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

hey mate, i "think" i might have what you're after

:rolleyes:

mate you are sick individual wanting to sell that...that is what i want ahh just look at them lines... the kit of GTR with the RWD ohhh damn... but thats more $$$ then i have ha, plus to make some personal touches, mate you are a owner of sex and i envy you! and the fact ill be living in melbourne means ill see that with out a doubt! so thanks for the offer tho

thats good that i know i can get the kit i want for a GTT is there any good place in melbourne area that sell decent ones does anyone know?

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)

oh okay thats not a problem in my eyes its the part in between the head lights

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.

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
