Decided not to noob up and start a new thread with the same questions and info.

From my ride thread.

Bodykit is ordered. Im awaiting its delivery any day. I got the bomex front bar, a modified bomex rear bar for 4 door application, and a set of modified gtr skirts. Bonnet arrives today - carbon of course.

Once its painted and fitted that may do me for a while. See how the bug hits me. im already keen on changing tail lights for the gtr version thats for sure so im sure knowing me it'll be a matter of time before it gets out of hand...

Here's my understanding of bodykits for r34 and inparticular 4 door versions from my researchings over the last few weeks...

East bear - available at a very high price but a solid look, very boxed but still agressive.

Uras - its common as hell IMO and is basically the kit available on most rides out there, simply skirting off the bumper, is not custom enough for me. if you can buy it on ebay its hardly a one off...

Bomex/C West - bit of a blurry line as to whats what but in the 4 door only the front bars available so far. Im not a fan of the snow plow look so i started searching suppliers to see what else is around in oz.

Ordering my kit:

As i understand it the front bars on the 4 door gtt are no different to any other 2 door gtt, so the bomex was an easy choice for me. As was the carbon bonnet. They checked into it to be sure and confirmed the front bars and bonnet are same.

The side skirts require stretching on my guys advice and he just so happened to have a set of stretched r34 gtr ones available. Hopefully they turn out nicely.

The rear bar of course being different was chopped and adjusted to suit and again in my case was attainable as it was lying around almost done. Mines been symettrically matched and the flutes removed so it could be an interesting look.

Hopefully this will start a wave of kits based on the 4 door model r34 but who knows it could all go pear shaped and i end up with some lines that dont mesh right, or a kit thats just not suited to the shape of the 4 door looking forced or wrapped into position.

Im a big fan of the 4 door so far as its a commonly overlooked model, thats IMO got styling appeal all of its own... Fingers crossed it works out. The wheels are my next pondering, im just not sure how they'll end up lookin after it's done...

Nice kits, i wish they had those GTT Badges here. What i would do for those..................

also i saw the GTT 700BHP RB30 in the redline magazine, that things a monster. i love the front and rear guards on it.

seen them on ebay quite a bit $20-30 or so..

Hi Denis if you ever see a link on ebay for those badges please let me / us know, thanks mate., im on ebay every day seriously lol(the wonders of mobile technology) and im yet to find one.

cheers,

David.

definately a fan of the c west lines and the sleek look of it for sure. I love the jdl kit too, but the full one was over done for me.

Always annoying though theres never much around in 4 door and there's no shortage of hot combo's for the 2 door. Thats a good thing for a guy like me though.

They have all of these photos on their website, but there is something about them that looks so photoshopped.

im just about to change my kit from cwest front, sides and bomex rear to do luck front, bomex sides and rear.. IMHO its one of the better looking kits out there, ive never really been into bit kits on 34's but never really appreciated the standard kits either... i think you can never go wrong with bomex sides and rear but do luck front bar gives 34 great presence.

although u can forget about speed bumps, steep driveways, most shopping centres, maccas, and hit and runs on small children... cause the ground clearance aint exactly optimal.

ive always had a soft spot for the do-luck kit, the full kit is quite hot, but never mind hit and runs, that front bar will swallow some small children whole!

It is Top Secret, I have one. Check my Garage in profile.

I got mine from PSI parts, It was a good fit, not great. I run carbon cannards and there was not enough of a lip underneath to mount them optimally.

ah thats good then, i was planning on getting my Impul sides from psiparts as well, would be nice to get my whole kit from them.

anybody got any recommendations on rear bumper? i wasnt too into the Impul rear, im more into a stock gt-r look rear bumper, but the only company that makes something like that is east bear and im not really able to pay their prices...

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • 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
