Love the front bar, I'm thinking of getting some side skirts and a rear wing for mine so if you don't want the wing, I'll take it :D Honestly I'd put the wing back on, I have seen some 34's without wings and they look pretty damn nice, but I dunno... either way I like.

Is your colour actually black or is it a dark blue like mine? I can't actually tell!

As for lowering it, I'm affraid to do it to mine, the cost versus the benefits don't make it seem like it's a good idea IMO. I drive in some parking lots and side streets with some very bad speed humps so it would worry me doing it, even on 18's.

Anyway I love the front bar, looks shit hot :D

so what's the deal with a real R34 GTR then? :D

Not sure, maybe the front bar sits lower on your car?

Or maybe the GTR has a bigger diam wheel/tyre - whats the stock tyre size on a GTT and a GTR and i can work it out for you....

Or ask Troy he'd probably know...

OzGTR02 (i think thats his sig) in Sydney has a sweet R34 GTR with all the front lips. It is the sme as yours, in that the front is crazy low even if the car itself isnt.

Paul has awesoem Weds with big dish, but last time i saw his car at Eastern he still has std suspension under it trying to work out how in the hell could he lower the thing without turning it into a street sweeper

edit...actually just found a recent photo of his car and i guess you can see what beign so low has done to it in the months since i saw his car.

while the bar looks like an exact replica or an R34 GTR bar, there may be differences in mounting points etc, and like I said the bonnet of a GTR sits higher. So probably slight differences in the height of your bar vs a GTR bar - any it may be slightly deeper than a stocker

The front tip which normally tips down has been cut, folded over and made to be like an R34 GTR bonnet.

The whole section would have been sanded back etc.

The black is undercoat/sealant to protect the area before it gets sprayed.

that's cos the car is smiling troy, shit... i'd be too if i'd look like that :thumbsup: - give a big cheesy one to the guy with the camera :ermm:

pete's right, just a protective layer before i spray it... i toyed with the idea of having the car done satin black, so a little matte, but a little shiny too... i think i ended up thinking it was a silly idea.

stock R34 GTT tyre/wheel combo's are 17", 225/45 i think?

do i have to keep the same diameter? i'm guessing 18" with 40 tryes would still be bigger than 17" 45?

yeah, it's $1200 i think, without the lower lip parts (2 sections, another couple hunge) and then you gotta spray it... will be a little disappointing when there are dodge fibreglass copies of this floating around... oh well, at least i can say i had the first one :wub: or an original one...

so according to the calulator i shouldn't change rims where the difference is greater than 3%..

must admit, didn't quite follow the site...

said 265/40/R18's were 5.3%, didn't like it...

what exactly does the site tell me?

that doesnt matter

it just affects your speedo, nothing else

its telling you the rolling diameter of the wheels

dan -

i would think that you'll want to go to 235/40/18 and 265/35/18s

same as R33GTSt

to maintain the same (similar) rolling diameter

That is correct. I have the same on my 34

Chinny - I've seen your car, my rims would fit under it easy. The only issue I saw with your bar is the height of it, dropping the car would be a b|tch.
