I originally had a TRIAL front bar on my 33gts, left my car about 85mm off the ground when I wasnt in there. (I weigh 70kg and car has standard springs)

My mate modified it, did an awsome job. Took off everything below the middle holes in the kit. My car doesn't look as mean :O

lol, I want to buy another front spoiler. My driveway is a gutter... so grats Algester. It cant be to low.

I'm looking at

400R

Veilside

Top Secret

or try again with my Trial front...

I just want a meaner looking car again! :'( /sad

all of the aftermarket one will be at least as low as the trial one I would say...

save your money and save for rims and suspension or rims...

or better still if you want looks go custom designed car graphics...

+1 with 75 coupe.

bigger rims lifts car off ground some more so it can help the front bar get less damage. and suspension changes will help too.

and ++++1 for the top secret!! i want it too

there is always 1 on ebay. check it out.

PS ur mate did a decent job on the change to the front bar. good work.

I was looking at buying one off eBay (the whole kit) for 550$ I think off the top of my head...

The guy is in brisbane also so 1 day delivery - Get my mate to paint them again hehe.

If its just as low as the trial I probably won't be able to go for it then :'(

But maybe it's a good reason to get large rims as well :(

I honestly thought though, that the top secret front wouldn't be as high as the trial... you just broke my bubble man!!!

umm bigger rims will not lift your car off the ground, if it does then you will have other problems like speedo calibration and wouldn't that also change your cars handling as well..,

larger diameter rims means lower profile tyres, so you the cars height won't/shouldn't change...

Take the front bar off & go the drift look....

They look decent... but not exactly what I am looking for. There is a dude on ebay that sells new kits - seems really good for great prices. Just got to paint myself and that is 0 problem-a.

I still really want to know which is lower to the ground:

Trial or Top Secret

Becuase I did like my trial... but then again I did get it modded becuase it was just so low lol. Even if the top secret was say... 20mm higher or something that would be perfect... *prays*

A little off topic richie, but do you have any side on shots of your car? I'm looking for skirts to go with my trial front, but i can't seem to find many examples with the same front.

Stay with the trial front btw, it's the best one imo - not too over the top, but still pretty badass.

Yeh I know... just ONE of my mates convinced me to have it cut so it wasnt so low.

I'm really thinking hard about just buying a new trial front lol...

Also, I dont really have any side pictures, but I am just using the standard sides

http://mezmamedia.com/richie/photos/skylin...u/skyline_2.jpg that would be the most side on one I have.

But, if you are looking for sides, I think these ones look pretty nice:

Have a look at that dudes ebay shop...

The top secret sides look pretty cool to:

    • 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
