Anyone know if & where i can get this front bar for a 34 Gt-t? Im pretty sure its a Top Secret bar. Also looking for sides & rear bars to suit, doesn't have to be Top Secret as long as the lines go together. All suggestions with pics welcome.

lol. it has a top secret price tag too, so I say start saving those pennies. :( !! (and of course the obvious point, it wont fit a GTT).

DOH!! Ive seen a similarish front bar on Gt-t's, not quite as big in the FMIC area and has slightly different sides.

So no one out there has made a Top Secret copy for a Gt-t?

hahaha that yellow 34 is Frankies old car !!

geez thats a good lookin car! Hahah!

g_force, my top secret copy front bar was supplied, painted and fitted by Carmate out at Cabrammatta on Liverpool Rd (Hume Hwy) many many years ago. i think it cost around $400 supplied, sprayed and fitted.

a few qualms,

-they had put on this farking uber ugly rice mesh. reminded me of alot of Cyber kits on CRX's. that came off quite quickly.

-the lip didnt swoop low enough, whilst it wasn't as aesthetically pleasing it was quite functional going up and down gutters, speed humps etc.

-its fibreglass, as most kits are, so it was flimsy and as such air went everywhere you didnt want it to go. ie. into the front mount.

if i were to do a GTT again, id get an R34 GTR front bar kit from East Bear or an Impul front bar. i remember wanting to copy/buy/pillage another GTT owner who had an Impul front bar on his. looks great.

Also, Ed on this forum had a GTT with a top secret front bar similar to mine, whilst it was abit crooked it swooped abit lower than mine.

Fark it, save your money and get the real deal. R34 GTR. as low as $55K on carsales these days and you have the Yen at friggin 95YEN to the aussie dollar!!! time to go long Japanese.*

Thanks for the input frank but the front bar u had on the yellow Gt-t is not the exact one im after, its only similar in sum aspects to the real Top Secret bar on the GTR. See below. If only sumone had made the same version of this but for the Gt-t.

I will have a search for the GTR & Impul one from East Bear, not sure wot they look like.

I also saw a 34 VSpec with a 400R kit the other day, looked bomb... Why do they have all the sic kits for GTR's but so few for the Gt-t's..... :nyaanyaa:

Blitz had a look on Just Jap, no kits available there for R34.

yeah thats why its called a "copy" :P bah, close enough!!! :P

because GTR > GTT !!! :P

im guessing the japs dont bother with the GTT because the GTR is this shizzle mynizzle.

where there is a market, there is money :)

theres a few out there...

Thomas (shonen) has a kit forsale for the GTT.... he also has alot of other "ricey" things forsale for the GTT aswell i think ;) ;) :ninja:

Sumone else made a suggestion, get a front bar that is similar to wot u want n get a frp place to modify it to look like a Top Secret bar. Anyone done this before and got a rough clue how expensive it is for custom front bars?

im guessing anything thats custom and related to fibreglass will be fairly manually intensive and hence expensive? unless you get some kind of deal with whoever's going to do it for you!

Thanks frank, the Impul is not really my taste. I like the massive hole for the FMIC that the Top Secret bar has & simple hole/slot at the sides for cold air intake.

Cheers anyway.

      Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.

      Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?

      R34 N/a And R34 Turbo (gtt) Transmission.. Uh, Problem.

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t 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 when selected . But nothing when in  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. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man

      Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
