Where To Go For Pumped Guards; Any Contacts?

[ECR033]

Not sure if this is any help, but there was some pics of a yellow R34 GT-T with GTR guards going round on the forum a little while back.

I think the guy was trying to pull a shonky deal by selling it off as a GTR, but it was definately a GT-T.

The thread itself isn't relevant, but the pics might be helpful to give you a better idea on apperance and fitment etc - might be worth doing a search (or perhaps someone else remembers who can help out?)

iv always used the boys at Queen St for any pannel work, i know they pump guards, and roll them etc.... and i have found them to be reasonable, for a job i wanted done parramatta smash repairs quoted $2000 and needed the car for 2weeks, Queen St did it for $170 and took 10mins.

Genuine R34 front guards are very light. I have picked one up with one finger. I think I know someone who has a pair. Might still have them, dunno.

But.. your bonnet and front bar wont fit up to GTR guards and I think there is some issue with the radiator support panel because the GTR one is a few cm higher than the GTT one. Cheapest option would have to be pumping the stockers.

go for the CF guards sold by that trader racespec or something..

Thanks, will give them a call soon!

Ruk; the fronts need to be flared to accomodate wider rims up front and to stop any scrubbing that happens when the car is dropped

my front and rear guards are rolled inside. We fit 20's (with 255/30 tyres) on and it was barely scraping on full wheel lock at the front. I think this is more of a GTR "lookalike" case?

[satanic]

What type of 20s did you fit.... what were the offsets?

[satanic]

You got a photo of what your car looks like with 20s?

[shonen]

Stan it all depends on how wide you go.

You can fit 20s by just rolling the guards as long as you get the right offset and dont go too wide.

What size rims are you thinking of getting ?

My new rims are 18x9 front and 18x10 rear and the fronts have no problem whatsoever, even when I lower it, it should be fine. The rears however are a different story, at the current ride height it is not touching at all, even with passengers in the rear. But the actual rim itself sticks out past the guards so I plan on getting them pumped when I respray the car in a few months time.

So id say determine your rim size and offset first and go from there, you may only need to do the rears.

As Adam said before, GTR front guards will be a hassle as you may have issues with the front bar etc and also the way the bonnet lines up. If thats the case you will not only need the GTR guards, but front bar and GTR bonnet. Unless you plan to go wider than 9 inches at the front than dont bother
