Hey guys

Someone was kind enough to back into my car the other day :D so now i need to get some things fixed.

i have already pick out a front bar (do luck) but i was also thinking about getting some wide gaurds done.

just wanted to know what everyone thought and here from some people who have gone through the trouble of doing it.

is it worh it? how hard was it? adn what did it look like (PICSOBARN!)

This goes for both front and rear ones, do the wider GTR rear guards/quaters fit on the GTS-T

Thank for your help in advance.

Hi

Yes the GTR fronts will fit a GTST, bonnet and grill will aswel, you will have to play around with the front bar though to make it look perfect. Or just get an R32 GTR front bar aswel while you're at it which would be the best option IMO

For the rears - that will cost some big money for the result, i dont think its worth it, but run around and get some quotes, they may be in your budget

My Silvia is in getting it's widebody fitted.. and he had a GTS-T in there that had been crashed in the rear.

The guy found a slightly damaged R32 GTR Rear cut which he basically got for nothing.. (this is NZ :P ) and has now had the whole thing stiched on.. old skin removed and the GTR one put on. It was done in a couple of days.

All up though by the time you include the painting etc, your looking a few thousand just for the rear guards..

front guards will fit but you need GTR indicators as well

just dont get fibreglass guards

they always look shit compared to genuine metal ones

i did the rear quaters on my car

its not a massive job compared to some other shit people do.

only issue you will have is the inner guards will be too short

and the fuel filler wont line up properly

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
