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. 

$100 Negotiable

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?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.

      Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.

      Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?

      1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
