hey fellow qlds

i have been searching the for sale forums and its becoming a pain in the ass.

i just bought a front mount and i now need a different front bar, as i only have the series one stocker and i dont want to cut it up, so theres not gona be much air getting to the cooler!

also, most bars forsale are like is sydney or even further, so its been a struggle trying to get one, also, alot of people advertise then never view their own bloody adds, so it makes things really effeicient.......... :bs!:

so i thought i might direct attention to the queensland section hopeing that sumone might have or know of an aftermarket front bar i could purchase for my r33.

i was chasing a gtr bar, but im open to suggestions?

if i cant find anything than i suppose i will have to go buy a new one:)

i will sell the stocker if anyone needs it aswell

thanks for the help guys, well see how this works!

AFAIK the MSpec front bars are starting to become rare because people keep cutting it up ( :Oops: ) and they are becoming harder and harder to find.

Also, GTR bars dont just fit straight onto GTS-t's as we saw a spray painter figure out. They need some slight/heavy work to make them fit.

Maybe just try some local spray painters that might have one. Or the wreckers... I know people talk about RMA a lot?

hey how much would it cost to get a front bar painted? i dont want some awsome job as the paint on the rest of the car is shit anyway, so i just want id done good enough untill i get a respray?

any places on gold coast i should go to?

rod they wont do a crappy job on the paint even if you ask them too. um i think painted and fitted they were charging around $850? please dont quote me on this because i only got the price for a full kit. the only place that i know down at the coast is Fabtech but is prolly more, you may have to ask a coastie.

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
