bit costly so maybe you could try spraying or sticking chrome overlay on the letters. just an idea

They are on the rear bumper for an R34.

If you put a post up in the WTB section, maybe someone on the forums can help you out. Or try a few more local wreckers. Where are you located, I know of a few spare parts places in Sydney that may be able to help you.

As Steven said above, if worst comes to worst, you should be able to order them new from Nissan. (But as with anything direct, get ready to bend over when you see the price)

I actually have the S and Y and the E kicking around somewhere, but they wouldnt be much use to you as they obviously arent the full set. I found them in the boot of one of my GTT's while cleaning - the previous owner had removed them for the 'clean' look.

Also important to note that the series 1 and series 2 R34 chrome letters are different.

Series 2 letters are smaller and closer together, so bare this in mind while searching.

Hope this helps, good luck with the search.

Thanks guys this helps, I am in Sydney and have been searching through some wreckers but so far without luck, let me know know if you have some shops in mind specifically. Some weeks back some one also told me to check with Nissan but told me that it may cost a fortune so I haven't checked with Nissan yet.

Cheers

Thanks Mate, Just bought the whole SKYLINE from this guy for $20 bucks!

Now off to get some badge adhesive.

Cheers

Try this guy - 0410 069 096.

I've bought a few things from him previously.

He is at Wetherill Park, can be good for some stuff.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
