Hey guys, I have a bit of a problem. I am looking to get a Trust front bar and Explosive side skirts, but because of my dual cannons, I am having trouble finding a rear bar that is not only going to make me satisfied, but fit the rest of the kit. Does anyone have any suggestions? I am not interested in removing one of the cannons, even though it is a weird look, it has grown on me and I like it, even if it is a bit rice :P

My advice to you is a veilside combat rear bar, or pretty much any rear bar with the the right modifications it will accomadate the duals.

Which bars are you looking at getting?

TR front bar and explosive side skirts, taking the wing off and putting either a stelth or 'drift' wing on it.

I just don't want to have to cut into a bar and make it look home made. Looks like I am going to have to get something custom made.

I have a Veilside rear bar on mine ready for twin exhausts to be fitted, it required a hole to be cut in the rear bar on the right hand side, as well as removing the spare wheel and cutting out a large section of the metal under it in order to make room for the muffler to line up with the bar properly.

how did you go with the engineering of such a modification to the crumple zone in the rear of the car?

I wouldn't think it would be an issue. The reo etc are untouched, just the thin metal of the spare wheel well cut and a box section welded in it's place.

    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
    • no one recommending speedtek gearsets?   i'm in the same boat as Cosline but rwd, I am holding boost back in third to 600nm at the hubs to save the gear as i make nearly 750nm at the hubs on a mainline
