Can you send me some pics of that little lip spoiler once you've pried it off, curious if it would fit a sedan.Also what's the go with a series 1 hood compared to a series 2?

Not sure if s1 and 2 are the same or not, but I can fit the lip up to the sedan boot I have lying around to see if it fits

Well I've got a series 2 sedan, if that hood fits I'll take it...if someone can tell me what the difference is I'd appreciate it.

happy to fit up the boot lip and post a pic, the bonnet would be pick up only though i'm afraid

How much for the air con compressor if its not gone with the engine

yep still got the compressor, you can have it for 40 bux cos i didn't test it before pulling the car apart

Do

You have an airbag steering wheel?? Series 1 one. Not 2??

sorry no airbag series one wheel

Got a radiator shroud

no radiator shroud sorry

Still go the car? If so Im keen on the FMIC and pipe kit and the drivers seatbelt?? Happy to pick up....

ic is gone, car has been crashed so i would not sell the seatbelt dude

  • 3 weeks later...

righto, car has now gone to the scrap yard

The following is all I have left:

-Complete rear end incl cradle, diff, shafts, hubs, steering rack etc $150 pick up only or happy to separate parts. Won't ship whole rear end but can ship smaller parts. PM for quotes.

-Series 1 headlights $100 pair. Can post, PM for quotes.

-Boot lip spoiler $100. Can post. Genuine Nissan item. Good condition although 2 of the 4 mounts on the back are broken. Should stay on nice and firm with extra tape/glue.

-Full lock set with matching key, can post $120 (door, boot, and ignition barrel with key)

-Steering wheel plastics, can post $30

-Front reo $40 pick up only. Has been cut to fit intercooler.

-Bonnet release cable $25

Pick up from Valley Heights Sydney. Some items can be posted, see description.

    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go. 
    • The roof is wrapped
    • This is how I last did this when I had a master cylinder fail and introduce air. Bleed before first stage, go oh shit through first stage, bleed at end of first stage, go oh shit through second stage, bleed at end of second stage, go oh shit through third stage, bleed at end of third stage, go oh shit through fourth stage, bleed at lunch, go oh shit through fifth stage, bleed at end of fifth stage, go oh shit through sixth stage....you get the idea. It did come good in the end. My Topdon scan tool can bleed the HY51 and V37, but it doesn't have a consult connector and I don't have an R34 to check that on. I think finding a tool in an Australian workshop other than Nissan that can bleed an R34 will be like rocking horse poo. No way will a generic ODB tool do it.
    • Hmm. Perhaps not the same engineers. The OE Nissan engineers did not forsee a future with spacers pushing the tie rod force application further away from the steering arm and creating that torque. The failures are happening since the advent of those things, and some 30 years after they designed the uprights. So latent casting deficiencies, 30+ yrs of wear and tear, + unexpected usage could quite easily = unforeseen failure. Meanwhile, the engineers who are designing the billet CNC or fabricated uprights are also designing, for the same parts makers, the correction tie rod ends. And they are designing and building these with motorsport (or, at the very least, the meth addled antics of drifters) in mind. So I would hope (in fact, I would expect) that their design work included the offset of that steering force. Doesn't mean that it is not totally valid to ask the question of them, before committing $$.
