Ok guys, I am needing a favor. I am doing a custom fabrication project and need a picture or pictures of a R34 awd front suspension without the wheel. Perferably the best shots that show in detail everything in the fender well that consist of the front suspension. Thanks for those that post for me, it will be greatly appreciated.

R33/R34 is more or less the same. They use similar parts except the 1 piece tension rod/lower arm. Lots of R34's swap them out for adjustable parts.

Hey Sean, I was trying to get a hold of you the other day but couldn't reach you. Didn't know you all had changed the webpage. Been a while since I had been on it, not to mention talked to you over the phone. I'm the guy that you have talked to that is doing the AWD Z project. If you can give me a call when it is convenient on my cell 615-594-7174. Couldn't find the pic that I was looking for on the links that you sent but you know the site better than I do so.

Let me see what I can find. Its one of those parts that I look at 100 times, but I probably don't have many stand alone pictures of the suspension itself.

Sean,
Thanks for the links. Really close to what I was looking for. You have one pic that is spot on but too small to make out in detail of placement. I will post a few pics of the Z that I'm working on to show exactly what I will need to make this perfect. Hopefully in your line of work, you will come across a picture or be able to take a picture of what I am needing. Obviously the 300z front suspension is a little different in regards to the r34's. So modifications are needed in detail to make this work and function to top quality in the end.
I am shocked how the popularity of the skylines is so big but no one on the forums, youtube or any other form of media has a face on picture or video of the front suspension of an R34 whithout the wheel on it. haha!

Here are few pics of what I am looking at. You will see that each are is different at the top, so modifications will have to be made. I am sure there are a few different ways to go about this. I would like to modify the Z to the R34 style suspension since I have everything to do it and to keep the overall design and performance intact. Any thoughts are welcomed. Hopefully someone out there that does have a R34 is able or willing to take a picture of their suspension without the wheel on it with everything showing (mainly the upper part of the suspension).

Thanks, sean. This is what I'm looking for. If you ever get anymore of the upper arm or the axle coming through the front k-member please post. Probably, try and start on the suspension modifications next week.
