Hello guys!

I crashed my BNR34 last month and trying to fix it now but, there is no any stock of parts that is front side member (parts number 7510024U30 and 7510124U30 ). 
Fortunately, I could get front closing plates (parts number 75131-24U00 and 75132-05U05) but couldn’t get main side members.
So, I can’t fix my car anymore... I searched some information and found out that  Bcnr33, Enr34 are using same front side member. However, those of side members are sold out or discontinued. Does anybody have ideas for fix my car, could you help me please. (Sorry for my bad English)

thank you 

 

sincerely

Thank you for replying my topic!

I already asked and entrusting to fix my car for a panel beater that close to my house but, they said we don’t have any technique to repair bent metal. So I was wondering if there is another way to fix my car...

or buy a donor car such as ENR34 or something

well you beat me to my suggestion since it's a 34 GTR ?

seriously....find a more traditional panel beater who has the old skills to make them, not a modern guy who just buys bits and glues them back on.

That is the very definition of a panel beater. I cry and I wail for the state of manual skills present in the motor trades these days.

Take it somewhere else, to someone who has hammers and dollys and rolls and straightening benches.

Yep !

Gone are those where you walk into a panel beaters and see an english wheel or for that matter find someone who knows how to panel beat an aluminium body panel ! There is a lost skill if I've ever seen one.

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
