I have a 98 GTT and want to fit some vented front fenders but I'm not sure if I should get the GTT or GTR vented front fenders.

Anyone know the difference between the GTT aftermarket vented front fenders and the GTR aftermarket vented front fenders? Are the GTT vented front fenders smaller in terms of clearance? Would it be better to get the GTR vented front fenders so I can fit wider rims if the clearance is bigger?

The style of fenders for the GTT I'm talking about are these.. The GTR vented fenders are similar I'm guessing... I never seen them clearly. I'm not talking about the 'horned' looking vented fenders for the GTR.. just the plain vented ones. Thanks for any help on this!

I found these on the Japan Yahoo Auction.. they cost around $235 USD after conversion. I know someone who you can get a quote from and will send them to you. Go to www.RHDJapan.com The owner is Russell Hobbs and Patrick Antell. E-mail them with the picture of the fender and they will get you a quote. They can actually get you anything. I bought my BCNR33 RB26DETT from them. If you don't know the product name you can send them a picture of what you want and they can find it and price it. I live in S.Korea so the prices are good for me.. I don't know how they'll be for you guys.

..but back to my question. What is the difference in clearance with the two fenders? Anyone fitted the GTR vented fenders on a GTT before?

no i mean if he changes his fenders to gtr ones

ah tru, misunderstood that, if there isnt a great deal of difference then might as well go for the gtt ones,

I wouldnt mind a set, at 235$US (per set?) i think its worth while, of course it would also require the re-spray

I just check my e-mail for the exact price... 31,290 JPY http://www.xxx-treme.jp/parts/fender_er34.htm I guess they do R33 and R32 vented fenders too.

R33cruiser, thats what i'm talking about. How many mm difference would it be if i were to get the do luck gtr vented fenders

vs the GTT stock fenders.

And does anyone know if these GTT vented fenders are wider or just a stock replacement.

Hey thanks 4 ur help! Much appreciated :D

and if u change ur front fenders, dont u then need to change ur front bar?

yup, I plan on changing my front bar to East Bear, bonnet to East Bear Aero and fenders to either do-luck gtr aero or gtt vented. I just need to know what the mm difference is so I can buy my rims and have them sit nicely.

Going by what i used to have on my R33, the vented GTT guards are about 20mm wider, but taper back to meet with the factory front bumper mount locations.

If you go the GTR guards, you will require a bonnet, hinges, front bumper and a few other alterations to get it all to fit. But overall wheel clearance is much more than the GTT vented guards, as the GTR's front bumpers sit out about 50mm wider than a GTT and the guards don't taper in.

we got R34 GTR guards to suit R34 GTT if you cant find any see http://www.uras.com.au/syohin/skyline.html#r34 from memory they are $649 and genuine URAS bolt on replacements

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
