Would anyone be able to tell me if these body kits are a direct fit onto a 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 25GT Coupe? The reason I ask is, is because I'm looking at getting a body kit for my Skyline some time in the not too distant future, and I've heard people saying some body kits require additional work to make them fit and such. Cheers.

genuine bodykits are going to be the best fit.. but you are talking 7k + for a kit..

most fiberglass kits will require some modification to fit but depending on who you buy or how much you pay.. it all comes down to quality.. paying that little extra can make it so much nicer.. i got my front bar & qtr panels from DMD.. they required little modification at all

If you're worried about the parts not fitting, how about going to a shop which will be getting the parts in as well for you?

They won't really charge you more if the parts dont fit, you just pay a fixed amount for the parts and fitting/spraying

and that silver front bumper looks amazing :)

ive got impul sides and rear :) I think they would go well together in my mind just visualising it. im not much of a fan of the impul front bumper.

i'll probably be going with a top secret or something style bar for my front if i ever change it as well

impul goes well with alot, its a nice simple style so it suits alot of diffferent bumpers imo, but id go for something more "boxy" and square like a top secret bumper, rather than something like the altia/aero kit

dori what body kit did you have? I remember seeing ur car in alot of pics while i was lookin for which body kit i wanted and it looked heaps good but i cant remember what it was ... just remember u had a nice one :)

*edit* - the silver one i think is a top secret bumper with a uras bonnet lip - worship.gif

and the blue one is just super sexy but i dont think its an actual car? not too sure

@Jonno - The blue one looks pretty fake.

At the current point in time I don't even know what kit I'd go for, let alone what car..

I'm still on my P plates (green phase (will be off next january though)..

I've only really been looking at skylines and/or the s-chassis cars (Silvias and such)

Reeaaaaaaaaaaaally considering an R34 GT-R conversion on my 25GT, with some 18' R34 GT-R Wheels. I just love the GT-R look, only way to go!

2 x R34 GT-R Front Guards

2 x R34 GT-R Rear Guards

2 x R34 GT-R Side Skirts

1 x R34 GT-R Front Bar

1 x R34 GT-R Rear Bar

1 x R34 GT-R Bonnet

1 x R34 GT-R Nose (the part between the front bar and the bonnet)

Got in contact with a guy who is in the process of getting me a quote for all the genuine parts. Still kind of researching the conversion. Buying the parts, getting the parts painted to match my current factory KV2, getting the parts fitted and having the rear guards welded on since they're not a perfect fit, and then buying a set of R34 GT-R Wheels in good nick... it all equates to $$$!

Will let you guys know if I'll even bother with it, depending on costs and such.

Please, please, please don't.

Don't make it something it isn't, especially on a N/A R34 making less than 100kw.

I've got a genuine GTR bonnet and genuine East Bear bonnet lip for sale, click on my signature if you are interested :)

Guys i thought this was a thread for bodykit reference, not a discussion about kits you want/have etc...

On another note

I came across this thread, albeit a little old, might be a point of contact for anyone wanting a JGTC widebody kit

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
