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.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
