Leave it standard, you'll save more money and get more enjoyment out of the vehicle.

all i'd do on a bnr32 would be to get

-doluck rear wing and bumper spoiler (i think this only works on black though)

-n1 side skirts

-original front bar and lip with n1 vents

And R34 GTR wheels. Still lusting over that tasty do luck R32 that popped up on the Prestige list ages ago Franky? :cheers:

Wreckhead, what happened to the Impuls that where on the car when it was in HPI?? I've got the exact same rims and had a laugh when the article talked about 'these are very rare rims, you wouldn't find another set in australia' or something similar... ha ha

Did they come with the car and you didn't like them?

Cheers

i hated those impul wheels cause all they are good for is massive traction, but id rather show then go, so i sold them and put the 18s on.

if those rims are so rare how come i didnt get 40,000 for them when i sold them?

Wreckhead, my point exactly, I've only seen them on your car and mine, but to say they are extremely rare is a bit overstated I think....

Personal opinion regarding whether they are show or not I guess, but the deep dish does look horny I think...

Just to make sure, these are the same ones you had right??

i bought a gtr becasue it was the beter option at the time, and stock as a rock it looks 1000 times more sexier than a gtst no offence to anyone.

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc.

      Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?

      Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...

      R34 auto to manual conversion help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
