Need your opinions guys!

Have researched this topics and this is what has led me to this.

Am looking for a front lip for my R34 GTT Skyline with the stock bar.

I believe you can get the V Spec style lip for GTT's from East Bear? However it's discontinued on Nengun. Is there anywhere else I can get this?

Other options are below as follow:

Will the front lip from the Nismo bar (from vivagarage) fit the stock bar? Even with some modifying, or are the bars to fit onto simply to different?

Other option is the Uras/D1 style front lip, also from vivagarage:

Anybody have any issues/opinions on the above lip, specifically regarding fitment/install? I believe several forum members have fitted these style lips, however all the threads I spotted them in were several years old and I didn't want to go thread reviving.

Would obviously prefer something more like the V Spec lip, however am welcome to any advice!

Thanks.

Rhino Lip is the cheapest option and survives the curb rash: http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367338-diy-universal-lip/?p=7167621

Mine is starting to get a little ragged now after two years but will last another year at least. Hard lip would have been long gone by now with them bloody speed bumps.

Obviously it does little for actual aero but I'm not sure a hard lip does that much either...

Edit: Photos from 2014:

The series 1 bumper with the silver lip looks great! Not keen on the black part underneath though

Just a matter of finding one now! So difficult to find. Was hoping i'd be able to modify an OEM GTR one or the Viva Garage lip that fits the Nismo bar. So far, unsure!

Just installed a viva garage D1 / uras copy lip this weekend on my 34, fit perfectly, was pleasantly surprised actually, was expecting the worst but turned out nice!

Glad you let me know as I'm about to buy one in the next week or so! Did you paint it? If so, how did you do it & what colour? Any photos? Pleased it fit properly, was worried about potential fitment!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
