I would like to put on a Nismo Z-tune style GT-R bonnet on a GT-T.

Already getting the East Bear front, but don't like the look of their bonnet.

What would I need to do this?

Hinges, locking mechanism, front wings?

im sure there are several threads covering what you would need to fit a gtr bonnet to a gtt, do a search, and you should get a more definitive answer.

im pretty sure that its just the hinges, mechanisms to keep the bonnet down/bonnet release, and the obvious gtr styled front bar or gtt bar with a top mole.

Yes Rush is right, there are a few threads covering this.

Here is the part numbers you will need to order from Nissan Japan ( order via Local Nissan Dealer and they will import) You will also need to pay for the parts up front before your dealer will order them most of the time.

I will also list the prices but dont quote me ,the price may have increased slightly since i purchased mine.

Nissan GTR OEM Part numbers

65400-AA400 - Hinge Assembly - RH - $81 Australian

65401-AA400 - Hinge Assembly - LH - $84 Australian

62550-AA400 - Stay - Hood Lock - $88 Australian

65601-AA400 - Male Assembly Hood Lock - $100 Australian

It will probably be easier to use a GTT front bar with a Nose attachment rather than going all out to modify a GTR bonnet ( i went all out, very expensive and long time - need much patience) If you choose to go a GTR bar and not modify it then you will need to change the guards which will also mean bigger rims to fill the space or spacers which i wouldn't recommend.

All the best with this.

David.

Sorry for not using the search function (usually the first to tell others they have to :P strange :P )

I'm going for the East Bear Spec 2 kit from Knight-Racer, but as stated I want a different bonnet.

The GTR bar from KR will fit the GTT wings.

NZMO thank you for the part numbers.

Is the locking mechanism easy to change or do you have to drill holes in the framework to fit the GTR lock?

And the GTR bonnet is just as width and has the same front line (where the headlights are mounted) as the GTT bonnet?

As far as i know that bonnet is exactly like the gtr, meaning the front of the bonnet doesnt fold down like the gtt. So it would be exactly like putting the east bear bonnet on, but...ztune lol.

If thats what your talking about.

Josh's ( JSAI ) their Z-Tune Bonnets for the GTT actually do fold down over the nose.

hey NZMO, are they impul side skirts?

yes they sure are, im not sure what ill be doing in the coming months with them as im going for GTR rear guards(which means ill also have to change my rear bar to a GTR bar to line up - hence my signature wanted to buy ) and Z-Tune front guards being GTR fitment i dont think ill be able to keep these skirts as ill have to go either Z-tune skirts and modify them not sure as yet.

For the locking mechanism there is not to much involved and as for the bonnet it does line up with the guards line and head lights.

Good luck with your project, i know its not going to be cheap.

Nice kit too , my front Bar is Top Secret GTR.

cheers,

David.

      Mate you saved be from dying in the Perth summer. AC wasn't changing direction and just going into diagnostics mode fixed it. You're a legend and I would shout you a beer if I could!

      Unfortunately effort gone to waste, you will have substantial issues with how the manifold and wastegate have been integrated. You would be so much better off with a modified stock manifold like this: https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25detexgatedmanifold/   OR literally just getting a off the shelf Sinco or 6Boost manifold as myself and others have mentioned.

      Yuck. But it's kinda the same principle, moving timing around to make car run bad but sound good.... I went for a more spirited tuning drive to iron out a few things. Car no longer stalls, and it loved to dip RPM low when you clutch in. After tuning this (and the 4-5 tables that HPTuners/LS1 OEM ECU wants for idle air correction) it's now behaving somewhat normal. All expected because there's a new TB, new Intake manifold and that new TB which is 102mm vs 78... has an entirely different IAC passage which is smaller because ????? Unfortunately at this point I went to make further fine tuning changes to avoid it flaring up, you know... _tuning_ the HPTuners dongle died. Well to be more accurate - The USB cable died in a fashion that anyone who has ever charged a phone will recognize. After the app demanding I resync it 50 or so times (which all 'succeeded' but all failed) the device does not want to sync and I've logged a ticket with support to see if it's fixable. US Support said it was a 'storage issue' but after removing the SD card inside it and formatting it/fixing it the issue does persist. Unfortunately usually the fix is "Turn in your old dongle and pay $700 for the upgraded one" it's cheaper because I get some free licence credits I unfortunately don't need. However I'm 10 minutes down the road from HP Tuners AUS/VCM so at least I won't need to post it, and logged a new ticket for support over here. Definitely drives different. My SOTP dyno believes it's probably making 310-320kw instead of the 280 before.  It scrambles for traction a little now whereas it previously different. It drives like a bigger cam car up top even though the cam is smaller, likely due to the cam not being advanced 6 degrees. The timing is deliberately low and the fuel is very rich so who knows if this will improve on the dyno. It may, imperceptably. Also funny is removing the pineapples definitely makes the car squat more and axle tramp less. So this behavior of having more top end, squatting more, and scrabbling for traction more makes me think = more power. But I could have just been sitting on the threshold of that kind of behavior before. Time will tell if my butt dyno is calibrated right. I need the exhaust leaks fixed before dyno tune for obvious AFR related reasons - I repositioned the pipes but I'm not confident it's fully sealed even if it is better. At least the car does drive around while I cannot tweak/tune it for now. And I have aircon again. medium success!
