front bar yes. rear bar no. i only got the front bar because i thought it was what is refered to as a type m front bar (well a fibreglass copy of 1 anyway). i bought it over the phone and i didn't see it till the courier dropped it off. i only had the crappy series 1 front bar. and i was doing my FMIC install that weekend and this was going to look better with a cooler in it. that and i only paid $110 for it. it was damaged, thats why i got it cheap. turned out to be a copy of a bomex front bar.

i was supposed to be getting a set of skirts and pods made by a guy i know thats a fibreglasser by trade (was going to take a mold off another skyline and just make a copy for me), but that hasn't happened (been waiting a few months).

and yes the car does look kinda gumby having on the front bar on. but it does look better than the old front bar, and isn't much lower than a stock bar. i only have stock wheels on it too, since all of my money has been going into making it go faster before i make it look bling. but i want some skirts to make it look a little bit nicer.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
