umm peter also asked me this Q, the only place around are area is carmate right?? LOL ill probably buy it from there and paint/fit it at Xtreme Bodykits in Warwick Farm. You know of any other places??

Also was looking through PowerPlayImports site with their Eastbear conversion kit.. they had nice looking side skirts and rear bar hehe might be anothe option, no idea about cost though

Yeap only carmate that i know of lol

i found a supplier in china who does the full kit for $300 USD + del but unsure of quality and dont want to risk it.

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

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
