you'll have to change or modify the bonnet latch also for the bonnet to close and get the front grill, the killer is the rear guards which are obviously part of the chassis that will need to get replaced. Headlights should be ok as long as they have the brackets for the front grill.

Also if you change the front guards you'll need to change the side indicators as GTR ones are larger than GTS.

So after all this is it worth having a fake GTR? You decide.

I've seen a black example on the net that had the stockies from a 34 GTR, looked H-O-T.

I was tempted for awhile to get a GTR 'style' kit for my 33 but I decided to just wait a few years until I can afford to buy a real GTR (34 preferrably :D ) but if you have the free time and funds then go for it. Any skyline looks hot imo, even the 31s look good compared to other cars of it's day, Enjoy your car and good luck if you plan to go ahead with it

hi guys i got a question here, if i want to change my r32gtst to r32 gtr look

do i just need to source the r32 gtr bonnet, front bar and front guards?

or there is something else need to be replaced?

what about the headlights are they the same?

thanks a lot for helping

First thing you need is a bitch-slap upside your head.

Dude... why? :chairshot

Save the money and buy a R32gtr :uh-huh:

B-eer (spelling?) in Japan have a R34 gtr conversion/kit bout 10k befor freight, fitting and painting!

Trust me...

Save the money and buy GTR their coming down in price!!! might get a good trade in on the GTS-T + 10k saved from the front conversion = at least 15k, just another 5k from base GTR + insurnace.

Don't dress mutton up as lamb- we all know the difference! might take a couple of bites but in the end we'll find out.

GTR is the way to go! :uh-huh:

Good luck

Dude... why?  :chairshot

I can think of plenty of reasons...only reason against is the cost of swapping over the rear guards etc. Sadly the cost is the reason why i would never consider it:(

Main reason for; do a search and find footage of a yellow RUF Porsche at the'Ring, car was called Yellow Bird i think...exciting handling and RWD:thumbsup:

So get tuff looks, wider track and lighter/better weight distribution plus a hole list of advantages which i wont bother going into...cause one day i will win lotto:)

R32 GTR Fuse box - particullar fuse = RWD fun :uh-huh:

Starts rainning on track put back fuse! :D

does anyone know where can i get aftermarket gtr style kits for my gtst cheap!!?
Jetspeed in Clayton have a GT-R copy front bar (although I reckon it's way too wide). Also japanese Motorsports in Adelaide (I got mine from there, but it needed a fir bit of extra work to make it strong enough).

And I think places like Autobarn have the rear wings. Or any wrecker (check Zoom1 / HPI advertisers).

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
