hi guys,

Im new to the forum. Spend most of my time at evolutionoz.net coz I have an Evo VII. Love doing custom work on cars. Currently doing custom head lights and tail lights for my VII. A friend of mine has a BNR34 GTR with a few bolt on mods. Car drives very well! great crusing car compared to the Evo but going around corners and ill take the Evo hands down.

Basically, the reason I joined up was for 2 reasons:

- Ive always respected the R34 GTR. Looks very tuff out of the box. The best OEM rims on a car, comfy & nice shaped buckets, LCD display, pumped rear gaurds. I may consider buying one later on down the track (still keep the Evo of course) So Id like to learn as much as i can about the car. problems associated, what mods give good gains, CF add ons etc.

- been involved doing my custom head lights (using S2000 + Infinity FX35 projectors for a quad set up). Been contemplating on doing an S2000 projector retrofit for my mates GTR. Im in the process of trying to buy a 2nd hand pair of R34 head lights. Xenon or non xenon.. dont really care.

for those of you in the know, what are the differences between the GT / GTT / GTR head lights in terms of:

- physical features

- Visual features

- fittment on GTR

- pricing throughout the whole range

I dont know if anyone has ever done a projector retrofit to a set of R34 heads before? Id like to be one of the first to complete a set for my friend of mine.

I look forward to giving and recieving advice on SAU.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
