Hi all, i was wondering what the best route for converting the look of your R34 GT -GTT to a "wider" more R34 GTR look is...

I dont know where to find the GTR hood and the hinges for it to bolt on to the GT frame and where to find the rear wider fenders. I know of Uras rear widening fenders but they are more squarish and i dont really want to by them and reshape them myself, cause quite frankly i dont know how or who does that, and i am aware that they sell the front widening fenders and the front lip, i was curious as i have seen some coversions around and they look convicingly good.

What i really want to know is where to find the GTR hoods, it doesnt have to be A stock GTR hood it can be a TS hood or a CW just anything that is shorter than the GT hood, and more importantly the hinges that go with them respectively. So far i have done nothing to my R34 GT but hopefully when im done i can then work on performance mods and the like.

If you dont know where to get them or find them can people even just give me a list of body shops that have clean kits for R34's (2 Door) cause my stock 34 isnt cuting it for me at all. :) Much appreciated thanks to anyone who answers in advance...

one guy on here did the actual GTR conversion, think it cost him like 20 grand or more, might have been closer to 30. just go for an aftermarket widebody kit, although there isnt much around for the 34 GTt

mate of mine is going this route in his 34 soon but for the life of me cant remember what kit hes getting. shouldnt be too hard to source a GTR style bonnet, hinges would probly be the main issue. look at bodykit places like jetspeed etc for bonnet.

hey mate, first off. get the gtr conversion parts (gtr bonnet, gtr front bar, gtr front gaurds) from eastbear. they make an actual conversion kit for gt's that fit directly on. and with the gaurds. you'd either have to find a written off one, or get new ones from nissan. but alot of money is needed, so be ready. or just go to a good fibreglasser and get custom rear gaurds made up which frankly is better so you can have something different to any other skyline. let us know how it goes mate. cheers.

Thanks guys thats much appreciated. I think i can probably get the hinges from Nissan itself if thats possible, and ill look around for sure i have more areas to do my homework on so ill let you know when im done with it all.

      R32 GTR clutch master cylinder adapters

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.

      Not required but appreciated. Super Coppermix Twin even the non-competition model feels like the pedal is noticeably heavier than stock which was pretty well judged IMO. I'll be swapping in the Nismo operating cylinder soon to see how that feels.  Personally I haven't felt anything that justifies replacing the damping loop, at least compared to more modern stuff where the clutch delay valve is actually quite noticeable.

      He made that comment in my thread - In my case the vents ARE to lower engine heat, when the car is not moving, which is the only scenario I have heat problems with the aircon on, sitting in traffic, on 40C+ days. I can't imagine a scenario that this NC needs any at this point in time. I do not know if it will actually make my cooling when the car is MOVING worse, and I sincerely hope that won't be the case. If it does, well, um, f**k.

      Nice, thanks. Thats why I was asking, there'd been a fair bit of discussion in the E90 world about vents and where it makes sense to put one (ie, over the filters is not great as that is inline or slightly behind the struts and in higher pressure area). I struggle with air flow and pressures. It sill weirds me out that a radiator in the boot can work.

      Neither really Vents, when located in the right place, will lower the engine bay "pressure", as air has a path to escape, thus lowering the engine bay pressure, thus.....improving the efficiency on the coolant stack (read: IC, condenser, radiator) This is why the Blits vented bonnet on my 33 worked so well, the vent was in the front 1/3 of the bonnet, which put it right after the radiator  If the vents are to far back toward the windscreen, which is a high pressure zone, it can actually force air into the engine bay, causing higher pressure and effectively loosing efficiency on the cooling stack, like the fab of raising the rear of the bonnet, which does allow heat to escape, but only when the car isn't moving  There's heaps of cool "fluid dynamics" info out there, but, I'll attach a video of a 'Merican joint that focuses on "Miatas" as I found it when looking into vents for mine, they explain it way better than me
