ill be fitting it either tonight or tomoz nyt. from the looks of it and the measurements that i took off my stock bar i got at home, its pretty close. wont need much to fit perfect. with all the interest in kits if we source a good supplier we might even be able to organise discount prices for forum members but still 220 for most of his bars is cheap and a full kit for 520 plus postage. dont get much cheaper

it is very tuff bar. bought 2-3mm thick not just some flimzy thing. no dips around head lights but it is visible around wheel wells where he has hi filled to cover slight imperfections when being removed from mould but hey its been cleaned up already for me. has some slight little marks on it not in obvious spots but a small amount of hi fill and a sand and ready to prime.

IMHO it is great. highly recommend any1 to purchase his kits if they all have the quality that mine does and also fittment, still havent put it on. will do either later tonight or tomoz.

I've seen a few bodykits in my time - trust me, what you bought is deefinitely at least medium to high-class quality... look at how smooth the texture is and there are no air-bobbles etc... what you have done is saved money for other mods.... well done... only 2 things now... fitment... how does it fit... secondly... is it heavy-duty or will it crack in a couple of months...

But seems great....

You got a link to one of the dude's items??

ground clearance is about the same. i think there is about 3mm difference with the trial sitting slightly lower.

to get a shop to fit, prime and spray probably 400-500. to do your self is easy, just a light rub with 600grit wet/dry, hit it with a primer, you can by them in a can now days from supercheap, rub again with a 800 or finer grit to ensure no marking and hand over to a panel beater to spray. then like 200-250. with fitting its a matter or drilling 4 holes on the side for the gaurds and 2 at the front section for under the grill.

its definitly of a more heavy duty bar, very strong and not flimsy. ill post once i get it fitted today, am working atm but later me and a mate are doing the fittment. easy.

link foir this guys other items: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Brand-new-Trial-Rea...1QQcmdZViewItem

thats for his trial rear bars, but when in there go to view other items from seller and it will have more. or other wise send him an email and he can let you know what he has in stock.

ok guys

i fitted the front bar last nyt and too my shock it fit pretty well. all that was needed for me to do was to drill 6 holes, normal mounting points for bar and it will need a small packer under each headlight to minimize the gap, and cooler hole deepened.

around the guards was perfect. it sat real good. no manipulation needed. indicators sat in the holes correctly and yeh was a good fit. cant forget to mention tho, i had to cut some of the ducting at the back for the cooler to squeese in, it is evident that the bar was designed to be mounted without the front mount and only the standard side mount. no biggy tho, angle grinderworked good.

oh yeh, with regards to d1 slots in the bar, i had to remove some of the reo to allow them to sit right but thats necessary even with the gtr style bar.

and if anyone gets these guys front bars and needs a hand with fittment, im more than happy to help out.

Thanks Cheez Michael Michaels (hi hi hi .... Blades of Glory)... hi hi...

Wow, it looks really nice... from what I can see - the quality is pretty good bro, good job!! You've spent pretty much half of what you were suppose to spend on the bar, paint and fitting - more money for other mods... doesn't it feel good when you spend money well and wisely? Good on ya bro... thanks for offering to help out... Might drop you a PM soon as I might get a new front bar...

Regards matey!!

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
