It will fit if you don't mind doing some work on the bonnet...there is a Japanese site showing step by step how to fit one.

The guards are wider, but the amount that the bar flexes in doesn't look bad, as it's only a minor geometry change.

I have a R34 GT-R front bumper and HKS Kansai C/F Hood on my R34 GT-t.

Assuming you have a GT-R hood, the R34 front bumper does fit with no mods as long as you get the upper grill support brackets that bolt to the headlights as well as the cross bar that the top of the bumper attaches to. The stock GT-t bumper re-enforce will work with some slight trimming I believe. I opted for a GT-R bumper re-enforce (light weight allumi) so it fit like a champ.

As far as the attaching the bumper to the fenders, only one bolt hole will line up so you can either toss the plastic re-enforcement piece that the front bolt goes through and use rear bolt to hold the bumper on each side or re-drill the forward hole in the bumper to the correct position. I used the rear bolt only as I was too lazy that day to re-drill the bumper. You will end up with the tips of the bumper about 4mm past the end of the fender wheel arch, but it is not too bad. There will also be a small gap between the headlights and the bumper at the corners, but in all it looks tits hot!

As for the hood you need to buy GT-R hinges and a GT-R hood latch support to make it work. If you get an HKS Kansai hood you can "mod" your GT-t hinges to make them work but you need a butt load of washers to bring the hood up to the correct height in the back. You will need to drill a new hole in the GT-R hood latch support to bolt it to your lower radiator support frame on the car but it is a piece of cake.

I will try to get some photos of my setup for you guys if you want.

If you have any questions feel free to PM me I will be happy to help you out.

Here is the site for modding the GT-t hood and installing the GT-R bumper. If you save the photos to your HD and open them up they are a bit bigger than what is on the website.

This is the site I used for reference when I put my bumper on.

I will be taking some photos tomorrow and will post them for you guys.

In the mean time here is a photo of a GT-t with a GT-R rear bumper. (Not my ride though I got this pic off the internet somewhere if it’s a forum members ride I am sorry for scamming your pic)

Looks great! ;)

Hey, another Japan member - have you visited the Japan section? :)

Nice to see someone else with a non-GTR R34 in bayside blue - not many of us about!

Q: How'd you manage to get a private plate? I mean, I someone doubt it was a coincidence you got "34" :) :)

Hey thanks man!

The private number was easy. When I bought the car from NISSAN I asked for the number ”. . 34”. It cost like 4000 yen extra, but anyone can do it when you register a car.

I have had the car for a year now and I did the bumper and hood about 3 months ago but these are the first new photos since the front-end change.

      That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain.

      OK, so update from the track day on Friday It was a classic "an unfortunate series of events'. There were a few cars around and when i checked my mirror coming out of the fish hook I notice some smoke from the rear of mine. Looked again and it was getting much worse, I figured I'd blown a turbo or something to got off it and pulled off the racing line. However.... since it is a left hairpin into a right kink, I was on the inside of the next corner. There was a car passing me on the left and a big drop off over the ripple strip on the right......and someone had knocked the witch's hat that was on the apex about 1m onto the track. So, between those 3, I decided to mow down the cone and not damage my car/the other car. Right choice, but surprising result.  The car decided the cone was a small pedestrian so it blew the rear bonnet hinges up to protect their head in the upcoming person to car impact....I didn't see that coming and like an airbag deployment it happened super fast. Straight into the pits from there, everything was driving fine but it became clear it was a coolant leak not smoke, it was billowing up onto the windscreen. Onto the trailer and home. I'll do a separate thread about the repair (once I work out what it is ), but the immediate problem was the bonnet wouldn't open because the front was pinched onto the front bar and would not release. Ultimately we unbolted the hinge from the bonnet, pulled it back a little and it released from the front OK. "There's your problem", the top radiator hose had popped off at the radiator.
