Hi all,

Been looking for some small items to make the GTT a little bit different for a while now - there's not much out there without getting stuff full custom made etc etc. Now as we all know; going down the "custom" path is pretty pricey - not an avenue I particularly wanted to invest in, especially if it was just for aesthetics.

Anyhow I stumbled accross the following:

1) Carbon Fibre Door Sills made to original spec (including the SKYLINE word)

2) R34 GTT Bonnet Lip (see photo below)

Now you may all say that there is nothing special about the bonnet lip - you'd be correct. But I am yet to be able to find a place where I can get one from in Australia. Furthermore; paying close to $300 for one from Japan is outrageous!

Anyways; both items now in my grubby paws and waiting for spraying/fitment. Meanwhile; here are some photos :P

The door sills were a custom item yes :mage: They were about $250 + delivery to Australia.

I actually bought 2 sets instead of one due to some miscommunication with the guy (thought I paid $500 for them at first :P). There's a spare set lying around but I think it's been sold; got a lot of interest from GTT guys once I put them up in the F/S thread.

Yeah there seems to be a lot of division about the lip... I've always wanted one; just was never able to get my hands on one until now.

The price of the sills is I think a bargain considering the lengths of the sills (two of them) and the quality of the finish and CF.

I was looking into doing metal ones before, but the tooling cost to get them done just wasn't viable - I would've needed to move about 400 sets before the tooling cost was even recovered.

    • I do have their “Nissanie Motorsports Co.” vin plates, but I am curious if anyone would have more info on them. Like how many cars they’ve imported and whatnot
    • Been a long while since i have updated this money pit lol.  Have had a few tune related issues with the car, first blowing the frost plug out the back of the head and then blowing the headgasket 3 months later, which has now been retuned and sorted. Done a few little changes along the way as well, i wasn't happy with the wheel and brake setup, so start of last year i managed to get myself a set of r35 brakes and nismo lmgt4 18x10.5 +15 Upgraded to now running a Precision Gen 2 6870 with a 1.15ar, to be honest felt more like a downgrade as the car feels much lazier around town compared to the Gen2 6466 previously. 0761719E-5683-43F7-BD3B-4BD94335DFF4.mov
    • Hi there, i am currently using the Elmers Racing Billet merge collector, we are using sch40 tubing and 1.5" ID, no cracks so far. however if i was to do it again, i would go sch10 with 1.25" runners
    • I haven't touched the turbos so might need to look at that 👍 Appreciated 🙏
    • If you haven't replaced the OEM turbos, replace them sooner than later. I have seen recent pictures of what OEM ceramic turbo failure can do in an RB26 and it will make a 10k AUD budget look like a joke. Single vs twins have been done to death on this forum. If your turbos haven't fallen apart you can probably send yours off to Hypergear for rebuild. The journal bearing option will have more turbo lag but it's a good bit cheaper. I would probably go for ball bearing CHRA but keep in mind ball bearing turbos are more particular about oil pressure/flow.
