Hey Guys,

Just about to install a FMIC and dont have the cash to get a decent front bar. What would my front bar look like with a FMIC. Can I cut the front bits out at all? I would like to remove the centre bits but dont want it too look stupid. I think it might because the driving light/blinker assembly is not "surrounded" by the bumper.

I searched google images for hours looking for a pic of someone with my front bar and a cut-out for a front mount but came up bupkis.

Thanx in advance guys

Sam

doods has that same bar with a fmic. dont think he has cut the bar, just pops out the bottom a little. he should be able to answer any questions for you

me?

umm check pics of my car somewhere (in my blog).

I cut the front bar alot. But meh I dont care how the car looks lol :)

Its not the best job, could have pushed the FMIC back abit more and tidied up it more. But meh!

one pic here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...st&id=45471

Doesn't have to be computer generated ;) As you can see the whole centre isn't taken out because it would look crap unless done properly, and even then that will cost you money so you may as well get a different bumper! I don;t have a problem with the way it looks tbh.

    • They are, a good friend of mine bought one to replace his blow factory turbo, running a Toshi Tune reflash. Just use their supplied water/oil lines and you're good to go. At the time, they were like $900 delivered.
    • This is an option for 100% bolt on, the GCG high flow -  https://gcg.com.au/turbo-charger-upgrade-skyline-gtst-2iu-xtrgts-s1.html Also, I'm pretty sure hypergear does a high flow that is 100% bolt on, it just doesn't make as much power as their bigger high flows.  Even if you get a hypergear turbo that requires you to chance the intake piping, it is a really simple modification. It can be as simple as a piece of silicon hose and you pop a filter on the end. It doesn't have to be some crazy pie cut titanium work of art intake pipe.  If you have the ability to swap the turbo yourself, you would be able to sort the intake piping out. 
    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?
