My car will sport this kit at one point in my lifetime. This I solemnly swear.

BN Sport, URAS, TBO, Aeromaster, Final Konnexion, D-Max.... y'all can GTFO. GTO-RS win.

That is all.

Now... here's the porn:

whats with the trailer lights stuck on the headlights as indicators lol and shitty welding around the strut towers meh the kit dosent do much for me im afraid

Trailer lights stuck on the headlights as indicators...? Don't know what you are smoking but all I see is factory cefiro indicators.

Shitty welding around the towers is stitch welding (aka seam welding) improves structural rigidity, agreed the welding could look better but meh.

I think the kit would look better if it wasn't soo low to the ground, and the actual car was lower.

zomg... A31RB25... its the same front bumper as the one in your avatar. What is it?

it's not the same front bumper. the one in my avatar is an old Workshop X front bar from NZ. doesn't have the same GTR style air intakes in the centre of the bar as the GTO kit, nor does it have the same air intakes either side of the bar (as far as i can tell). the WSX kit also appears to have a smaller section above the cooler. both look to be based on the R33 400R kit, as somebody else mentioned

the GTO bar would look so much better in 1 colour (the rest of the kit probably would too)

hehe guess I'll just settle for the Workshop X fronto bamparu. not a fan of their chunky sides and no rear look tho. wish someone local made some sideskirts that didn't come out at 45 degrees like Uras n BN etc. like a vertex I suppose.

Guest a31rb25

the WSX kit is still made them. they updated the design a few years back, there's a shitload of pics of the newer front bar getting about, pretty sure most people on here would have seen a pic of one on a laurel or ceffy in NZ.

when i looked into getting one the kit was approx $800 and that was without a rear bar, and before freight.

I like it. Looks tough and a bit different.

The SR is a bit gay, but it has a nice trust snail hanging up off it so it makes up for the SRs gayness.

In all, a freakin tough looking car. Those pics dont really do it justice.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
