ill say it again, by far the best kit available for a GT/T :D

were they genuine items or fibreglass?

does anyone know how much the genuine plastic IMPUL side skirts for an R34 GTT cost ? I have the carmate ones installed and while the fit is good they've managed to crack them in 2 corners while fitting, leave a couple of gaps etc .. and I'm fretting everytime passengers get in/out of the car just waiting for someone to snag on the passenger sideskirts and crack it good

thats generally the case with copy kits in fibreglass.

actually come to think of it a few months ago someone on SAU was selling what he claimed was a genuine full impul kit and IIRC according to him it also was made from fibreglass (presumbably thicker and more accurate then the copies floating around) Can anyone confirm ?

  • 3 months later...

so guys what's the best deal? or should I say, 'Best Fit' from the copies?

- carmate

- J Racing

- PSI

- DMD

- empire aero

I've also heard that 'original' kits are fibreglass.

here's a link to a carbon fiber one in the US - looks bloody nice :D but $$

I'm keen to buy a full kit or at least a front bar and side skirt.

if you have a 'copy' kit installed, please post any updated comments. fitting?, cracking? or general durability? and where you purchased the kit.

Cheers!!

since you're in brissy go with DMD ..from memory they're up there too and they have a much better rep than carmate. The fittment on my carmate rar bar was perfect ..side skirts were about 90% BUT the paintjob was an absolute shocker...

cheers for the comments! the %% rating for fitting is very helpful

I'm keen to hear from anyone that has had an 34 GTT Impul kit installed / purchased from DMD or sites. more comments?

The original kits are in fibreglass. From what i know it's good quality fb and it's a direct fit compared to copies.

If you want a genuine Impul front bar pm me and i'll hook you up with the seller, assuming he's still got it. I got my side skirts off him last week and it's in a very good condition. Here's the pic after washing 10yrs dirt off the skirts :

For what it's worth, a mate of mine recently got this kit for his White 34 GT. We went with Carmate (Supply, paint & fit) as they were the only people closeby our research could find. Didn't have any issues dealing with them and the end result isn't bad, paint looks fine and the fitment is pretty good, a few minor imperfections at worst but you'd practically have to point them out to notice.

Friend and I were skeptical given the rep, but we took the gamble anyway, for us we're pretty happy with the outcome. Might get pics once the car is cleaned up.

I just bought a Impul kit and is being delivered as we speak, I will post up pix of my black R34 for everyone once its all done.

GTR wing and custom bonnet to match if all comes together.

P.S if you are happy with a job its not good enough, you drive a skyline not a VW would you buy a new car with a OK engine and still pay for a car with a perfect engine?

Neways cheers.

    • Yeh... literally every time i jump on a forum, see an instagram post or see an engine bay at a car show, i get an idea and add it to my 'to do' list. So what started off as, hey can u just make a couple of intake hard pipes because my dumbass bought the wrong apexi kit, blew out into a 2 week job including braided brake lines & custom bash kit for the front lip haha.  Getting Luke from A4E engineering to make a full custom exhaust with a controllable aes dump valve so i can actually switch between quiet and loud, because right now its just loud all day every day. Then after that go and get the tune redone flex e85 & 98 as i get bugger all milage from e85, makes going for longer drivers difficult
    • Car looks clean as. You ended up getting quite a bit done 😂  So what's the plan for the exhaust? 
    • The only Neo rods that were any different to any other RB25 rods were the DET ones, and they were the same as RB26. Here is a Neo DET rod. O5U part number visible. Here is a post in a thread here on SAU with evidence from someone who has done this before. There are photos in the thread of normal RB25 rods.  
    • Sure, but why assume that will be the case forever? And why assume you'll be able to do an oil change to swap back to a stock drain bolt before that happens? And does it even matter when I change the oil at fairly short intervals? Life can be funny sometimes and unexpected things can happen. Like breaking a collarbone so you can't do any work on your car for a few months but the oil change is due so you have to take it to somewhere and hope they don't do something stupid like stacking the new drain plug washer on top of the old one.
    • Do u know how to identify the rods are rb25 or neo ones? Can u look into the pics and tell me is they de or de neo ones. Its confusing becoz my motor has de neo head but block is 25de 75t, so really confusing me about rods, crank.
