Decided not to noob up and start a new thread with the same questions and info.

From my ride thread.

Bodykit is ordered. Im awaiting its delivery any day. I got the bomex front bar, a modified bomex rear bar for 4 door application, and a set of modified gtr skirts. Bonnet arrives today - carbon of course.

Once its painted and fitted that may do me for a while. See how the bug hits me. im already keen on changing tail lights for the gtr version thats for sure so im sure knowing me it'll be a matter of time before it gets out of hand...

Here's my understanding of bodykits for r34 and inparticular 4 door versions from my researchings over the last few weeks...

East bear - available at a very high price but a solid look, very boxed but still agressive.

Uras - its common as hell IMO and is basically the kit available on most rides out there, simply skirting off the bumper, is not custom enough for me. if you can buy it on ebay its hardly a one off...

Bomex/C West - bit of a blurry line as to whats what but in the 4 door only the front bars available so far. Im not a fan of the snow plow look so i started searching suppliers to see what else is around in oz.

Ordering my kit:

As i understand it the front bars on the 4 door gtt are no different to any other 2 door gtt, so the bomex was an easy choice for me. As was the carbon bonnet. They checked into it to be sure and confirmed the front bars and bonnet are same.

The side skirts require stretching on my guys advice and he just so happened to have a set of stretched r34 gtr ones available. Hopefully they turn out nicely.

The rear bar of course being different was chopped and adjusted to suit and again in my case was attainable as it was lying around almost done. Mines been symettrically matched and the flutes removed so it could be an interesting look.

Hopefully this will start a wave of kits based on the 4 door model r34 but who knows it could all go pear shaped and i end up with some lines that dont mesh right, or a kit thats just not suited to the shape of the 4 door looking forced or wrapped into position.

Im a big fan of the 4 door so far as its a commonly overlooked model, thats IMO got styling appeal all of its own... Fingers crossed it works out. The wheels are my next pondering, im just not sure how they'll end up lookin after it's done...

definately a fan of the c west lines and the sleek look of it for sure. I love the jdl kit too, but the full one was over done for me.

Always annoying though theres never much around in 4 door and there's no shortage of hot combo's for the 2 door. Thats a good thing for a guy like me though.

They have all of these photos on their website, but there is something about them that looks so photoshopped.

im just about to change my kit from cwest front, sides and bomex rear to do luck front, bomex sides and rear.. IMHO its one of the better looking kits out there, ive never really been into bit kits on 34's but never really appreciated the standard kits either... i think you can never go wrong with bomex sides and rear but do luck front bar gives 34 great presence.

although u can forget about speed bumps, steep driveways, most shopping centres, maccas, and hit and runs on small children... cause the ground clearance aint exactly optimal.

ive always had a soft spot for the do-luck kit, the full kit is quite hot, but never mind hit and runs, that front bar will swallow some small children whole!

It is Top Secret, I have one. Check my Garage in profile.

I got mine from PSI parts, It was a good fit, not great. I run carbon cannards and there was not enough of a lip underneath to mount them optimally.

ah thats good then, i was planning on getting my Impul sides from psiparts as well, would be nice to get my whole kit from them.

anybody got any recommendations on rear bumper? i wasnt too into the Impul rear, im more into a stock gt-r look rear bumper, but the only company that makes something like that is east bear and im not really able to pay their prices...

    • Pretty simple question. I was about to put the transmission back in and thought I pretty much had it lined up when I noticed it seems like the pressure plate isn't flat. I was pretty careful when undoing the bolts both during initial disassembly for cleaning and when torquing them up for installation so this is pretty discouraging. I'm not sure if I accidentally bumped the pressure plate with the input shaft and bent it somehow or if it just showed up this way. Is it possible that there's just something obvious I'm not doing correctly? I'm pretty sure I was extremely careful to make sure the friction discs were seated correctly in the hub, everything lined up, flywheel torqued according to sequence, the little springs all sitting correctly in their seats, etc.  What's the play here? Do I jump straight to a new pressure plate?
    • OK. I can see that being the case. But if you live in the land of "only switching between 4.08, 4.11, 4.36" like most Skyliners, then you never encounter it. Now I perhaps understand why the crownwheel is thicker on some of the smaller numerical ratio diffs. The two stubs being the same (unequal) lengths and just swapped side to side between the different cases is a new one to me. I'm hating Nissan R200s more than ever now.
    • Reason I say this is I have seen broken ones, in drift, drag and even behind a stock Z. I do appreciate most of the time its the synchro's that go.   Trouble with quoting HP is it doesn't really say how strong the box is.  I've not seen many CD00X box's make it past a mid 9(150mph) I have seen about a stock R33 RB25 box's run a 9 too, they all go boom at some point though.   Another clue is they make gearsets for CD00X box's too, wouldn't be a market if they didn't break or have a limit people are going past.   I totally agree it is a strong box, just have to weigh up the true total cost of the conversion vs rebuilding with a good gearset. 
    • What makes you say CD009 boxes are not as strong as you would think? I've always been told the last revision (CD00A) is good for 1000whp and I have no issue's believing it when comparing one side by side with an RB25 box. Makes them look tiny. 
    • I picked up an open Center with shafts. I was told the Open shafts will fit a mechanical LSD and looking at them. I think they will work. Will update
