hah, i bought a GTR bar cheap a few days ago with the idea of doing this as i have just installed a fmic.. it appears to line up fine, however id say it needs the GTR crash support as the GTST one does not line up at all, and no amount of hacking/cutting looks like it will make it.. i drive a 33 however, im not sure if its the same for a 32. on a side note im thinking of keeping the stocker front bar over the GTR bar cus in my oppinion you just cant beat that sleeper look :P

pics anyone thinking of doing this on a 4 door

Got a mate with Vertex kit on his four door, and GTR front bar... will get pics, can be done. Was thinking of doing on mine, but genuine GTR bar too much compared to my Vertex one.

does any one know of anywere to pic up cheap fibreglass copys

define cheap..

they can be had for about $400-450 brand new from:

www.carmate.com.au

www.jetspeed.com.au

www.justjap.com.au

i am also itnerested in putting a GTR bar on my car, but despite seeing that pic i'm still not convinvced. I have psoken to a person who bought a GTR bar for their R32 and it simply didn't fit at all.

Maybe its possible to get the stock plastic one modified (ie a bit of plastic removed to reduce the width) so that it fits properly?

cheers,

Warren.

^^ what he said...

also if you use a genuine GTR bar, if you use a genuine GTR bumper support (ie reo) you won't have to bend anything in the front, just the sides so they meet up witht he guards. The most common thing you see with R32 GTR bumpers on GTSt's is the 1cm or so gap under the headlights where the bumper bends.

You can avoid that by using a genuine GTR bumper support.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
