Was having a disagreement with a mate on the w/e, i said that a 34 GTR front bar would not fit onto a Gt-t as GTR has a wider wheelbase & fenders. He reckons it does and has seen it done before. Can anyone confirm that for me? Im after answers from someone who has experience in this or done it themselves and not just a guess or wot they've heard from a friend of a friend.

We both agree that a GTR/aftermarket bonnet will be required for a GTR front bar.

GTR34 front bar will not fit gt-t as it need the wider GTR guards. your mate was wrong.

GTR34 bonnet will fit gt-t along with GTR lock assembly and hinges. you do not need the whole GTR front end. Yes I have done it before.

Did you end up getting the Top secret bar front GTautostyle?

Cheers

Thanks for that Forged, i knew the GTR had wider fenders. As for the Top Secret, still doing some research. Went on the GT Autostyle site and only front bar listed for a 34 there looks like a C-West one, its somewot similar to a Top Secret tho. See link.

I might have to email them for more info on the Top Secret one ur talking bout.

I was also hoping i could find that bottom lip they have on the Top Secret GTR, no luck so far unless one is willing to pay an arm for the real CF one. If anyone hears of where i can get this bottom lip to fit a Gt-t please pm me.

Here's a pic just in case anyones wondering wot im talking about.

the 34 on their website has c-west side skirts but definitely gtr style front bar not c-west.

the bottom lip is the only omission there. i dont know anyone who sells those neither. forget carbon fibre tho way too costly. try bodyform or jetspeed, if you got the bar their could probably custom make a similar lip for you.

cheers

Those side skirts look like Bomex to me.

Cool so that is the Top Secret front bar, thought it looked very similar. Yea might hav to get that bottom lip custom made.

Reckon those side skirts go with that front bar? How bout the rear bar, any idea wot would go with the Top Secret front?

honestly I don't think those side skirts match the trust front bar at all.

I went with Impul side skirts. reckless garage in Japan had a GT-T with Trust front bar, Impul skirts and rear bar when they first came out, looked very neat. I can try to dig up some pics for ya.

also more pics of the setup when my car is done.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
