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 -_-

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
