Hi all, hoping some of you guys can answer a few questions for me.

Firstly, has anyone found a reputable source for bodykits for 4 door R32 GTS-T's? Specifically Vertex style kits?

Secondly, has anyone tryed to fit R33 GTR factory wheels to their 4 door? I know the wheels physically fit, but I would like to confirm how much work in terms of guard flaring/rolling would be realistically required to accomodate these wheels on the 4 door - assuming the car is lowered 1.5-2 inches all around.

Thirdly, R32 GTR rear seats in a 4 door - possible or impossible?

Cheers,

Nick :rofl:

No worries Blitzeh :P

Try G-Force in syd, Avi Prasad is the bloke's name who runs it I think. He's on this forum, and I think he was looking at becoming a sponsor, dunno how he went with it. His website is http://www.jap.com.au in any case. The kits fit pretty well from the ones I've seen, and his prices are pretty damn good. The website has the coupe kit listed only, but I remember him mentioning the 4 door kit was in development last year, so it might be ready now.

Roll and flare of guards required in the front, might be able to get away with a roll only in the back. 4 Doors look tougher with flares all around anyways.

Possible, I've seen a few cars with em done... however the mounting positions don't line up exactly the same, some customising is required, and shutting the door is a little harder.

All possible... A group called Panteraftermarket (www.pantheraftermarket.com) do Vertex bodykits for 4 doors. Or Adrenalin Autosports as well, located in Sydney and Queensland respectively.

R33 GTR wheels will fit. Depending on your ride height, you might have to roll the guards, namely the rears. I had too.

And I also have an R32 GTR seat in my car... fit like a glove.

p.s Are you stalking me?? haha :rofl:

what are the offsets of R33 gtr rims?

ive got 18x9 +30 on the back of mine and they fit without any modifications. and my car is quite low... can just see the top of the tyre under the guard.

are the leather gts-t seats different to other gts-t and gtr seats? cos i tried puttin my mates leather seats in my car (cos mine where out and people needed to be driven places) and the backrest was too short

how do u roll the rears when theres no real guard to roll? theres like 2cm of panel that goers around the wheel

I had it done from group in richmond, just normal guard rolling machine. $50 a corner. It's not all the way round, they just rolled where the tyre would sit and a small surrounding area.

Heres an update for you all.

I have fitted R33 GTR wheels without a problem, mind you the car isnt lowered as yet, however the wheels have advan 225's which are undersized for these rims on a GTR, but work well for this application.

GTST: I had R32 GTR wheels on the car previously and noticed a bit of rub on turn, but havent as yet with the 33 GTR wheels - odd.

For some reason im really keen on the 4 door now and its my new project - so the hunt for parts continues!

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.

      Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
