Hey guys, new here and im looking around for the "right" R34 but i come across the same thing so i may have to get what i can and change it to suit myself this is my problem

so far all the R34 GTT's i see (gtt is what i can afford) all have a different front bumpers to a GTR (what i would dream to own)

ill show what i mean in the phots below

Your Normal GTT Front

Your GTR front bumper -

Difference is the bonnet doesnt is shorter and the front kit comes up to the height of the bonnet, so if i get a different bonnet (actually want the same as below) and a front bumper could i swap them over? or is it not really possible?? any hints or tips would be awesome

yes its possible, someone has done that already on this forum. Only thing is the guards won't meet the bumper %100 so the bumper will hang about 10-15mm into the wheel arch but other than that it should be sweet as long as you get all the appropriate hinges and bonnet latch (if you get a GTR bonnet)

The bonnet in that pic is either nismo or nismo style, if you want to save time and money just get a GT-R style front bumper so you don't have to get a GT-R bonnet and everything will fit %100

hey mate, i "think" i might have what you're after

:rolleyes:

mate you are sick individual wanting to sell that...that is what i want ahh just look at them lines... the kit of GTR with the RWD ohhh damn... but thats more $$$ then i have ha, plus to make some personal touches, mate you are a owner of sex and i envy you! and the fact ill be living in melbourne means ill see that with out a doubt! so thanks for the offer tho

thats good that i know i can get the kit i want for a GTT is there any good place in melbourne area that sell decent ones does anyone know?

with reference to the photos,

the top one is a stock front bar but with an aftermarket front lip, so its a little nicer

secondly, you could always grab the east bear gtr style kit if you are after the gtr look

although, the gtr pic posted has a top secret front bar, a few places including jsai...(??) and musecret stock this front bar for the gtt, which i plan to get at some point.

Pretty sure that's a factory-option lip, though you can get them in the aftermarket too...

(These lips aren't all that common, but you do still see plenty of 'em)

So far i think all GTT skylines ive seen have that bonnet lip unless it has a kit on it (just looked at a few more to see if maybe it was my eyes playing tricks) im not a hater against it but the bonnet the meets at the lights and the front bar that goes to the top of the lights just look so much more well tough really. its like a skyline is a body builder.. you can have heaps of muscle - GTT but that GTR front is like being arny in terminator 2

eh? Lip I'm talking about is on the bottom of the bumper - nothing to do with the bonnet? (no bonnet lip at all in that top picture I can see)

oh okay thats not a problem in my eyes its the part in between the head lights

If you want that lip by the headlights all you have to do is buy a GTR style bonnet for GTT or just buy a GTR bonnet and get GTR hinges and bonnet lock assembly and swap it over. And then get a GTR bumper, but the bumper won't fit the exact shape of the GTT guards.. if that doesn't bother you then its pretty easy to do all that mentioned above.

OH okay sweet as i think ill take the easy option and get a gtr style bonnet for a gtt ha and get a gtr style front kit but now i know i can go it im sure i can at least talk to a company about getting the right size one or something

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
