Currently I have just the Nismo Aero front bar for my black R34 and want a full bodykit soon. Do you think there would be much of a difference in price between a full Top Secret bodykit and the rest of the Nismo bodykit plus that little extra lip for the front bar?

I know this is probably a long shot but I thought I may as well ask..

Is there a place that can remake your fibreglass bar into a plastic one.. eg they make moulds outta your bar and remake it as urathane or wateva normal bars are.. (dont wanna mod a standard GTR bar as im too cheap atm, looking to sacrafice my bar for a free remade and painted one and they can use the moulds as they wish or give me a % cut of sales whatever is best for me as I think it would be immensly popular having someone local make it)

If not, is there anyone that knows if i can have my bar remade/strengthened? As mine is currently a little thin and tends to flex easy when u push on it and put hairline cracks in certain parts of the paint.

I have a very individual front bar (am yet to see one with the same) Its a westyokohama/ east bear type 3 style gtr front bar but with a top mole for the standard bonnet, instead of being one piece top.

Here is a pic from texi.

Thanks all

You could probably look at getting it re-fibreglassed, i'm not sure where but i know Top Secret Imports have a place they use to cosmetically touch up all their cars that come in from japan as they get a bit scratched up in-transit and at the docks, perhaps you could call them and inquire about it

im surprised no ones looking for a full east bear kit, they look f*kn awesome

i looked, and i found :D

have had no issues with my East Bear lower lip extensions in terms of flex etc... car is low too.

It looks like you left the bumper out in the sun too long and its gone all warped and distorted hahahahaha. or it looks like Bubbas' bottom lip (off the forest gump movie)

Edited by R34 -_-

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
