i just put on 400r rear bar on my car

and noticed there is a bit of a gap between the body (under lights and skyline logo panel) and the top of the boykit

i put the stock bar back on and there isnt as much as the 400r bar

anyone got any pics of there 400r bars or have noticed this

yes i have a 400R front bar on mine. i also noticed the gap is slightly bigger between the bar and the head lights , but no one else has noticed yet.

you dont have to bend or cut your plates just use the middle holes of the plate and put in washers or some sort of spacer between the plate and the bar.

100% correct.

The 400r was a 99 car limited edition 33 GT-R w/ stroked 2.8 litre 400hp motor. Nismo never licensed this kit.

By definition they are all copies (but so what, it's a coolio kit!).

i recon the bar is too dam low. i wish i had of got a 2 piece one so i could take the bottom piece off. to late now but.

i have 18s on the car but it may seem high cause i havent lowered it yet. still stock suspension.

I think most of you have seen this:

One piece bar. 17" rims. Lowered HKS susp.

It is too damn low.

This explains why yours looks 'high' and mine looks low.

It's my impression that the 400r bar + skirts are all rather conservative looking.

The skirts have some vent holes that do fark all and the rear bar is just a bit heavier set so it matches a big exhaust better.

It's only the front bar that looks a little loony.

your right only the front 400r bar looks loney, rest of the kit is pretty ordinary thats why im trying to chase up impul side skirts and rear bar for mine (i think the impul kit looks more aggresive.

p.s when are you going to give them trailer blinkers the flick? or atleast change them to clear one like mine..lol

Merli

corect me if im wrong but u where at eastern creek for the last street meet weren't you?

what times did you end up running?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.

      The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.

      Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.

      @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
