Here are some pics of front bars which I am confused about.

The grey one is the type that was on my car when i got it from Japan. Most GTS-ts I have seen have this one. Unfortunately, after an front end accident, it was replaced with a "genuine" Type M front bar from Nissan Australia. It looked kinda like the black one. At the time i didnt raise a fuss about the different bars because I just wanted my car back from the smash repairs.

But i have just had another crash in the same spot and will be replacing the front bar again. I wanna get one like it was originally (as they look so much better). Therefore if anyone knows the different part numbers for the two bars that would be a great help.

Also curious to know if anyone else has seen the black type around.

thrtytwo my car is also a Type M according to FAST! :laugh:

The Nissan Australia guy who ordered the parts told me that the black type bar was the one that came with the car originally. Either that or he was covering his arse for ordering the wrong one from Japan!

At the smash repairers the guy compared the two and pointed out that the original (grey) one had nothing on it to indicate that it was a genuine nissan part. It also seemed to be made out of a different material so he thought it must have been aftermarket.

If anyone can come up with the part numbers for the different R32 front bars that would be a big help. Parts will be getting ordered for my car shortly.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
