possum is dead. haha

anyone got a bar, bar reo, and headlight for sale??

i'll give you 600 bucks..

The head light you need are going cheap on ebay i think starting at $45 and no one is buying them so a good chance you could pick one up for cheap. A lady ran a read light and hit my front bar, bent the reo and stuffed up the front bar quoted $150 to fix it and $300 to paint + a bit more damage (Women Drivers :P ). Since she's paying for the repairs i didnt really shop around for prices but im sure you could find a cheaper price some where. You could be able to get your front bar plastic welded but im not to sure if you have to much damage to get it plastic welded, friend got his front bar on his WRX done for $200 (spray and plastic weld no reo fix)

Hope that helps, atleast you cleaned up the possum

do u have that link to the ebay page where the lights are at?

my reo is bent back pretty far but apparently it can be fixed, or we're going to give it a ago.

just the finding the front bar is the problem. no body seems to have any at all.

Rooshoo/Animal repellers. Stick em to your car where there is high air flow. Emits a high frequence sound after 30km/h as the air flows through it and animals ping off ( but dont count on it with wombats though ). $6.95 at Super cheap and you can buy electric powered ones that work all the time while the car is running. One of the best and cheapest insurances against Roos and other animals you can buy.

I'm not to sure but i think the gtst light would fit if your car is a gtr as i think only the indicators were different on the gtr. Anyways the guy that is selling the lights on ebay only has the right one for sale as the rest have all been bought but he always gets more stock in just keep an eye on his store. ( http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...4537139369&rd=1 .......The light http://search.ebay.com.au/_W0QQfrtsZ0QQfso...line004QQsojsZ0 ......His online store).

There is also some one in the for sale section selling the left hand light ( http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=68191 )

      R34 GT-T cycling ABS pump

      Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?

      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).
