Hey I was just wondering if anyone could help me locate a Nissan Skyline R34 GTT Nismo/Aero Factory Bodykit...

I have searched the net all night and found nothing. I'm just after a website or a shop that sells them or imports them.

If your after a brand new original Nismo kit, better brace yourself. Your better off looking on Yahoo Japan for a used kit. www.importmonster.com.au or MrZac on the forum.

I believe FBR copy can be obtained from DMD the image in Qld

On this topic - are genuine Nismo kits plastic (like OEM bars) or fibreglass?

When I purchased my R34 GTR it had a Nismo kit fitted (as per pictures taken when the car was still in Japan), the seller assured me (he sells bodykits) that it was a genuine Nismo kit and that they are fibreglass.

I'm asking as I'm looking to get it resprayed but would rather a genuine one if they are of different composition.

The GTT kit many people here seem to refer to as the 'Nismo' is actually not Nismo at all - it's the Nissan optional Aero kit, sometimes referred to as Altia I believe. It's the one with the front bar that has the black-plastic middle bit with 'SKYLINE' written on it and the rear bar has the slanted middle section.

The Nismo rear bar looks like this: http://carmate.com/product_details.php?pro...&p_id=10208 and it's very rare (which is why I just got one! ;D)

Are you saying you bought the rear end on the basis that it's rare.. there are alot of rare items and i can tell you why they are mostly rare.. LOL

and correct me if i'm wrong but you bought that FPR from car mate yes.. which isnt rare.. they just keep molding new ones.. not like an optional kit from nissan that wasnt really chosen so there aint many out there and nissan charge through the roof to purchase a GENUINE one

the 'Nismo' rear bar is "rare" because I've only seen 2 so far ... and I don't think it's rare because it's shit. And no I didn't get it just because it's rare but because I like the look. I'm probably going to take my wing off and this rar bar gives it a nice chunky bum which IMO would look good without a wing.

As for the Nissan optional Aero - it's on approx. 50% of the 34's coming from Japn which is why it's common. Nothing wrong with this kit, just thought I'd clear up the whole naming thing because it can be confusing for people looking for a kit.

What's your point mate? I like the kit whether it's rare or not, it just happens to be rare. Why do I think it's rare ? Because I've been looking for a kit since I got my 34 approx. 8 months ago and came accross one member's piccies just a few days ago - first time I saw one and I thought I'd seen them all up until then.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
