hii guys i was just wondering if anyone can help me im trying to convert my rear end with the gtr rear quarter panels and with the gtr rear bar which i will get from viva garage does anyone know if i can modify my nismo sideskirts to fit the rear panels and the front fenders or if i need to also get the gtr rear tailgate covers to ? i already have big wheels to fit on along with spacers ? anyone please help

Edited by sevan34

i dont know if the vivagarage ones are for the gtr conversion... i think they may not be but im not 100%

they change the look and make em wider but pretty sure not gtr

sevan: yes, the gt-r conversion is MONSTROUSLY costly, while the body parts themselves may not be overly so, the cost of fitting and spraying it is likely to double the cost of the parts, since the gt-r conversion covers almost all of the car.

I think its estimated at around 6k or so? you could do alot with 6k mate

those are also really expensive, imo if you want a body kit just get something nice that was made for a gt-t, and if you want put a bonnet made for a gt-r on, and a mole to give the front that more round and aggressive look

thanks for the help guys really appreciate it, this is my plan i wana buy the rear fenders and the rear impul rear bumper and get my side skirts modified to fit iv alrerady got monster sized wheels at 18 X 10.5 volk wheels and 38 mm rear spacers so it sits flush with the rear guards im quoted for the parts at $650 including shipping from viva garage and the guys i know quoted me $2200 fitted and sprayed (good mates of mine) is there anything else i should worry about before doing so or am i set for the job ?

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
