Yes they will fit, but no they won't fit properly. If you want a GTR front bar, you're going to need the gaurds, indicators and probably reinforcement bar

You should do a search next time mate. It's been covered quite a few times now.

you'll get a noticable gap (to skyline owners anyways) in front of your headlights where the bar flexes the most so that the sides can mount up.

you can buy fibreglass GTR bar lookalikes that have been custom moulded to fit the narrower GTS/GTSt/GTS4 front, and don't leave gaps.

Or you could upgrade your guards and bumper support to genuine GTR items and also get a flush fit using a genuine GTR bumper.

yer man hey will fir as i put one on my gts4 4 door fit good bus as stated does flare out on side to fix that hardly noticable problem iver just pulled out the guard a bit util they matched the gtr bar then just drilled a new hole for it to stay there but if u dont want to go that far. just putting on the gtr bar makes ur ride look MEAN!!!

also looks good if u mould the bottom lip together as i have done enjoy

so the r32 GTR and GTS4 have the same front reinforcement?

No. The GTS4 has the same front reinforcement as a GTSt. The GTR front reinforcement bar is wider, for a wider bumper, which fits up to wider guards. If you put a factory GTR bumper on a GTSt or GTS4, you'll need to flex it to fit it on. I've never seen someone who's mounted a factory GTR bumper on thei GTSt or GTS4 or GTS that hasn't had visibile flexing and gaps.

here's mine sporting a GTR front bumper with the N1 "speed holes"... fits perfect, but its a fibreglass copy that's been modified to fit up perfectly on a GTS/GTSt or in my case a GTS4 bumper support.

This is how my GTR bar fits on my GTS-t with stock guards

Obviously not a perfect fit, but good enough for me. Notice how it bows up near the outside of the headlights, and then drops down a little near the inside of the headlights.

I have a GTR reo too

The copy GTR bars do fit well (most of them) but the problem is, they have the stock sized cooler/radiator "mouth". The GTR one is much bigger.

Edited by salad

Here is my copy bar, the mouth lines up with the n1 cutout imprints, and the same point on the headlight as your genuine one.

Pity that the gtr original bar without bottom lip that was on the car when i bought it was absolutely trashed and un-rescuable.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
