I think i just made a mess in my pants..

i have a black R33 aswell.

always wanted to know what a carbon boot would look like.

Check Carmate and Viva Garage..both prices a fairly diff..quality wise..well..you'll just have to try it out!

carmate in sydney is where i got mine. a whole new fibreglass boot lid for a couple of hundred if i recall.

here's a pic from when i first got it. The pic is extremely old, i still have my old rear bar and no work done to the car yet but gives you an idea. the quality i'm quite happy with.

Dude.... I want that rear bar.

I bought one off ebay (silly me) and it doesnt fit...... Where can I get a rear VS bar like that, that will actually fit my r33 and how much should I pay???

don't get one! mine wasn't any good either! i'm a bit over veilside now anyways but at the time i picked it up from a place called pulse autostyling, who i don't think are in business anymore but were in south east melbourne.

where are you from shaun_perry?

if in melbourne, freddy from topstage.com.au can customize you anything you can dream of! or help you dream of something! check out this latest bar on my 33, with the flush boot all painted and finished... :)

I looked around for one of these for a while and Viva Garage did on in carbon and (no offense) doesnt fit like shaunsr33 one either. I saw pictures of them installed on some r33's and they came out the same way. You better off paying $200 for the Stealth Wing man.

If you want one that will fit, powerplay imports can get a genuine east bear one, but be prepared to pay for the privelidge....

Alternately, if you just want the look you could take it to topstage or similar and get them to fill the toop with glass to make it flush (as a bonus you know it's going to fit)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
