Hey guys

Someone was kind enough to back into my car the other day :D so now i need to get some things fixed.

i have already pick out a front bar (do luck) but i was also thinking about getting some wide gaurds done.

just wanted to know what everyone thought and here from some people who have gone through the trouble of doing it.

is it worh it? how hard was it? adn what did it look like (PICSOBARN!)

This goes for both front and rear ones, do the wider GTR rear guards/quaters fit on the GTS-T

Thank for your help in advance.

Hi

Yes the GTR fronts will fit a GTST, bonnet and grill will aswel, you will have to play around with the front bar though to make it look perfect. Or just get an R32 GTR front bar aswel while you're at it which would be the best option IMO

For the rears - that will cost some big money for the result, i dont think its worth it, but run around and get some quotes, they may be in your budget

My Silvia is in getting it's widebody fitted.. and he had a GTS-T in there that had been crashed in the rear.

The guy found a slightly damaged R32 GTR Rear cut which he basically got for nothing.. (this is NZ :P ) and has now had the whole thing stiched on.. old skin removed and the GTR one put on. It was done in a couple of days.

All up though by the time you include the painting etc, your looking a few thousand just for the rear guards..

front guards will fit but you need GTR indicators as well

just dont get fibreglass guards

they always look shit compared to genuine metal ones

i did the rear quaters on my car

its not a massive job compared to some other shit people do.

only issue you will have is the inner guards will be too short

and the fuel filler wont line up properly

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
