R34 GTT boot gas struts

Bought these gas struts from a wrecker for $100 thinking my own ones are faulty, on account of boot lid not fully lifting up on release of the catch. But later found out that with the heavy spoiler all R34 boot lids act the same. Will let go for $75 Negotiable

My loss your gain!

Possibly interested as my boot doesn't open and i thought it was my struts like you did.

What rear wing are you running? The reason I ask is that I'm running an oem gtr spoiler and it's not opening

Cheers

It still got an OEM GTT wing on it. So yours should be even lighter. When I release the boot catch from the lever inside the car the boot lid only lift up few inches and if I close the door bit hard it goes back in and re-closes itself. I expected it to be like any other car where the lid would lift up at least halfway. But it seems with R34s that has a wing on it, few inches is all we could expect.

Nissan Skyline R34 GTT OEM coil packs

Recently changed coil packs to brand new Split Fires. Removed these OEM ones at 75k on the clock. Might suit someone who wants to swap out one or more OEM coil packs.

R34s shipped with spoilers have a strut with a different part number to those shipped without (different pressures I imagine). They shouldn't be relocking themselves when you close the front door hard enough - at least my first gtt didn't. The part number for struts for that one is 84431-AA185.

My new gtt does the same thing as yours now. And from the factory it didn't have the spoiler (has been put on afterwards) and will close itself if I shut the driver hard enough. Part number for it is 84431-AA125 - which we probably both want to replace with the first one.

Anyway, I'm interested in trying the struts, especially if they're meant for a gtt with a spoiler. Would you take $50?

    • Also seen this as an option 
    • I get you, we’ll see I’m aiming for 200ish kw now and hopefully 300rwkw down the line after some upgrades maybe like headstuds, E85 flex fuel etc  so trying to make it final for that now, I can get a GTT airbox for $280 so it’s not too bad but not sure if there’s better ways to spend that money. I seen online they say pod filter which isn’t enclosed isn’t good especially for a plus T.      hard to say what to do
    • Meh. How much power can you make from a +T anyway? I wouldn't have though it would be enough to challenge the airbox. It's not as if it's tiny compared with the turbo one. As to putting a pod in a stock airbox .... it's not the filter element that would be restrictive. It would be the air inlet to the box that would be the narrow point, which you could open up regardless of what element was inside. On my R32 I opened up the sort of triangular opening in the bottom front corner of the box, deformed (heated, moulded) some 4" stormwater pipe to fit to that opening and punched a 4" hole down through the inner guard to the spot where the stock intercooler used to be. This was purely in the search for a cold intake, but you could do something similar if you need to open up the inlet side of it. The AFM tube size is the same for both NA and turbo, so the outlet from the airbox is same same anyway. If you're going to do the right thing, then an aftermarket ECU won't care about the AFM (ie, you can get rid of it). But even if it was still there, people pull >300rwkW through them all day, and I suspect you won't be going there.
    • R34 RB25de Neo by the way ^ 
    • Doing a +T on my car and I’ve read the precious forums lots of mixed reviews from sometime back.  checking if anyone has any ideas for airbox or enclosed pod filter or solutions?  I was thinking stock GTT box but some say it’s restrictive? I seen some people try fit in a pod in the box anyone done that recently?  not any good enclosed options ? Thanks
