Guys,

I after a GTR Style front bar for a Series 2 R33. I've tried to get one through Carmate but there is a

month wait. My car is at the panel beaters and I'm kinda after one asap. I've called up quite a few places

but can't get a hold of one.

Does anyone know where I could get my hands on one pretty quickly..

Again sorry about the boring topic!

the stock series 2 bar is ace, no other aftermarket front bar looks as good imho. and a gtr bar on it will just look odd, your missing flared guards, different bonnett, twin turbos, 4wd drivetrain etc :)

Does anyone know if the Series 1 bars fit onto the series 2?

Yes it does...

My Banana bar will fit onto a S1 and a S2

Bar doesnt look 100% in this pic as the reo needed to be modified for the bar to fit... This is standard with most aftermarket front bars for a S1 or S2 espec if you have an opening for an Intercooler...

IMO the reason s2's look sweet is cos of there standard front bar, I agree with paul and putting a gtr bar on an s2 also looks odd cos the headlights are sharper on the s2 and it just doesn't really work. The s1 on the other hand is a different story...

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
