6 nuts to be undone from inside the boot ... 3 either side below the lights towards the outside of the car.. 12mm if i remember right... then you have to remove the "skyline" from between the lights (4 nuts from behind plastic panel near latch) then there will be 2-3 clips on a shelf the bar sits on......... then slide it out!!

oh and check out the number plate mount.. will have to remove plate and possibly the mount too... i removed mine but not sure if essential!!

hope this helps

cool... i'll use this when my bodykit finally arrives.

you mention the "skyline" between the lights. do you know where I can get a hold of the "skyline" that actually illuminates? i don't know if this is an extra thing or if it's part of the series 1 skylines?

be very interested in getting a hold of one of those...

really? nice... so it is the "skyline" section that is of the see-through type indicator plastic material type thingo-ma-boby-ma-jig (beware; i'm getting highly technical here)...? i'm not interested unless it lights up, because i've seen a few of them and they do look very cool and very rice'y..

cost? no idea... what's the going rate?

myr332, the ones that light up are from series 1 gtst's cause they are clear, just have to install led's behind it.. i put a neon back there but it's not big enough.. will be hooking up led's soon!

you also have to paint the panel around the letters if you only want the letters lighting up, or leave it if you want all of it (skyline has silver chrome paint on it standard)..

so all I have to do is go to a wreckers and buy the see-through variety skyline plate? do they have these packaged anywhere (including the required neon) that I can buy off the shelf, or will it be a bit of a DIY job?

thanks for your help! :)

offcourse i read what he said, i was offering him something and you don thave to interupt like on all of my other sales.

You are a moron that clearly has an issue comprehending plain english.

I was clarifying what myr332 appeared to be looking for to assist your thread and attempt to prevent confusion.

Enough crying

      Fender flare widths across front/back of car

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Hey y'all! I'm curious about how y'all go about widebodying your cars. I noticed that when running a square setup, my front wheels are a bit more tucked in than my rear wheels. Not by much, maybe 5-10mm. This leads me to wonder - when I widebody, should I use narrower front flares and wider rear flares? I found a set of 40mm rear flares that I really like, and was thinking of pairing them with some 18mm front flares, but I don't want the car to look strange. How have others done this? Note, I'm in a sedan. Thanks!

      And if it was anything other than an auto tranny part, it might be a problem. But seeing as all auto trannies belong in the recycling bin, it's fine.

      All the schemas I can see, indicate your typical setup of ATF 'cooler' (read: heat exchanger) in the bottom radiator tank..ie; https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/wgnc34/5413-rb25det/engine/214/ ...but I can prattle on a bit here. These trannies have a thermistor in the sump ~ the TCU reads this and 1. bumps the line pressure up when the ATF is 'cold' and 2. prevents the TC lockup clutch from operating, until the ATF comes up to minimum operating temp (keeps the ATF 'churning' through the TC so it heats up quicker) -- trigger point is around 55C. In these conditions, the engine coolant temperature rises faster than the ATF temperature, and also helps heat the ATF up, which is why it's best to think of the in radiator tank setup as a heat exchanger ; the heat can flow in both directions... ...with these trannies, the 'hot' ATF comes out the front banjo bolt, flows through the cooler/heat exchanger, and returns to the box  via the rear banjo bolt. This gets a mention, due to the wildly different opinions wrt running auto trans fluid coolers ~ do you bypass the in radiator tank altogether, or put the cooler inline with the in radiator tank system...and then, do you put the additional cooler before of after the in radiator tank system?... ....fact is the nominal engine operating temp (roughly 75C), happens to be the ideal temperature for the ATF used in these trannies as well (no surprises there), so for the in radiator tank system to actually 'cool' the ATF, the ATF temp has to be hotter than that...lets say 100C -- you've got 25C of 'excess' heat, (slowly) pumping into the 75C coolant. This part of the equation changes drastically, when you've got 100C ATF flowing through an air cooled radiator ; you can move a lot more excess heat, faster ~ it is possible to cool the ATF 'too much' as it were...(climate matters a lot)... ...in an 'ideal' setup, what you're really trying to control here, is flash heating of the ATF, primarily produced by the TC interface. In a perfect world, wrt auto trans oil cooling, you want a dedicated trans cooler with builtin thermostatic valving - they exist. These should be run inline and before the in radiator tank system ~ when 'cold' the valving bypasses the fin stack, allowing the ATF to flow direct to the in radiator tank heat exchanger, so it works 'as intended' with helping heat the ATF up. When 'hot' (iirc it was 50C threshold), the valving shuts forcing the ATF through the cooler fin stack, and onto the in radiator tank heat exchanger...and you sort of think of it as a 'thermal conditioner' of sorts...ie; if you did cool your ATF down to 65C, the coolant will add a little heat, otherwise it works as intended... ...the 'hot' ATF coming from the front bango bolt, is instantiated from the TC when in use, so all/any flash heated oil, flows to the fluid-to-air cooler first, and because of the greater heat differential, you can get rid of this heat fast. Just how big (BTU/h) this cooler needs to be to effectively dissipate this TC flash heat, is the charm...too many variables to discuss here, but I just wanted to point out the nitty-gritty of automatic trans fluid coolers ~ they're a different beastie to what most ppl think of when considering an 'oil cooler'... /3.5cents
