R34 Body Differences

[Envisage]

Just wondering if anyone knows the body differences between an R34 Gtt and GTR. i mean i know the front and rear quaters are flared etc etc..

but is the bonnet longer etc?

as i want to put a kit that is designed for a GTR on my GTT, is it really hard?

thanks AJ

the bonnet i dont really need to replace, just a front bar, rear bar and front fenders...

I wouldn't think it would be all that hard. Any decent body shop would be able to do it for you.

What kind of kit are you thinking of getting?? I am looking for a decent kit for my R34, but have yet to find one. The Do-Luck kits are so-so, and I don't know whether Veilside make one for the R34 GTT. Anyone??

[Envisage]

Yeah i didnt think it would be that hard either... there are a fair few kits for the GTT, as the URAS, BN, Bomex, Veilside, Do-luck, Topsecret, JUN, C-west etc etc...

Im leaning into the Do-luck one...

Yeah your looking at a new bonnet and the gaurds are also different on the 34 GT-R.

[Envisage]

so that means the gtr bonnet is longer?

GTR bonnet is shorter.

bonnet is the same length. the guard is wider. front bumper and rear bumper supports are different. you'll probably need to get adapters made to fit a larger/wider bumper. maybe $100 for all the adapters. also the sideskirts mount differently to the guards on a GT? compared to a GTR, so you'll have to come up with some clever way of makin those fit.

maybe GTR front guard, r34 gtr front fenders and keep the rest as gt and get the standard kit.

Don't tell him they are the same bonnet's because they are NOT. This is a fact, just look at pictures plus I've had a GTR bonnet up against mine and they arnt the same! The GTR Bonnet doesn't have the lip that the GTT has so it's a fair bit shorter.

[funkymonkey]

yes, but if you are putting a GTR front bumper on the car then the shortened GTR bonnet is rectified innit?

OK dimensionally the GTR bonnet is shorter... but I think it should fit into where a GTt bonnet goes properly as long as you put a GTR bumper on as well to cover the gap... that's what I mean...

[Abo Bob]

But he was saying that he didn't want to change the bonnet.

Funky you're losing your grip.

yeah you need to break out the angle grinder on that thing...chopskies!!!Not that I've looked into it or anything

Either way the GT-t bonnet needs to be modded a little bit. And the GTR front spoiler needs to have some slight "massaging" to get it on without that bulged look from the sides being pinned in.

Hmm Powerplay have a pretty good GTT - GTR conversion bodykit. Aparently it involves a new front bar and a new bonnet. Makes the GTT look just like a GTR, without the flared guards though.

[Abo Bob]

Oh that's right. I forgot about that. It's East Bear. I've seen it.

[Envisage]

Okay, so im just going to put a GTR bonnet on it, front fenders, front bar.. it will all work out, the side skirts will be fine, the only thing now is the rear bar, as teh rear flares on the GTR i think the bar will need to be remoulded and pushed in at the tips....

thanks for your help guys

Hey guys im interested in doin this too to my car. would anyone know how much it would cost for gtr front guards, front bar and bonnet cost? also how much the east bear kit is if it is a cheaper option. thanks guys

[Abo Bob]

I don't know if you care or not but people are going to bag you out if you try to make your car look like a GTR when it isn't one. You'll have a better looking car if you just make it a tuff GTT.

[666DAN]

I'd take the bagging like a man the GTR front just looks tuff as!

[Envisage]

Putting a GTR kit on a GTT isnt saying its a GTR.. i mean god i have seen Gtst Gtt with GTR badges now thats taking it to another level.

[Envisage]

that would be like saying everyone with a Veilside Combat kit is trying to make their swift, lancer etc look like a supra..
