Skyline R33 Front Bars

[rebelde]

Hi guys,

I am a fresh member and was wondering if you guys could help me out with my queries.

- where is the best place to get a front bar for a reasonable price

- where is the best place to get the front bar painted and put on

- where is the best place to get a modified bonnett

- where can i get updated s2 headlights to go on a s1

Any info would be great,

cheers,

the for sale section here would be a good start though just be careful that the item is in as described condition. Other places in Canberra are J Racing for the front bar, spraying and fitting. a few guys on here have had some work done by them. I took mine to newgel they did an ok price but the quality of work could have been better.

hope that helps a little

ps series 2 lights from nissan are bloody expensive so look for some from a wrecker or the for sale section

You will need new front gaurds too for the series Ii lights, im fairly sure anyway? and a series II bonnet, Bumper etc etc. Just keep that in mind.

Evo have alot of skyline front bars sitting upstairs in their workshop..

hmm i though you only needed front bar, headlights and bonnet maybe do a search on here to find out i think its a common sort of thing people wanting their dull series ones to look like series twos

yeah thats pretty much my reason, im thinking of gettin a s1 1995 and want to make changes to it so, juz sorta lining up my options really

maybe your right, but when i asked a few people about doing a series II conversion they said i needed the gaurds too? Just something to sus out a little more anyway.

Oh and yes, Evo, let me give you a quick example:

I walk in there (17 yr old)

"Hi i would like a price on a rear boot lid for an r33, looks at me $300"

My dad walks in there (40 yr old)

"Hi i would like a price on a rear boot lid for an r33, oh yeah sure, comes with a S2 wing as well ~ $150"

This was two days apart... other then that they've been fine to me. I was just suggesting to go have a look as they had alot of bars upstairs when i went up there...

I think that your sh*t out of luck looking for a front bar or bonnet in Canberra unless you go to J'Racing and talk to Jerry about it (he's not cheap though because he will not do a half assed job) but if you want good parts at a reasonable price for Skylines, call Just Jap auto imports in Kirrawee in Sydney and get Tony or Darren to send you a bar and bonnet and ask them what you need to do to put the headlights in... Trust me when I say that they are the most cluey guys when it comes to Nissans and they will help you out no problems at all.

Also when you get the bar and you want it painted talk to Prestige smash repairs (I think they're in queanbeyan Im not sure tho) cos they resprayed my friends car and it is immaculate (I would know cos I was a new car detailer for 3 years).... Hope I could help man
