I got a simple kit for my car and noticed it doesnt line up!.

First off is a front lip for an r34. Supplier's got me a non-turbo version (no clearance for standard bar intercooler duct) When i specifically asked and paid for a turbo one. He sez i can wait another month for him to get the right one in or i can easily get it modified to fit. Means more $$?..

Second is the side skirts, i put it up against my car and it seems too short. It doesnt sit in poperly and doesnt line up neat.

Last is the rear aprons that wraps around on the side quarters of the rear bar. This one is too long!.. it sticks out and leaves a half inch GAP!

Can all this be modified without a hasselhoff?. or should i try returning them.

Thanks

Is this a genuine kit or cheap copy.I got a genuine Uras kit for my S15 and it was perfect.I've seen copies that fit just like what you described.Funny thing is the money you save on buying a copy you end up paying to the panel beater.

this is such a common place buying flopped (copied) kit's that don't fit its happened to me and some other people i know. But hey thats why those companies supply full kits for $650,you get what you pay for hopefully you can find a decent panel beater that wont charge u an arm and a leg to fix good luck

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
