I would like to put on a Nismo Z-tune style GT-R bonnet on a GT-T.

Already getting the East Bear front, but don't like the look of their bonnet.

What would I need to do this?

Hinges, locking mechanism, front wings?

im sure there are several threads covering what you would need to fit a gtr bonnet to a gtt, do a search, and you should get a more definitive answer.

im pretty sure that its just the hinges, mechanisms to keep the bonnet down/bonnet release, and the obvious gtr styled front bar or gtt bar with a top mole.

Yes Rush is right, there are a few threads covering this.

Here is the part numbers you will need to order from Nissan Japan ( order via Local Nissan Dealer and they will import) You will also need to pay for the parts up front before your dealer will order them most of the time.

I will also list the prices but dont quote me ,the price may have increased slightly since i purchased mine.

Nissan GTR OEM Part numbers

65400-AA400 - Hinge Assembly - RH - $81 Australian

65401-AA400 - Hinge Assembly - LH - $84 Australian

62550-AA400 - Stay - Hood Lock - $88 Australian

65601-AA400 - Male Assembly Hood Lock - $100 Australian

It will probably be easier to use a GTT front bar with a Nose attachment rather than going all out to modify a GTR bonnet ( i went all out, very expensive and long time - need much patience) If you choose to go a GTR bar and not modify it then you will need to change the guards which will also mean bigger rims to fill the space or spacers which i wouldn't recommend.

All the best with this.

David.

Sorry for not using the search function (usually the first to tell others they have to :P strange :P )

I'm going for the East Bear Spec 2 kit from Knight-Racer, but as stated I want a different bonnet.

The GTR bar from KR will fit the GTT wings.

NZMO thank you for the part numbers.

Is the locking mechanism easy to change or do you have to drill holes in the framework to fit the GTR lock?

And the GTR bonnet is just as width and has the same front line (where the headlights are mounted) as the GTT bonnet?

As far as i know that bonnet is exactly like the gtr, meaning the front of the bonnet doesnt fold down like the gtt. So it would be exactly like putting the east bear bonnet on, but...ztune lol.

If thats what your talking about.

Josh's ( JSAI ) their Z-Tune Bonnets for the GTT actually do fold down over the nose.

hey NZMO, are they impul side skirts?

yes they sure are, im not sure what ill be doing in the coming months with them as im going for GTR rear guards(which means ill also have to change my rear bar to a GTR bar to line up - hence my signature wanted to buy ) and Z-Tune front guards being GTR fitment i dont think ill be able to keep these skirts as ill have to go either Z-tune skirts and modify them not sure as yet.

For the locking mechanism there is not to much involved and as for the bonnet it does line up with the guards line and head lights.

Good luck with your project, i know its not going to be cheap.

Nice kit too , my front Bar is Top Secret GTR.

cheers,

David.

      Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?

      Look, realistically, those are some fairly chunky connectors and wires so it is a reasonably fair bet that that loom was involved in the redirection of the fuel pump and/or ECU/ignition power for the immobiliser. It's also fair to be that the new immobiliser is essentially the same thing as the old one, and so it probably needs the same stuff done to make it do what it has to do. Given that you are talking about a car that no-one else here is familiar with (I mean your exact car) and an alarm that I've never heard of before and so probably not many others are familiar with, and that some wire monkey has been messing with it out of our sight, it seems reasonable that the wire monkey should be fixing this.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it.

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
