hey guys just wondering whether there's something amiss with the bodykit of this car

http://uniquemotors.shopforcars.com.au/Detail.aspx?StockID=17319&Car=NISSAN%20SKYLINE%20R34%20GT-T%201998%20COUPE%20$22,999.00

notice that the rear bar is nismo kit but on the front bar pictures (there's 2) which show one side each, there is a difference in the sides. that being: on a nismo front bar there are 3 little vents on each side of the front bar, but on this car, the vents only appear on one side. also, the side skirts don't seem to be nismo.....is this correct?

if so, any likely explanations?

The front is normal one for the year GTT,the three vents are for the side mount intercooler

What side skirts it doesn't have any , exactly how mine came

has the awful wing and ugly ass rear bar

Looks unmolested for the most part besides that

those are factory items as part of the nismo aero kit.

as seen on here (apart from the gtr spoiler)

interestingly, the car OP mentioned is missing thte side skirts as well as the front bumper of the kit (as seen below).

so yes a bit fishy, did it originally have nismo aero with front bar and skirts removed? or was the rear bar and spoiler added?

thats a standard series 1 bar. the one your loking at is the series 2 bar. i used to have the nismo/altia bar which was boss but i got the stock GTT with the nismo lip and its jizz.

The series 2 front bar looks nothing like that , I have one and it looks like a damn ford

No side skirts was standard

Don't care it says nismo that wing and rear end is horrid looking , the bulge that says skyline ruins it

the car he's looking at is a factory series 1front bar with the nismo rear bar and trolley wing. this is a series 2 bar no?

Yes that's the one

Found its ford like but even more dodge intrepid

my bad. thats what i meant, somehow got it switched around.

but adding those skirts on would be a bitch since you'd have to drill holes unless you want to just stick it on top of your paint. my factory fitted skirts had holes drilled in for clips on the side.

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
