i just brought an r34 gt and i want to put the gtt tail lights in instead but wondering if possible

i popped open the boot and noticed it is very easy to take out.... but i dont want to buy the tail lights and fnd out they dont fit!!!!!!

and aslo wif my car its 2001 model and ive noticed my head lights is diffrent to most of the other sedans. ther insides are black and it looks alot better. i cheked on ebay there gtt head ligths and ther $550 each light! clearly worth it tho.... again will they fit it?????

thanks guys

From a 4 door Gt-t to your 4 door Gt i don't think there is a problem, but if you wanted to take them from a 2 door Gt-t then no you wont be able to fit them without serious modification as the 2 door's tail lights have the indicators in the center of the brake lights making the whole light section smaller than that of the 4 door's setup

Hope this helps somewhat

thanks steve... are you positive on that tho???? coz the actual framing of the tail lights look about the same... but the gt 4 doors have blinkers at the bottom and the gtt just looks like it has bigger lights... dont no.. confused...

From what i can tell the whole tail light piece on the 4 door is larger because of the indicator, take a look at the back of a 4 door and a 2 door, there seems to be quite a difference in size, i had a quick search but didnt come up with a lot, but it was only quick, so mayb have another look around the forums, though i do still think that the 2 door lights are smaller

check out this thread " http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/t1...p;hl=R34+lights "

all pictures of R34s, you should be able to see the difference in there, some nice pics.

:D

would look nice tho if u can sum how get it done hate the 4dr rear liights

thats what i was thinking...

im gonna go crazy im looking at my cars taillights and i rekon it will fit the gtt tailights

coz the gtt lights look bigger.. or at least one of them.

does anyone know for certain if its impossible to fit if i just brought it and tryed to fit it on???????????

They definately won't fit without modding. If you have the $ to spend then anything is possible, but I personally wouldn't bother...check out the differences below.

ahh perfect picture mate..... thanks for the help!

cheers bud

i duno if its the same as r32 4door

but for r32's, you can get the coupe bootlid, taillights& rear bar and it will fit up without much modification.

maybe this is the same process for r34 as well?

see if u borrow a coupe boot and trial fit it.

R34 coupe and sedan bootlids are different as well, so no go there...

Hey buddy, i know it has been 15 years since the last time you guys chatted here, i hope someone still looking, but im wondering how" godzila.3334" on Instagram made that possible?

Im a young teenager with a lot of dreams, no need for an answer but just some questions are in my head+im planning to buy an ER34 sedan so im searching for some info before i purchase the expensive peaxe of art and then regret it later.

Hey mate, just wanted to check up and see how you went; i'm also thinking of buying an ER34 sedan, but not a huge fan of the reverse lights. How'd you go? End up buying an ER34? 

Keen to hopefully hear back from you :)

There is a kit that’s sold buy a company called b.a.r. Boone ae ro in Malaysia that makes the wide rear quarters with the coupe tail lights. There’s also a few guys that made custom taillights by combining the 2 sets together a lot of custom work and wiring plus getting a East bear gtr style bumper with the rear fog and reverse light cut out. Also a company in Japan called okubo factory makes legit r34 gtr 4 doors they swap everything from a gtr to a sedan metal oem quarter’s and couple tails and complete front end with the interior as well mfd pedals cluster steering wheel, center console and seats and floor mats rear trunk bracing, battery in the trunk, engine and trans and suspension. I know all this cause I’m obsessed with doing a conversion myself follow me on instagram justin__r34 to see what I’ve done so far on mine I’m using a er34 and have done the trunk and the interior stuff next is front end then rear and motor and trans plan on going awd as well.

    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
    • OK, so regardless of whether you did Step 1 - Spill Step 2 - Trans pan removal Step 3 - TCM removal we are on to the clean and refill. First, have a good look at the oil pan. While you might see dirty oil and some carbony build up (I did), what you don't want to see is any metal particles on the magnets, or sparkles in the oil (thankfully not). Give it all a good clean, particularly the magnets, and put the new gasket on if you have one (or, just cross your fingers) Replacement of the Valve body (if you removed it) is the "reverse of assembly". Thread the electrical socket back up through the trans case, hold the valve body up and put in the bolts you removed, with the correct lengths in the correct locations Torque for the bolts in 8Nm only so I hope you have that torque wrench handy (it feels really loose). Plug the output speed sensor back in and clip the wiring into the 2 clips, replace the spring clip on the TCM socket and plug it back into the car loom. For the pan, the workshop manual states the following order: Again, the torque is 8Nm only.
    • One other thing to mention from my car before we reassemble and refill. Per that earlier diagram,   There should be 2x B length (40mm) and 6x C length (54mm). So I had incorrectly removed one extra bolt, which I assume was 40mm, but even so I have 4x B and 5x C.  Either, the factory made an assembly error (very unlikely), or someone had been in there before me. I vote for the latter because the TCM part number doesn't match my build date, I suspect the TCM was changed under warranty. This indeed led to much unbolting, rebolting, checking, measuring and swearing under the car.... In the end I left out 1x B bolt and put in a 54mm M6 bolt I already had to make sure it was all correct
    • A couple of notes about the TCM. Firstly, it is integrated into the valve body. If you need to replace the TCM for any reason you are following the procedure above The seppos say these fail all the time. I haven't seen or heard of one on here or locally, but that doesn't mean it can't happen. Finally, Ecutek are now offering tuning for the 7 speed TCM. It is basically like ECU tuning in that you have to buy a license for the computer, and then known parameters can be reset. This is all very new and at the moment they are focussing on more aggressive gear holding in sports or sports+ mode, 2 gear launches for drag racing etc. It doesn't seem to affect shift speed like you can on some transmissions. Importantly for me, by having controllable shift points you can now raise the shift point as well as the ECU rev limit, together allowing it to rev a little higher when that is useful. In manual mode, my car shifts up automatically regardless of what I do which is good (because I don't have to worry about it) but bad (because I can't choose to rev a little higher when convenient).  TCMs can only be tuned from late 2016 onwards, and mine is apparently not one of those although the car build date was August 2016 (presumably a batch of ADM cars were done together, so this will probably be the situation for most ADM cars). No idea about JDM cars, and I'm looking into importing a later model valve body I can swap in. This is the top of my TCM A couple of numbers but no part number. Amayama can't find my specific car but it does say the following for Asia-RHD (interestingly, all out of stock....): So it looks like programable TCM are probably post September 2018 for "Asia RHD". When I read my part number out from Ecutek it was 31705-75X6D which did not match Amayama for my build date (Aug-2016)
