Hey all, I was just after some experienced input from anyone who has fitted a radiator 'cooling' panel to their car. I'm using the stock bonnet, so it would give no cooling benefits on my car, I'm purely after the cosmetic benefits. Problem is, I've got a Top Secret front bar, and I'm not sure how this would affect fitment? I've never actually looked at how/where the stock front bar sits on an R34 as my car came with the Top Secret kit, but I notice aftermarket cooling panels specify that they are for the front bumper. However, surely things such as the bonnet lever/catch etc. would all still be in the same place? The Top Secret bar bolts on using two tabs on each side of the top grill, right next to the headlights. As this is where the stock bonnet sits, I can't imagine the stock bumper would be too much different? So, my question is, where do these aftermarket cooling panels sit that makes them bumper-specific? Would it be possible to modify one to suit my front bar or not? Given I'm after looks, I'd obviously want it to fit quite well. Would I be better off making my own? Cheers, Martin.

Hey Guys, So I've searched the forums for similar issues and haven't been able to find much information. I'm currently trying to fit a set of 18x11 +20 Concave Concepts to my Gts-t and have purchased and installed a set of Front Upper Camber Arms to try and pull them in a little as they poke on my Gts-t guards quite a bit as pictured. Although since doing so have run into a few problems. 1. After adjusting the camber it looks as though the wheel sits further back inside the arch towards the back of the car and is now rubbing quite heavily against the guard/sideskirt mount when turning. (I'm thinking caster arms will fix this as I assume the caster is all out of whack) 2. After adjusting the camber the inside of the wheel looks like its sitting over the coilover (above the lock collar for the base and below the lock collar for the spring) and over hard bumps the coilover compresses and hits against the inside of the rim. 3. At full lock, or close to, the inside of the rim rubs up against the upper wishbone and makes a horrid grinding noise (I have since notched out the wishbone but apparently not enough because it still does it) I tried fitting a set of 7mm slip on spacers to fix the issue but they pull the wheels out a little too far and create all kinda of rubbing issues on the guards. Has anybody had any similar issues, or have any constructive suggestions/can help at all? Thanks.

Been on here a while, don't post very often, but lurk around. I currently have Rays Engineering CE28N's on my 34GTT, which I believe are 18x8 and 18x9 unsure of offset. I am thinking about buying new wheels but I am unsure of what offset to fit, and if I can fit under the guards. I am thinking something a great deal more aggressive Keeping in mind my guards have already been rolled, in Japan. Was thinking of getting these Rota Grid-R's in these offsets, but perhaps there is a better suited offset on the website. 18x9.5 +18 front 18x10 +15 rears http://www.rotawheels.com.au/wheels/rota-grid-r Would like similar fitment to this, maybe perhaps slightly less aggressive. Nissan Skyline R32 fitted with ROTA Grid R 18 x 10, 5x114.3 +15 Cosmic Blue My question is how far can I push the offsets? Also will 18x10's fit under my R34GTT, or is that pushing it too far for the rear, and perhaps 9.5 is too much on the front also? Cheers in advance, Michael.

So I need suggestions on HSD and BC coilovers. Been told by many that these are out of the best coilovers to buy, so, just wondering what are people's thoughts/experiences with these. Also, for the fitment on R34s, I've been told by a couple of people that it's much more difficult than doing it for a 32/33, and that you have to remove the rear seats an parcel shelf.. Whose done it before themselves? Just wondering what's the difference, very curious!
