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??

Edited by Big Fella

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

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
