I have a GTT with a GTR Front bar. Partial Kits are OK. anyone who puts a GTR badge on a GTT is gheye tho!

The last thing I want is to lose to someone and have them scoot off all smug thinking they just beat a GTR - Fat fu(kin' chance

I was thinking of a GTR bonnet, but for the same reason stated above, I think I'd rather have a GTT bonnet fabricated from Al if I get it done...

Just my 2c

Of course they can. And we can think it's as lame as we like. You don't like it? Tough.

My friend with a v8 commodore raced a N/A R33 GTS with a GTR kit and badges, full look alike besides the flared guards. I agree that GTR kits are ok, but GTR badges are a big no no I think. My friend got all half c*cked thinking he'd beaten a GTR and went bragging to all his friends about how shit skylines are etc, despite many of us trying to tell him it was a non turbo model.

But then again on that note, if they dont know if theyre racing a real or fake GTR, in my opinion, they dont deserve to know....

my opinion for what its worth , i have a saying " if your happy im happy for you " means if they want to put ford badges on their cars and thier happy goodluck , my personal view on the matter is irrelevant . to be fair i have seen cars with GTR/Badges and body kits and the majority wernt P platers , in the end of day its still Line and thats what counts !

Badges are a real no no. If you know what you are talking about its not that hard to pick a fake one unless they have gone to great trouble to change front and rear guards. I have a GTR style front with m-spec side skirts and a gracer rear wing. I really don't like series one front bars on the 33 but that just me. I would never dream of sticking a GTR badge on it though. Whats the point? Its not a GTR, its a nice Skyline GTST!

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
