Garland you can try to get a hold of Josh by going down to Taren Point.. that's what i had to do. However, there's no certainty he will be there lol

thanks Shenan. lol but by the looks of things of what ppl had wrote here i think theres def no chance for me to ever own a ztune style front bar :blush:

Aznbongsta is that the frontbar from that Ebay dude (mybodykits or something like that) ? How's the quality of the front ..did it need a lot of modifying? easy to paint or did you get that typical fibreglass ripple look after painting?

my front is bugging me too as its higher than the sideskirts and rearbar ... stock frontbar. But I don't want a superlow frontbar thats impractical for a daily or something that cracks easily... There's really not that much choice out there for R34s is there :)

Theres always that nissan optional factory lip but I'm not into the whole snowplough look and plus they're so rare it's not worth even looking for one.

Hi Delta Force. Yes that bar is from him.

The quality? i would have no idea, its my first fibreglass item so i got nothing to compare it to.

Nothing to mod at all unless your talking about my own personal mod i did, ALso my first time.

Painting? no idea either, just went to get quotes and my panel beater did the rest.

Ripples? no idea as well, looks good to me, like a normal panel to me.

Thanks mate sounds like it's probably of decent quality then. How do you find it for daily duties? Too impractical for everyday driving or ok ?

Parking is a bugger, driving is a bugger, its sits alot alower than the stock bumper probably around 5-7cm lower.

So pretty impratical but for the looks its worth it. Haha

could you do me a favour and measure height of the bar from just under the parker light downwards to the end of the lip ? When I asked the seller he said it's only 23mm lower than the stock bar which doesn't sound too low at all (unless your front suspension is lowered a lot)

edit: also from bonnet down to the end of the bottom lip too please if you can

Aznbongsta,

I was thinking about doing the exact same mods to that bar from ebay, looks great now that i see the mods done. did you have to open up the blinker holes to get them to sit in there also? it doesnt look like they would fit unless you open up the hole... any more pics of it from the front?

also, is it two piece or one piece? i looks like you have some string holding the lip together with the bar?

  • 4 weeks later...

For looks i give it 2 thumbs up but it hurts the hip pocket a bit.

$5 HUNDRED AND 7 Tee 3 DOLLARS....a little bit rich considering most full kits available are copies and it would be kinda silly to go genuine on a lip.

also i think aznbongsta just painted the lower section black, anyhow it looks awesome as it is...well done

    • 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
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
