Hi Guys,

I've been taking a look around lately and since i'm not really into putting thousands under the hood of my car (aside from the required maintenance) i'm looking for some suggestions and ideas on some unique modifications that can be done to the looks, both interior and exterior that can be done on the R34 GT-T.

I don't want some huge GT wing or carbon fibre bonnet, I'm not talking about ricing the car, but I want some tasteful mod suggestions that can just make it stand out a little more that I'm an enthusiast without turning it into rice or having to put thousands into the performance.

Any suggestions would be great or examples of unique looks that have been done on some projects you've seen.

Thanks Guys

um, good unique mods come from people with unique ideas and good taste.

your not gonna get these from asking others.

that being said, just check out what other peopele have and steal any good ideas you like.
imo good wheels make a car, good ride hight will start you off well. detail the hell out of the car, doing that will find all sorts of things to do like stripping things down repairing repainting, replacing.

i like this guys path.

That modified cluster is a bit crusty with the 2 holes still in the clear cover.

Unique mods for an r34 usually suck. That's why they are unique mods. Pretty much all of the good ideas have been done....

The acceptable amount of mods to be considered a car enthusiast is 1 hellaflush sticker or equivalently gay sticker/s of your choosing.

Wheels and tyres for the exterior, and some nice ADR approved buckets seats. Less is best.....unless you like dildos......the gear shifter ones

Broadfields work is hardly crusty that was just an example of many, go check out his page there might be something you like.

This. Little details make a big difference, fresh coat of paint and restore black plastics ect

for a 34 just this ^ 100%

Hardly unique but I do like my Origin boot lip and wing: http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/438115-how-to-install-boot-lip-and-roof-wing/

The cheap and easy to install rubber front lip made a difference too, IMO.

How about installing an antenna like the one on those highway patrol cop cars, IMO cars with antennas look aggressive and serious

Like this and notice his wide tyres as well,

For me i might get a little sticker on the side window of my favourite anime which is Higurashi or Madoka, NOW THATS JDM! :D

Follow the Colin Chapman theory and add lightness.

Remake every single body panel in CF, then repaint it a stock colour, with the colour coats thin enough that if you get close you can still see the weave through it. Add decent suspension and lightweight forged wheels.

Zero engine modifications so no more power, but improved performance through your car now being much lighter, and improved handling through better suspension and lower unsprung weight..

Note: May cost bajillions of dollars.

And...

Since Rays Duralumin wheel nuts being discontinued...

Carbon fibre prop shaft.

C/f rear wing, strut brace,...

Ti panel bolts...

Rear wiper removal.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
