Any chance you can get "inspired" to put 19inch LMGT4 in Silver, always wanted to know how it will look on a BB GTR.

From memory, I believe I already have some pics of silver 19" LMGT4 on bayside blue GTR.

Will have a hunt around tonight and post them up for you.

Hi all, its just an edited photo. I wanted to see how it looked if I did go down the path.

Playing with ideas at the moment.

DO IT! haha...

thats basically what mine will look like when im done, except for TE37sl's instead of LMGT4s... oh and yellow of course....

you dont want to edit it to yellow so i can get a feel for it ha? i might try later tonight when i get home

Agree BB would look great with 19" LMGTs but I have seen a few BB 34s that are a bit flat, or have mis-matching panels - look again closely at the Mines' one above; differences between tail lights and boot / bumper... the paint really needs to have been looked after (not faded; regularly polished and a good wax used) to give its best IMO. Then, it really stands out.

I know what you mean. A few of the BB ones I saw while shopping had actually lost their depth of colour a bit. They were not as vibrant as they should be.

I've previously taken notice of the common BB colour mismatch on the rear (as described above). I have always thought this was beacuse the paint sets differently on the bumper and taillights (plastic) to the bootlid (metal). Mainly visible in photos or from certain angles / light.

If you get a sec, please clarify - are you saying that the paint on the mines one above looks like it has not been given the love it deserves?

Cheers mate.

Haha. If that middle pic I posted is anything to go by, and with my nitpicking cap on, that paint match is atrocious. Can't say that I wouldnt have that car though!

I seem to remember there being a thread floating around SAU or maybe another forum a while back when someone was inspecting a BB BNR34, suspected rear damage due to paint not matching at the rear; pics were posted, vendor got involved, accusations were made that pics were doctored, got to the point where someone actually used image-doctor detection software to tell if the image was shopped... All this bru-haha when it's quite possible that the paint just came that way from the Nissan factory??

Thanks mate. Was curious because thats how mine is, I didnt know if it was because the paint had been mistreated at some point in its life for an extended period of time. My bootlid is slightly darker than the rest of my rear.

Now that is just pure sex

Glad you like them.

Terry_GT-R34's got me thinking now though. Would be fantastic to see a whole group of bayside blue GTR's together in some pro photos. I've never seen that before.

We should also ask Chris (Chris06-R) to join us, his R34 GTR is also BSB and very photogenic. That would make it an even 5.

Anyway, while looking for those pics for mclarenf1, I found this BSB GTR dumped on TE37's in my pic stash too, thought i'd share.

Correct. I did see the rear diffuser had been removed from the car.

Wouldnt want to crack that. Many $$$$ gone.

There is a guy called Stephen on here that actually owns a BSB 34 GTR with white TE37's on it - looks immaculate.

Had to dig up the pics for completions sake.

Amazing car, still in original condition apart from the rims.

It is crazy, how a set of rims can completely change the look of a car.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
