you gotta get a GTR bonnet, they are SO DAMN light!!!

god knows how much a wrecker would want for one but id see in the mark of 1k or so *shrug*

also look for people whom have done rb26dett conversions, maybe they have the bonnet and grille lying around if they put it into a VL for example.

I have this done on my car. The bonnet was cut by a panel beater, fixed up and painted. They just cut straight across at the front.

I have seen some cars from japan come over with it cut. Done by a home job also. It was all jaggered and bit dangerous but worked fine. You can't see that it's been cut unless you open the bonnet.

As for the grill it costs about $400 or so from Nissan. Just keep looking out for a secondhand one on these forums. They do come up every now and then

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      For me at least the reason why it bothers me is because it's indicative of a deeper problem. And that will nag at me forever. Especially because I have tailpipe emissions testing + evap leak testing every 2 years.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      WELP. I went to the track, and I suppose it went okay because any time you can drive home is okay. You may notice the car is not on the circuit in this picture. It was about 35C day out in Benalla which means the track was approximately the surface of the sun, probably. Good things, car did not overheat but it _was_ warmer than when I had done track days in similar heat before, I think, I'm not sure - I can't quite remember. Coolant got to ~105 via the ECU after 20-30 minutes of belting it in said heat. Oil got up to 145C in one instance which is pretty crazy due to oil cooler. Pressures were fine. I seem to remember this not getting quite so high before the vents. More HMMMM'ing to be done. On the subject of HMMM'ing, can anyone identify the sounds in the video below, you will know which ones I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj3BkI2cbTc I included some 'normal' sound as a reference for the first minute or so. The microphone in this instance was where the license plate is. It stopped working later in the day which is why my "best example of a lap video (not produced)" had internal audio - Isn't hearable from inside the car. I don't mean the chirping of the un-bedded/badly bedded track brakes which you can only hear while braking... Thoughts, brains trust?

      Did anyone here buy the crashed N1 R32 GTR at auction?

      blame old mate Hawkins for that one  I remember way back in the day the japanese didn't want them either... they always assumed a race shell would be thrashed. We found a few when looking for an R34 GTR for the Whites to drive in Targa Tas back in 2002.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I know it's probably not going to cause any major engine issues. I just had a more generic concern that it's technically not running right (I guess this means the rpm is not sitting where it technically should be) Though the other thing is, it's that my steering wheel is shaking at 1,100 rpm at idle until it gets warm (seemed to happen after I tightened my alternator belt, will be testing the alternator soon).

      I mean, what's the concern here? Higher fuel consumption? FWIW my idle sits at around 800rpm or so as well. And yes, it runs fine, idles fine and there are no issues as far as I can tell. I don't quite see the problem.
