I'm looking around for a bodykit for my black gtt and really like the look of this kit but the only place that seems to have it is carmate but I'd prefer not to go to these guys as their rep is anything but good

This is the kit in question http://carmate.com/product_details.php?pro...S&p_id=9948

Does anyone know if this kit has any other name oither than 'OT Style' ?? Any other suppliers/fitters in Sydney ? Cheers

I'm looking for the whole kit not just side skirts ... so is the above rear/front bar also 'impul' ?

Edit: quick googlezor actually shows yep, that whole kit is 'IMPUL' http://www.impul.co.jp/products/complete/r34.skyline.htm

Cheers, that makes searching for another seller much easier.

Found another seller too ... http://www.jracing.com.au/product.php?pid=34

Fark, doesn't look so good on a black GTT (I have a black one) or maybe it's just their crappy shots and the fact that r34 has no wing :D

HAHAHAHAHAH! yeah it looks pretty bad for some reason. i advise you to go either genuine nismo, or bomex, or do-lucks or top secret.

yeah back to the drawing board methinks ...

I'd still like to see a black gtt with the full impul kit though .. the one pictured above at the jracing web site doesn't do it justice I think with that cheesy silver mesh, no wing and bad pics. I'll never understand why some retailers put so little effort in advertising their goods, it's as if they want to turn people off from buying..grr

Having said I do like the side profile look even on that jracing one .. I wish they had better shots of front and rear though

dude pm gr34tt and alien they both have it, you cant have a better looking kit without gettin a gtr face on her on a blak car

j racing is in canberra and is the only seller i could find...1000 for the kit or ebay

I've just looked at gr34tt's one and he only has one photo in the forums and that's a factory nismo front bar (no other shots) Alien has the impul front bar with black mesh which looks pretty good but he has no side skirts whatsoever and has a nismo factory rear bar. I don't think there's anyone with the full impul kit on a black gtt (I've already gone through that R34 photos thread twice ..all 20+ pages of it ugh)

JSAI (trader) are apparently releasing a couple of GTT kits soon so I'm gonna wait a bit and see what those turn out to be like.

Just wanna say one thing though ... if I had a WHITE gt-t there's no other kit I'd even consider. The impul looks so damn good on all the white gtt's I've seen.

were they genuine items or fibreglass?

does anyone know how much the genuine plastic IMPUL side skirts for an R34 GTT cost ? I have the carmate ones installed and while the fit is good they've managed to crack them in 2 corners while fitting, leave a couple of gaps etc .. and I'm fretting everytime passengers get in/out of the car just waiting for someone to snag on the passenger sideskirts and crack it good

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
