Hey guys,

As per the other thread floating around for R33, someone has informed me they can supply similar Alloy Radiator Air Guides made for R34 GT-T.

The purpose of them is to direct more air to your radiator and make it function more efficiently. Plus they look extra cool :)

We need at least 10 buyers to get the price down, but probably looking at around $75 including delivery to anywhere in Australia. Normally they retail for $200+ (dont ask me why, it's just a piece of metal!)

Anyway, please post here if you would be interested in buying one.

Cheers

:D

Im 99.9% - is that picture an exact representation? Or just to show what you are talking about?

I want to get an idea on the quality first :D

The $200+ are usually Big Jap Brand Names, the cheaper ones are not!

If I had one to work from I could get them made up for bugger all......

Anyone got any lying around?

I'm more than happy to pay $70 for it though.

So what is the benefit of these things?
They blow dry your hair while you drive :) You asked for it Chinny!!!

Taken from the first post:

My oil runs a little hotter after the fitment of my Intercooler, so I'm hoping to drop those temps back down a little with one of these.

UAS are doing a group buy at $40 for the R33 versions.....

Maybe we could have them make a bunch up for the R34 at the same price?

I already contacted Unique Auto Sports 2 weeks ago about doing a group buy on these designed for R34, but they can only supply ones made to fit R33... which they suggested would work ok if they were cut short/modified to fit. I would prefer to have one designed for the R34 than modify an R33 one, even though the price is cheaper..

Anyway still waiting on confirmation of prices and hopefully some more photo's. The prices will be cheaper for SA and VIC due to delivery costs.

I'm interested.. tho the picture dont really show much... I just wonder if there will b any issue in fitting this into my car tho, since i have an aftermarket bodykit. I have seen a 34 with these alloy air guides, but unfortunately havent seen him for ages to enquire about it..

The body kit may have some impact as to where the front of the aluminium mounts to.

Also, if you block off the air going through the grill, wont you block the air going to the air intake???

Maybe we could get all funky and make a dual entry thing, with a duct to the air intake, with the bottom sealed off so that air doesn't go over the top of the radiator????

The three circles are where you could bolt into for the standard one, and just behind the front bar top bit, are three holes in the steel panel that goes behind it, which you could also mount too if required.

I think that makes sence....

    • 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).
