hi guys anyone know of a place in sydney where i could get hold of a gtr style bar to fit r32 gts-t. not a dodgy looking one and preferably not one that costs like $400 +++ thanks fellaz

Just bare in mind when it comes to fibreglass bars you usually get what you pay for.

A lot of cheapo bars require a lot of work to get them up to scratch and ready for fitting and painting and quite often the extra expense of doing this adds up to more than it would have cost you to pay that little bit more for a good quality strong bar in the first place :)

well your options are as follows:

1 - get a new fibreglass bar from justjap/carmate/jetspeed for $500

2 - get a new original bar from nissan for $1000

3 - find a secondhand original GTR bar on SAU for around $300

4 - find a secondhand fibreglass bar on SAU for like $200

i think option 3 is the best option. original plastic GTR bars fit the GTSt no worries. you take a risk with any second-hand fibreglass bumper

if you max price range is $400 then you haven't got many options. keep in mind that you will have to get it painted and that might cost around $200 also..

good luck,

Warren

what is your opinion of the quality of the copies that just jap do for gtst's?

I am thinking of getting one of them for my car but want to make sure it will look the goods!...Think they are about 500ish.

My painter was impressed with the quality of the bar and its raw finish - Its very sturdy, not like some of the flimsy fibreglass shit I have seen around.

hmmm looks good mate *blitz*, i would like to know where i could get a plastic one from then, would it mount using std reo? or need gtr reo? ive rang a few wreakers and most dont wana sell em, heavin forbid a wrecker should sell some skyline parts i mean jeez. anyways ive anyone knows of a plastic original bar then sounds like its the go, i realy want the gtr bar not just for looks but the mouth is much bigger then mine, with my cooler im loosin bout 3-4inches behind the bumper reo! not gettin airflow.

The factory BNR32 plastic bar is the best option, no doubt - The problem is finding one at the right price. They pop up occasionally on SAU but are usually snapped up very quickly and they can still fetch pretty decent money.

yeah my stock bar was hacked with my stock bumper

but when i put on an original GTR bumper, no cutting at all was required :D

they can be had for cheap, i paid $250 for mine but snapped it up the day it was advertised...

and as for the reo, cutting depends on if the bumper has the N1 holes or not. if yes, then reo cutting or finding a GTR reo is a must

cheers,

Warren

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
