Hello there i got a R34 gtt which is basically looking to stock for me . i looked at carmate.com and found this sweet ass looking front bar which is for the GTR. what i wana know is will it be a perfect fit to a GTT? i know ill probably have to find a gtr style bonnet in order for the bar to fit nicely but iam just unsure if the bar will fit onto the car.would you say i need to get wider fenders as well?

pleaase anyone who has done this conversion or got any info iam all ears cheers.

If it's for a GT-R, it won't be a perfect fit as GT-R's have wider guards than GT-T's.

In saying that, if you really like the bar you can have it modified at any bodyshop who can work fibreglass.

I have a GT-R front bar on my 32 but I have a little experience with fibreglass and I modified it to suit.

If you have the will though, there is always a way.

Good luck on what you decide man.

only what i got atm,

ive readjusted it since and the gap to the bonnet has been reduced quite a bit.

Just like what they did in Fast & Furious 4...put OEM GTR front bar, sideskirts, wing and rear bar on a R34 GTT for the movie - it was actually a GTT as most of us probably know. However, it's the OEM stuff that makes it look tough.

Actually they used an east bear masterpiece body kit on a GTT with GTR badges etc for the movie.

carmate = fail

carmate + fibreglass frontbar = EPIC fail.

Your choice. I wouldn't put a fibreglass frontbar on as they're too brittle ..it will crack first time you hit one of those parking bumps.

that's bs.. i got a fiberglass do-luck front bar on mine.. it's low as and i bump parking blocks (on occasion) and it also hits speed bumps (although i go over slowly... very slowly lol) and it just scrapes.. fiberglass doesnt just crack when it hits something.. unless you drive into it at speed. they have some give and i even hit my driveway coming in and going out (sometimes) and all it does is scrape, they still have movement in them..

and if you get any cracks in the bar (they are usually small and confined).. you can take them to get patched up fairly easy..

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
