hey guys, has any one here got a 400r kit fitted to the R33?

i saw a kit at Drift Line yesterday and it looked tough as nails but it wasnt fitted to a car so i've got no idea how good/bad it will look. ive googled a couple of images but they all look different.

any photos would be great....

Have you had a look at other bodykits. 400r is the most common bodykit and personally i dont see anything special about them.

Spoken like a true GTS-T owner :(

Seriously though, I love the 400R kit, and would love an R33 GTR with one fitted. R33 GTR's are pretty rare here in melb, and the 400R body kit would just make it all the better.

I would have thought there would be a lot of R33 GTR's in Melbourne..?

400r kits may be common but they are not over the top like some kits. its not to ricey

The front bar is over top i think to may vents and openings. The sides are vey nice but they dont sit level with the front (jun sides are better). The rear bar is pretty cool no compliants there.

heres a couple more pics for ya. When i used to sell kits i found that the 400R front bar gives a fair bit more ground clearance then most of the other designs, if there fitted properly that is. they can sag alot if not done right and that will take a good 30mm off your ground clearance.If you do get a 400R front bar please get the proper indicator lights for it,nothing worse then when people use trailer lights in them.

The side skirts are nice, the only beef i have with them is when people get out of my car they always hit them. i have a veilside rear bar on mine so i cant comment on that.

i've got a 400r front bar as well and now trying to find sideskirts to match i was going to go 400r sideskirts but i think i want something level with the front bar!

im thinking 400r front with either top secret or do luck sides and 400r rear bar

400r is the most common overdone kit on an r33... its got way too many openings and is a bit over the top on a gts/gtst

only ever looked good on the gtr.

get yourself a type-m kit and skirts, well fitting jap wheels and slam it to the ground. awesome :)

try have a look at some diff cars in person if you can, get an idea of what kit you like. 400R is a good kit if done right, mine i found out has dodgy front blinkers, anyone know where to get real ones?.

Theres planty of kits on the market, mix and match if you hav to.

All these ppl who want 400r kits can i please buy your standard S2 front bar???????????????????????????????

I had a 400r front. Does look ok but too ricey for me and very (too) low.

Something inbetween would be great

hey champ, i'd give you mind but i never got a front bar with my car when i purchased it. i do however have a stock rear bar if your interested.. let me know.

the 400r kit is growing on me heavily... cant wait to get it! will post pics soon

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
