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

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
