and perhaps an eastbear bonnet mole to fill the "gap" between the gtr bonnet and gtt front bar.

if you want it done right you have to do the full front conversion, a r34 gtr bonnet will only fit on to a r34 gtr front bumper, and that will only fit on to r34 gtr fenders. this is because the the gtr bonnet is shorter than the gtt, and gtr fenders are wider than gtt. you might be better off getting the east bear kit, this is a r34 gtr bodykit made for the r34 gtt so fits perfect. there is loads on this topic on uk forums, and everyone i have talked to has had to do the full front conversion on the gtt. i could be wrong but im sure im not, hope this helps lads cheers marty.

thats crap it mates to the gaurds fine, it is only the fill panel at the front see pics.

all these are GTT's

Dunno, never quite looks right to me? :)

yeh i agree that r34 gtt looks a lil weird, but mine will look nothing like that......for starters i have a R34 GTR Front bar thats been made to fit a GTT, and i dont really like the eastbear designs and they cost a fortune aswell.

Dunno, never quite looks right to me? :P

yeah that definately looks ass, but whoever did it has gone the wrong way about it..... that bar is gtr for starters and looks shit. If you are gonna do it you really want to do it propery not boro spec like this example.

R34 GTR hinges are approx $70-80 each

Will need 4 8mm nuts to fit bonnet

Will also need a GTR bonnet catch $70-80

May also need GTR bonnet catch support $70

Prices will vary, depends if you get trade price or not

I found all this out fitting a R34 GTR front to my Stagea

I tried to use R34 GTT parts first, but they did not work.

I have just fitted an R34 GTR bonnet and the above mentioned parts and prices are correct, only took an hour and a half to fit. The only tricky part is that the lower hole on the GTR bonnet catch support needs to be drilled about 10mm higher to line up with its mounting hole. East bear sell two types of moles (fills gap between GTR bonnet and bumper) one for std bumper and one for Aero bumper.

So to be perfectly clear, if you just want a GTR bonnet, you do NOT need GTR front bumper and gaurds.

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
