you can buy fibreglass copies of the GTR bar that are designed to fit the GTSt from:

www.justjap.com

www.jetspeed.com.au

www.carmate.com.au

personally i would go with justjap for their sheer brilliant customer service

OR

you can buy an original GTR bar that's ABS plastic and it fits perfectly on teh GTSt.. that's what i just did! better quality but hard to find in good condition..

The originak GTR bar is polypropylene, not ABS. And its not a perfect fit. My intercooler doesnt sit flush with the bar as the bar isnt deep enough...and it doesnt align properly with the wheel guard...but is close. I had a guy plastic weld and modify mine, so its looking pretty good. I woyuld have rather a GTSt bar but i couldnt find one in good nic :(

...oh and dont use Carmate

Fibreglass Gtr Bar to suit gtst from JS Auto Imports. fit well and weel priced. about $500 with N1 vents.

i just had mine installed troy, and it fits like the gtst bar did.. really nicely!

my bad on the ABS.. can we just go with an umbrella term like "its plastic" then..

oh, and did you get those pics i sent? i never got a reply from you!

Id be interested to see the fit of the std GTR bar around where it bolts to the inner guard. When i lined mine up the edge didnt sit flush with the line of the guard. Only monir, but since i was going to the troublwe of getting it resprayed i figured i wanted it to be a better fit.

Yeh got the pics...ordering after i get my car registered

roy,

mine fit well.. i don't think i'm that much of a perfectionist with some things so what i call "fits well" and what you call "fits well" might be different..

there's a small gap between the bumper and the guard, but it bolts onto all the other parts of the front perfectly..

the reo had to be cut for the N1 holes but that's it

i'll get some pics soon hopefully...

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
