A genuine front bar won't cost that much. with $3k only you would have a genuine strong front bar, that would be sufficient enough for front impact crash rating. Not a cheap fibreglass copy for $650 that might get you killed or leave you with $10k repair bill on your car, as these cheap copies are only as strong as paper in the event of an accident.

So, I'm saving for a genuine one. Maybe I'll get that $1800 genuine veilside front bar. Whole kit with side skirts shouldn't cost more than $6k. The E1 style is not bad. Looks like it's using the standard blinkers as well.

I might be willing to part with mine....i've got the full C-I kit minus the flares, I also seem to have the GTR CE-I rear wing instead of the GTS C-I one. Front bar needs a bit of work tho.

GTR-B0Y, any pics of your front bar?

What do u mean the front bar needs work? is it damaged, how bad is the damage?

are the legit ones poly eurathane or carbon fibre? if its carbon then jus go the fakes man, jus make sure the ones you get have a wire mesh underlay (othawise they jus snap and crumble)

the bomex kit i got on my old 180 was 50% aluminum 50% poly eurathane... so basically it made it look good and as solid as stock, maybe veilside do the same.

i always thought that the strength was in the metal reinforcing bumper that your bumper skin sits on, surely the strength of your body kit doesnt matter at all aside from the fact that scrapes may damage some more than others..

yeah in case of an accident of that proportion the chassis is the only thing tha stops you from becomign a sardine... the panels don't have much to do with it.

Getting an original helps when you get into a minor accident... (like the one I jus had where sum kant backed into my bumper) all that happens is that your paint cracks and you get a scuff mark das all... wheras if you had a fibreglass one you'd have a massive crack and you'd have to do some major patching up which costs as much as the panel.

Dont know if this is of any help, may be a bit late but BODYFORM is Lansvale do Veilside kits. Dont know the price but the work is very good. Seen a blue R33 there that had the kit put on and it looked pretty good. Certainly worth a look if you are interested in the Veilside bodykit.......

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
