I have a GTT with a GTR Front bar. Partial Kits are OK. anyone who puts a GTR badge on a GTT is gheye tho!

The last thing I want is to lose to someone and have them scoot off all smug thinking they just beat a GTR - Fat fu(kin' chance

I was thinking of a GTR bonnet, but for the same reason stated above, I think I'd rather have a GTT bonnet fabricated from Al if I get it done...

Just my 2c

Of course they can. And we can think it's as lame as we like. You don't like it? Tough.

My friend with a v8 commodore raced a N/A R33 GTS with a GTR kit and badges, full look alike besides the flared guards. I agree that GTR kits are ok, but GTR badges are a big no no I think. My friend got all half c*cked thinking he'd beaten a GTR and went bragging to all his friends about how shit skylines are etc, despite many of us trying to tell him it was a non turbo model.

But then again on that note, if they dont know if theyre racing a real or fake GTR, in my opinion, they dont deserve to know....

my opinion for what its worth , i have a saying " if your happy im happy for you " means if they want to put ford badges on their cars and thier happy goodluck , my personal view on the matter is irrelevant . to be fair i have seen cars with GTR/Badges and body kits and the majority wernt P platers , in the end of day its still Line and thats what counts !

Badges are a real no no. If you know what you are talking about its not that hard to pick a fake one unless they have gone to great trouble to change front and rear guards. I have a GTR style front with m-spec side skirts and a gracer rear wing. I really don't like series one front bars on the 33 but that just me. I would never dream of sticking a GTR badge on it though. Whats the point? Its not a GTR, its a nice Skyline GTST!

    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
