Tell me the truth - R324 conversion - ever possible to look good? - Page 4 - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

well some nice looking examples people posted here.

looks like...it depends on how much your willing to spend..

at the end of the day, if i had an R34 GT-R...i would never change the kit on it. with veilside or any other crap

it ruins the original genuine look........

i can understand dodgy stupid looking GTS-t or GT-T putting aftermarket kits...coz those cars look shit house stock.

but never on any GT-R...r32, 33 & 34

on this one ( YouTube - Nissan Skyline B324R ) the front looks nice and fresh but as it goes round to the back that change of old and new just doesnt seem right , back needs some updating in styling to a newer way to make it work i think as just the after market rear i dont think does the front any justice .

but in a way i still cant deside bad or good though from that .

just my opinion though thats all

I am liking the R334, i do like the classic old skool look of the R32, but yes the back end does need something to bring it in-line with the front.
The R33 with the more rounded back goes well with the R334

Having seen an R334 up close for me it just doesn't work. The soft lines of the R33 are a complete contrast to the angular lines of the R34.

vase · 12th January 2009, 04:44 PM

I also think the back end looks a little weird but not too much. All in all the kit looks ok. I must say, however, that if it is possible to get a bnr34 registered in your country that is what you should go for. And if you can't afford one then just stick with the nice looks of the bnr32. Afterall the bnr32 looks quite legen...wait for it..DARY!

The r324 kit is nice but at the end of the day it's just a bnr34 copy although many people think otherwise.

Exactly the 32 has a boxier/sharper shape similar to the 34 thats why it pulls it off.

zell · 24th January 2009, 06:28 PM

After seeing the youtube video I started to like the idea of cheap R32 with the nice looks of R34

But I like this idea done on a GTST, GTR doesn't need R34 body to look business

stealth · 24th January 2009, 06:38 PM

I have never liked the rear lights on the 32 ,they look bad imo ,would look better done more like the 33 ,closser together with out the indicator cut in the center.

freakazoid3 · 2nd February 2009, 09:30 PM

I love the R32 rear lights, they're almost like the cars signature.... 4 Round red light glowing in the dark

I love the boxy shape of the R32 aswell, to me she's the one to have in the skyline range.
She's the first skyline made as we know them today

big nono for me too.

Hey Archaeic_bloke and DomoKun.

I am that Canadian R34 Replica guy. Canada does have the 15 year import rule, so nothing newer than 1994/03 can enter this country legally.

Here are some more updates on my build:

Painted KY0 Ztune Silver

been claimed, best conversion in the world.....

If I can help you out with some photoshops and recommandations , just let me know.
