hi all. i've just recently chosen an r34 gt4 for my first car.

what i'm now looking for are parts to upgrade the cosmetics of the car with going too outrageous. as being on red p's it's about all i can do.

Now the car is completely stock bar a catback exhaust. & i'm looking to do those little things to make it look better. i'd like to start with LED tail lights, clear front & side indicators all of which i'm looking to go to justjap for. next would be new rims as the ones it currently has aren't exactly what i'd call nice... IMO i'm looking for a more basic looking set. as for the body a GTR front bar is a must, to me it does much more credit to the car than the standard one & perhaps follow it through with the rest of the basic GTR kit. - badges obviously. makes it look more appealing but neater than alot of the other kits floating around.

now i know what i want, or atleast a basic style of what i'd like to get, now i must ask you guys where & for how much do you think i should get these parts for. i know the rear flares are harder to get & install as i've read & learnt quite alot from these forums but i'd like to know the places you guys personally reccomend & have had good experiences with. i know my stuff but am ultimately lacking the experience you lot would obviously have. any help would be great.

thanks.

Have a look hereat the link above, JSAI is located in Sydney. Josh who runs it is a top bloke.

nice, hey thanks mate you're a legend. these prices are MUCH better than what i'd been finding lol. know anyone who'd do the rear flares? i don't know many shops so i've spent most my time on justjap & powerplay.

Hey Dean, there's one thing you should know...this is for your sake.

A GTR badge belongs only on a GTR doesn't matter how good your car looks or how powerful it is.

It will never be a GTR, so why would you even bother trying to decieve people to think it is?

It just isn't right :D

i was being sarcastic?

i plan to shave it all but the gt badges lol. hence the - before a typed GTR badges up top. it's an n/a skyline, power is hardly on the cards to begin with & as for looks. the kit is all i want. don't like the gt stock kit at all. impul is growing on me.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Just checking, when we are talking about high temp fluid, are we all referring to DOT 5.1? I haven't had any issues with changing it every 2-3 years.

      Yeah that is still true AFAIK.....good brake fluid should be changed annually because it absorbs water faster which is more often than most mechanics would do it. There are cheap tools that check water% in brake fluid if you all scientific about it. I for sure would (do) run good brake fluid in anything that even casually saw the track like Murray said; avoiding the risk of "exciting" fade is worth it

      Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.

      Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.

      The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good?
