Anyone know where to get a Car Bra for my R32 GTS? I need to take it to Sydney from Melb, and its gonna get a ****load of chips in the front.

Has anyone got one on their car? How much did it cost (it doesn't have to be an R32)? Where'd you get it from.

I'm in Victoria, so a local one would help. But all you fellas interstate give me some info, so I can walk into the shop and sound like I know what i'm talking about and some prices to use as a negotiating point.

BTW... if my car's a sports car and I got a car bra for it, does that make it a Sports Bra?

I like my car with bare headlights too, but on long trips the cold weather and sirt tend to get wedged in the cleavings... alright nuff boobie associations...

I absolutely need one for the 880km drive from melb to syd. Chips on black paint show up like crazy... esp pearl black.

I emailed a few places when i first got my R33 and the general response was "sorry we don't make car bras for your model"

funkymonkey, I think the only way you'll be able to find one is to get one custom made which will probably cost big $$$

Found a place that has one for a S14 Silvia and a 300zx... seeing as mines got a similar shape to the locally distributed R32 GTR, shouldn't have too many hassles... I hope. I'll give em a call tommz n check it out.

V64, I'll ask for an r33 as well, maybe if we get one together we can get a discount or sumfinorother...

PS how's the CB's comin along?

I'm sure shell's bras aren't $400-$450... here follows a reply I got from a car bra maker (the one that does 300zx ones)

From:

Hi Shan,

Sorry but we do not have a car bra to suit your car. We can custom make one, however we cannot do this until latte August and the price will be around $400 to $450. (sorry cash makes no difference, we still have to pay GST)

Thanks Dee...

I have one for my GTR, Car Bras in Melb made it for me for $320. They have both 93-96 and 97-on GTR R33 ones. They dont like making them and sending them because they have a perception that all skylines are modified body wise? Anyway I think an R33 GTS with a GTR bar should work. If you are in Melb drop in, they are about 20km north just off the Hume.

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
