Hey guys, new here and im looking around for the "right" R34 but i come across the same thing so i may have to get what i can and change it to suit myself this is my problem

so far all the R34 GTT's i see (gtt is what i can afford) all have a different front bumpers to a GTR (what i would dream to own)

ill show what i mean in the phots below

Your Normal GTT Front

Your GTR front bumper -

Difference is the bonnet doesnt is shorter and the front kit comes up to the height of the bonnet, so if i get a different bonnet (actually want the same as below) and a front bumper could i swap them over? or is it not really possible?? any hints or tips would be awesome

yes its possible, someone has done that already on this forum. Only thing is the guards won't meet the bumper %100 so the bumper will hang about 10-15mm into the wheel arch but other than that it should be sweet as long as you get all the appropriate hinges and bonnet latch (if you get a GTR bonnet)

The bonnet in that pic is either nismo or nismo style, if you want to save time and money just get a GT-R style front bumper so you don't have to get a GT-R bonnet and everything will fit %100

with reference to the photos,

the top one is a stock front bar but with an aftermarket front lip, so its a little nicer

secondly, you could always grab the east bear gtr style kit if you are after the gtr look

although, the gtr pic posted has a top secret front bar, a few places including jsai...(??) and musecret stock this front bar for the gtt, which i plan to get at some point.

Pretty sure that's a factory-option lip, though you can get them in the aftermarket too...

(These lips aren't all that common, but you do still see plenty of 'em)

So far i think all GTT skylines ive seen have that bonnet lip unless it has a kit on it (just looked at a few more to see if maybe it was my eyes playing tricks) im not a hater against it but the bonnet the meets at the lights and the front bar that goes to the top of the lights just look so much more well tough really. its like a skyline is a body builder.. you can have heaps of muscle - GTT but that GTR front is like being arny in terminator 2

eh? Lip I'm talking about is on the bottom of the bumper - nothing to do with the bonnet? (no bonnet lip at all in that top picture I can see)

If you want that lip by the headlights all you have to do is buy a GTR style bonnet for GTT or just buy a GTR bonnet and get GTR hinges and bonnet lock assembly and swap it over. And then get a GTR bumper, but the bumper won't fit the exact shape of the GTT guards.. if that doesn't bother you then its pretty easy to do all that mentioned above.

      Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.

      That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!

      Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)

      gtr hood match gt/gtt front fenders?

      You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
