Have been looking for a replacement front bar but can't finf one that looks the same as the original, the closest I can find is the "N Style" bar from carmate, empire aero etc.

Has anyone seen a replacement bar similiar to the attached photo, barring an original from Nissan (to pricey) the bar is pretty well had it (dead kangaroo on the middle of the road) but the black plastic piece between the bar and the diffuser is allright and can be used again.

I preffer the look of the original bar with the black plastic section as opposed to the one piece one colour of the N Style bar but can't find a replacement one similiar to the original.

.

edit second attached photo is the one I am trying to find, if anyone knows if someone makes a copy please let me know where and who. Thanks

Thanks for the link 10 4, no luck there.

Turns out the front bar I wrecked was a Nismo bar, not the original bar as I thought.

Might be worth trying to get it repaired as it was a good fit for a fiberglass bar, failing that then the N Style bars might be my best bet.

if you want a copy, get it from bodyform aero

True...

Peter at Bodyform Aero has a 'dig' at other ppl's ill-fitting aftermarket bars.

+1 got my front from them and it fitted first time and is pretty strong, good place to buy from

Don't get fibreglass.... its crap and chips easily - looks bad...

try http://www.skylinesa..._1#entry5752743 ? Might get lucky...

Only if it's cheaply made man, fiberglass is strong stuff when it's made properly.

    • This. A 3d wheel alignment is like $120...just take it to the shop. Since theres probably multiple adjustments that need to be made after changing something. Mine has front/rear lower arms, traction rods, tension rods, camber arms, toe arms, front upper arms, hicas kit, sway bars and coilovers. I measure from the edge of the bolt holes on the originals and set the same length on all the adjustable stuff to dial it as close as I could to OEM. Took it straight for alignment; it didnt feel right at all...after alignment, it feels perfect. Similarly i've just changed the springs on another car; and I still needed multiple adjustments to bring it back in spec.

    • Its a well known brand in New Zealand; its a rebrand of the Rhino RAV3.  I don't know what the wiring difference *is* between the rev.1 (installed about 15 years ago) and rev.2; but as you say I would think its reasonable that it uses the same immobiliser relay circuits. I had a look but couldnt see a similar harness; but didnt move things around since I didnt want to mess with it   It was one of AVS well known Authorised Installers; I spoke to AVS themselves about it but theyre unsure hence seeking advice more so from the skyline community who are more familiar with the actual car and its wiring. Im in Auckland; but the installer is on the other side of the city so hes very reluctant to come back to even look at it to confirm something isnt connected into the wrong wire.  I dont want to drop the name since they *did* do a really good job for the most part. Everything is very tidy and he fully replaced all the alarm wiring, all the sensors, the wiring to the door motors, installed a switch which was never installed in the first place...really happy with the alarm install itself..just not this one issue. We all make mistakes, if it is the alarm, I just want my fuel pump getting proper switched, fused, power as it was; without having to shell out for an auto electrician to switch a wire and tell me it was the alarm. 
    • Even with the piston at TDC there was room for it to drop, but I don't think it can drop fully into the cylinder, the problem you have is that you need something pushing against the valve to hold it up so you have enough room to put the new stem seal on and the spring etc.  I used compressed air only because putting rope in the cylinder seemed a bit risky to me, I know people have done it countless times before like this. Overall it's a pain in the ass job. Honestly you'd probably be better off taking the head off because the risk of dropping something in the engine and the finicky-ness of it all is very stressful. If you are going to attempt it though i 10000% recommend a 36050 valve spring/keeper tool. I had both the traditional lever type and after doing 1 cylinder it was absolute pain to get those valve keepers in place, even with 2 people. That 36050 is amazing, you do have to push hard to get them in place but it works perfectly almost every time. Back to my actual issue I think my engine is just tired and old and the rings have gone bad. The comp numbers (cold, no oil) were: Cyl 1 -129psi Cyl 2 - 133psi Cyl 3 - 138psi Cyl 4 - 137psi Cyl 5 - 157psi Cyl 6 - 142psi   Cylinder 5 and 6 having the most carbon on them.
    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
