Not sure if this is any help, but there was some pics of a yellow R34 GT-T with GTR guards going round on the forum a little while back.

I think the guy was trying to pull a shonky deal by selling it off as a GTR, but it was definately a GT-T.

The thread itself isn't relevant, but the pics might be helpful to give you a better idea on apperance and fitment etc - might be worth doing a search (or perhaps someone else remembers who can help out?)

iv always used the boys at Queen St for any pannel work, i know they pump guards, and roll them etc.... and i have found them to be reasonable, for a job i wanted done parramatta smash repairs quoted $2000 and needed the car for 2weeks, Queen St did it for $170 and took 10mins.

Genuine R34 front guards are very light. I have picked one up with one finger. I think I know someone who has a pair. Might still have them, dunno.

But.. your bonnet and front bar wont fit up to GTR guards and I think there is some issue with the radiator support panel because the GTR one is a few cm higher than the GTT one. Cheapest option would have to be pumping the stockers.

Thanks, will give them a call soon!

Ruk; the fronts need to be flared to accomodate wider rims up front and to stop any scrubbing that happens when the car is dropped :action-smiley-069:

??????

my front and rear guards are rolled inside. We fit 20's (with 255/30 tyres) on and it was barely scraping on full wheel lock at the front. I think this is more of a GTR "lookalike" case?

Stan it all depends on how wide you go.

You can fit 20s by just rolling the guards as long as you get the right offset and dont go too wide.

What size rims are you thinking of getting ?

My new rims are 18x9 front and 18x10 rear and the fronts have no problem whatsoever, even when I lower it, it should be fine. The rears however are a different story, at the current ride height it is not touching at all, even with passengers in the rear. But the actual rim itself sticks out past the guards so I plan on getting them pumped when I respray the car in a few months time.

So id say determine your rim size and offset first and go from there, you may only need to do the rears.

As Adam said before, GTR front guards will be a hassle as you may have issues with the front bar etc and also the way the bonnet lines up. If thats the case you will not only need the GTR guards, but front bar and GTR bonnet. Unless you plan to go wider than 9 inches at the front than dont bother :action-smiley-069:

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
