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.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
