Hey guys, i have an Nissan Skyline R34 GT arriving in December yet it currently has the factory nismo body kit.,

Im not a particular fan of the front bumper for the nismos and so iv been searching around for some nice front bumpers any ideas or nice bumper designs that would suit it.

i was keen on the Do Luck bumper yet iv heard alot of issues with being too low, need something practical :)

if you end up ordering from viva, pay the extra for shipping insurance. i ordered a lip that was broken in 2, no biggie i fixed it myself, but if you don't have the skills or time or cash to fix, you may as well pay the shipping insurance.

http://www.vivagarag.../index.php?c=87 check this out. Type R on page 3 looks good.

very gt-r like!

its nice imo go for something different that doesnt make it look like a gt-r :)

personally i would go for a top secret front bumper

not too sure .. mine really needs a new bonnet and front bumper though, it looks odd with sides/rear but no front

+1 to johnnoHaving the top secret bumper really sets it apart, I've got it on my pearl white 25gt(sedan) and bystanders still think its a gtr at times.Note: did remove the 's' badge and just have factory skirts/bumper

If anyone knows of any bonnets that are still painted ( would like to keep that subtle look) let me know :)

Both of those are Top Secret front bars, the white one is a copy of the GTR front bar while the silver is the gtt designed one.

The gtr version (on the gtr) comes with a lip as well which finishes off the look, as at the moment it looks like something is missing.

I really do like the gtr front bumper but the only issue is u need the full kit for it too look good and proper,

otherwise its looks like a rip off version of a gtr in my opinion, i want some thing unique and different, i really did like the Do Luck yet they arent practical at all. Im kinda leaning to the top secret.

i plan on lowering it also would yous know if thats an issue at all?

Also some thoughts on what i plan on doing to it is, a nice front bumper (no final decsion yet..), Te 37s (glossy black), with black gtr bonnet, and possibly some simple skirts, the car is grey btw ???

yeah mine didnt come with a lip, ive been looking around like crazy to find one, also probably looks like somethings missing because it's a non-turbo > no FMIC. all in due time though :thumbsup: hopefully..

fuark thats cheap! yeah thats along the same thing im looking for.

As far as i know it's a top secret bumper (made for gtr) but fitted for a gtt.only the two end bolts were holding it up until the other week when i drilled a hole through one side so i could raise it up alittle because it was sagging alittle around the headlights.

[being second australian owner cant find any reciepts from previous driver buying or installing the bumper, so i can only assume it was put on in japan.]

this is top secrets gtr which is the lip i want to acquire but cant manage to find it anywhere, will the universal one fit maybe?

yeah its a definate option for me now, just buy it > fit it on and in the event that i manage to find the real deal - boom bought and swapped.

just wish there were more options for side skirts/bumpers for the sedans as there are for the coupes.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That is way more science than even I would use. I just eyeball it, not even accounting for the non-verticality of the tape measure when held on the lip and the centre at the same time. +/- 2mm is good enough for the girls I go out with.

      So, before putting them in I need to understand the stock ride height. This is how I measured it: First, check the diameter of the wheel's centre cap, it was 52mm. Then put a piece of masking tape approximately across the centre and measure 27mm (half) from at least 3 sides to get a reasonable idea of the centre of the wheel cap. Mark that with a horizontal line as one measuring point. Then, directly above the wheel on the guard, put another piece of masking tape in approximately the centre. Use a string line to find out the point on the guard above the centre of the wheel cap and mark that. Then it is simple, just a tape measure to check the distance from centre of the wheel to the centre of the guard. Final results where  LF: 381mm RF: 379mm LR: 401mm RR: 400mm Pretty even considering they are 120,000klm old factory springs, lets call that 380 front and 400 rear.

      By Duncan · Posted

      So....knowing that I have a problem with power steering temps on track and another Wakefield day booked in next Friday, I've done the obvious thing They are very reasonably priced at $1650, considering they are a big monotube shock, double height adjustable (don't have to change pre-load to change ride height), one way adjustable damping and standard sized and customisable springs if you want something other than what comes with them. They come with 9kg/mm front and 4.5kg/mm front and I went with that as a starting point because I'll add adjustable sway bars too https://justjap.com/products/bc-racing-coilover-kit-ds-ds-infiniti-q50-v37-14-current#description Unfortunately they didn't come with rear strut tops so I've re-used the factory ones which was a bit of a pain. Also, the adjuster for the rear shock will be an absolute nightmare to get at, and while there are extensions in the kit I can't see any way you can actually attach or use them

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By Duncan · Posted

      I also had 2 bulbs blow at once, years ago in the stagea. made for a fun drive home. The issue was the voltage regulator had failed in the alternator and it was giving 15+ volts. Really, I was lucky all that was fried were the headlight bulbs. So, I'd suggest you check the voltage across your battery terminals with the car running and warmed up. Yes, you will need a multimeter to do so, sorry.
