Up for sale is a set of R33 GTR sway bars.

I bought these off bubba a while back and they don't fit my car(Auto)

They will fit manual C34 series 1 or 2 stagea.

(please dont turn this into an argument about what swaybars fit what car)

the rear is 22 or 24mm solid from memory, a great upgrade over the standard 17mm hollow bar.

Selling them for less than i paid for them.

Rear sway bar comes with rubbers, u bolts and links to suit.

$150 + postage

Located south of Adelaide

Pm or call me - 0423 10 11 10

Firstly I'm genuinely interested in this item.... However Im unsure as to if these will fit my car, why doesn't it fit your auto? Whats different from the auto and manual rear sway bars.

Also for the record RS4's were NEVER sold in a manual.

it's all about that rear cradle and the extra width that the autos have. i have heard of people putting the sway bar links on mad angles and this didn't really worry me but on my car i couldn't get the u bolts in.

When i bolt one side on, the other side was a full bolt hole off, if you were to bolt them up like this, the rubbers would be sitting on the corners of the sway bar, not the straight section.

Anyone is more than welcome to come and put there car on my hoist and have a look, if you think you can make it work and deal with the link angles, you are more than welcome to buy them

p.s whats with the random rs4 fact??

looking at my mates rs4s his rear sway bar was only 19mm, so it would be an upgrade for sure.

Just measured the 33 gtr sway bars

front is 22mm solid

rear is 27mm solid

here is the issue for auto stageas, the right side is bolted up and the lsft hand side is way off.

the right side is shwon here, right on the edge of the straight section

and this is how far off the left side is

i was planning to make a 5mm thick plate for each side, with 2 threaded holes and thru holes to mount it up, but i've run out of time and motivation

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
