Well it must look pretty shit then

You modified it obviously which is hardly constructive to what this guy needs

If you want to modify it thats fine you can get it to fit and look good but whats the point when you can buy something straight away that will fit perfect and look better.

looks pretty shit? from what i can see in that picture he fitted it pretty well...and what could look better than a genuine gtr bar if you wanted to have the gtr style?

so your saying that copied ones are better? sure they fit straight on and do the job and theres nothing wrong with that but its up to you if you can wait/want quality or not i reckon.

The whole point is to be practical about it. Will a gtr bar fit without doing some modification. No!

Sure you can trim what ever but thats just extra time and money. A gtr has a wider front so it wont look right with a thinner gtst side body anyway.

When i say it must look shit then i mean if it wasnt modified it would look shit cause the guy was stating it fits without mentioning extra work required,

The whole point of this thread was to give this guy some good advice. If you all honestly believe getting the gtr bar is a better idea then why dont you say it,

that was the point wasn't it.

Are the 33's like 34's? Like if you want a 34GTR front bar u need new bonnet etc etc... or is the reason for changing bonnet on 34's mainly for the front lip on the nose of the bonnet?

I think matt maybe wants to know if it will fit as in buy one and fit it.. otherwise u can say a rb30 will fit on my mountain bike no worries... If its not too much stuffin around with bonnets, guards etc then might be cool, I say if you love it just do it.

Kind of, i know you need to change the guards, to accommodate the wider bumper. Maybe the reo too to suit the FMIC hole.

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
