hi peoples im new..

the body kit on the r34 is a bomex style body kit.. im seraching for the same body kit(have any idea where i can get it and the cost?).. and also searching for some fenders and hoods?

It's not Bomex, this is Bomex:

Yeah its definately not a Bomex, like dark said its a gtr kit for a gtt. Try carmate if you want a bomex kit got price on the site so you can esitmate how much itll set you back. I prefer the gtr kit over the bomex makes the front look tough but not overdone.

ive seen a few bodies like this. its also on the HKS RB28 GTR found issue 59 of High performance imports

its an east bear gtt kit, the bonnet looks to be the east bear carbon fibre one which looks like the gtr one except fitting gtt hinges and latch. $1500 from power play.

front bar again is an east bear item which looks like the gtr bumper but designed to blend with gtt's narrower guards.

east bear lower lip is around $500 from power play.

not sure of those side skirts dont think east bear makes them.

Yup definately not a Bomex..I have been looking at this kit as well and found this in Japan:

Was quoted around $1500 landed in OZ! probably still cheaper than the East Bear Kit that powerplay are selling...

is that $1500 landed for just that front bar or a complete kit? im guessing just the front bar but wanted to make sure

its an east bear gtt kit, the bonnet looks to be the east bear carbon fibre one which looks like the gtr one except fitting gtt hinges and latch. $1500 from power play.

front bar again is an east bear item which looks like the gtr bumper but designed to blend with gtt's narrower guards.

east bear lower lip is around $500 from power play.

not sure of those side skirts dont think east bear makes them.

OK to clarify a few points. The Front Bar on that car is not an East Bear item. East Bear make the OEM GTR Front Bar. The bar on that car is a NISMO GTR Bar. As you will see in the images below, I have highlighted the areas of the NISMO bar which differentiate it from the OEM one.

NISMO GTR bar

Now as you will see, the bar on the Black GTT is the same as the NISMO Bar. I don't know how they managed to fit it but I can only imagine that it was either copied or modified to fit. The bonnet is either an East Bear item or a Chinese/Taiwanese one however it isnt clear.

The side skirts also look like factory GTR skirts with the NISMO Under Skirt add on's fitted. There is a GTR rear wing there too so I imagine that someone has spent A LOT of money buying genuine GTR and NISMO GTR parts and modifying them to fit the GTT.

i have the East Bear gtr bar on my GTT - will post pics when i get home. Yes, as tosh pointed out, it's not the one East Bear sells... and looks like the person has squeezed on a genuine Nismo one... guards don't really match too well

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
