I recently lost a headlight, front bar and fender from an r34 gtt coupe in an accident and was thinking of replacing them with a GTR bar, pumped guards front and back and a new CF bonnet.

Also considering a full respray of the car.

Obviously this won't be cheap, but anyone know what i'm looking at. Plus any decent shops around Sydney that could do it? I'd prefer to use genuine parts but wudn't mind some fake stuff either.

Full colour change will be $3-4k and upwards to $10K

Full panel change to GTR for new genuine parts would be at least $12-15k

It is pretty hard finding s/hand parts for a r34 GTR

I paided $1000 complete front bar del from Japan (approx $4k new), $600 s/hand bonnet

I had to buy all the front brackets and reo just to hold the front bar on over $1200 brand new

Dont use car mate, Jet speed is good but there product isnt really..

Body form at prestons .. search the forums and you'll see what i mean!

his contact (peter) is 87835446 the phone is rarely answered so call now and again ..

And the headlights are slightly different not much if you get yourself a Top secret front bar from jet speed get that fitter (the gtr one) or order a GTR look alike bar from DMD the image in QLD you can obviously mold more fibreglass to fit 34gtt lights.. a original gtr bar will be pricy and is plastic molded so you cant fibreglass with a good stick!

Hope all that helps.. Peter will also be able to put you into contact with his sprayer which does a good job too

I've called JetSpeed and Carmate in Sydney... anyone used them..

Do GTRs really have different headlights to the GTT, i know the bonnet is different..

The head lights are the same, but the rubber seal between the headlight and bonnet is slightly longer on the GTT one to suit its bonnet

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
