I've had a veilside front bar in the past (on a silvia though) and found that once I lowerd the car it was far too low. Even with 17 inch rims, I found myself hitting every thing. But I guess if your into DIY fixing front bars then go for it...

Also while looking for my bar, I came across some real nasty one's. As with any kit, have a good look around, I payed top dollar for the one I bought, and even that needed hours of work to fit right.

I have one, and I love the look of it but it did take awhile to get used to it. The only prob with them is the fact that they stick out a long way past the stock ones. My car is not lowwered and the bar is a fair way of the ground but it still scraps on everything because the front of it is so far forward of the wheels...

First of all, P1E they're not ungly, just looks really eeevil! *in dr evils voice*. yea any how GunMetalR33 ur ride looks schmik, can you still get over the average shopping centre speed humps, i doubt u can if its lowered right. And that doesn't scrap the bottom of a steep road does it?

cheers mate.

oh yea adding a side skirt will make ur ride even fatter. :wassup:

The car is at the shop right now getting the skirts put on :)

Back to your question, If you take it easy you should be right on most things. My driveways is steep into my garage and i need wood ramps to get it in. But on the road and in car parks you should have no probs.

First of all, P1E they're not ungly, just looks really eeevil! *in dr evils voice*. :

in dr evils voice: how bout no ya crazy dutch bastard? :aroused:

i generally like Veilside gear, but the R33 front in my oppinion is UGLY.

love the veilside rear bar though

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
