I'm no expert but with the right rims even a stock height GTR does not look "jacked up"

Something like this looks good and would be practical, but I guess it depends on what suspension mods and body kit you have to get any real answer.

Its hard to say without seeing what suspension you have fitted, yours may have adjustable coil overs, so if they are adjustable you can try setting a bit higher. I believe the stock height is 410F/400R. Your going to have to go to a suspension shop or get someone in the know how to adjust it for you. The R33 GTR Is quiet a meaty looking car, so its hard to make it look jacked up, I wouldn't worry about going up a bit. If it doesn't have adjustable height then your going to need to buy some adjustable coil overs.

Its rubbing because you probably have 19in wheels and the tyre is scraping along the inside fender and plastic guards. I had the same thing happening with my 19in until I got the guards rolled.

Remember to reset all your bushes when you raise/lower the car.

Lowering/raising will change the angle of your arms/rods, which can put stress on the bushes and result in premature wear (if you don't have the bushes released while youre setting height).

Thank you. I'll try and find out what "bushes" are

Front right tyre *shy*

Hahaha, don't worry, the good thing about owning such a car is you get to learn/work on them yourself!

Whereabouts are you located? Perhaps an SAU member can help you out.

Pull a wheel off and have a look at what suspension you have. To be honest, your car isn't ultra low, so raising it a centimetre or two should sort it out. It might need a guard lip/roll as well. Perhaps a bit of wheel alignment fiddling can sort out the scrub. Your car should have adjustable arms already.

Thank you!!! :)

I am in Adelaide by the way.

Oh, and it's BC racing suspension.

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
