well how much is different? -

different body kit

different rims

engine mods?

exhaust mods?

interior changes don't matter.

if you really wanted one, it wouldn't be any different than bringing in a modded R34, just gotta find standard parts. Actually come to think of it, i don't think the kit may matter too much... as long as it's not too low, spoiler too high, etc...... hmmm...

TK R34 has non standard suspension parts (not just the strut), engine parts (boltons, but still), seats (big ADR no no), underbody diffusers etc.

I think the first reply says it all. Too much hassle. I don't forsee any compliancer who knows what a TK R34 GTt is to agree readily.

Are they the only modifications to TK R34 GTTs?

My mate just bought one today (picks up tomorrow) and I've been trying to find info about the TK versions with no luck.

Pics of it are here http://ucn.dealernet.com.au/photo.php?ucni...515F063F3A58B2F

a few of em came in under the old CPA import scheme... I remember back in 2002 or something HPI had a writeup on a black TK R34 GTt.

I almost bought a R34 GTT TK edition! but it was $42K!!! So i just got a 33 GTSt back in the early 'noughties'

Except from the bodykit and built in SatNav kit, i wasnt aware of any other mechanical differences... But, my point is that the importer was able to comply them!

of course you can dude! here is what you do:

Give me your money - i'll buy it and drive it here in japan for the year it takes to be able to import it under the personal import scheme and then i'll stick it on a boat and it's all yours! no compliance costs and you get my personal guarantee that i won't drift it or take it to track days or gymkahnas! :(:P

As long as the engine modifications aren't severe then yes it can be done. We have imported several modified R33's and R34's because we have access to stock parts which can be swapped for the pits and compliancing and then swapped back afterwards. Car's with bodykits (not over the top of course), interior mods etc. will pass compliancing and the pits. We sent a R33 with a FMIC fitted over the pits a while back and passed no worries. If you would like me to go into more detail or have any questions just ask.

Cheers,

hey,

I saw a black one with a tommi kit and other associated tommi stuff all over it for sale at phantom motorsports in brisbane not long ago, i recall seing an odd build plate in the engine bay, but I only looked briefly so I can't be sure, might've been something else

mark.

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
