R34 Lady in Belgium :D

Hey everyone 

I'm Amber, I hail from Brisbane but live in Belgium and I would like to introduce you all to my baby, my R34 GTT "Nozomi".

I found her in 2015 hiding out in someones garage, he had her imported and registered in 2010 - 2011. It was meant to be a 'project' car with his sons but he didn't get much further than reupholstering, getting rid of the limiter and changing the odo over. It has 63000KMs and new coilpacks, got the goodies as well that he already bought but never fitted incl FMIC and HKS hi power exhaust line. The FMIC didn't fit so I sold it and got an autobahn88 one now. The line is so loud and obnoxious even my deaf 92 yr old neighbor hears me leave in the morning. Also changed the filter over to Blitz advantage but for the time being, engine is stock.

Last time I took her into the garage, my expert told me that she was Nismo down to the suspension! And rear-right is busted so fantastic! Plans for the year is a new ECU + map, new injectors, pump etc. See how she goes from there. And also paint the covers and maybe chroming the intake.

Cheers guys!

Thanks guys! ^-^

The R33 and 34's arent a very common sight, R32's are very popular because they can be registered as "old timers" and pay a whopping 35 euro per year in rego. Insurance is miniscule as well and the engine can be modified to your hearts content.  

 

welcome to the forums!

It certainly appears your car has the "nismo" bodykit similar to the altia kit but with a different rear bumper. My old R34 had the exact same bodykit.

My car also came with Bilstein suspension from factory, if yours is the same maybe this was a package offered from the dealerships in japan?

Belgium is RHD right? Is it much hassle driving a LHD car over there?

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
