amen to plastic bars! What could you pick up an OEM gtr bar for? I'm sure there's someone here that can tell us for sure whether it would fit or not... there might be enough give to get away with it. how about OEM 400r bar :bananaman :hearts: :headbang: We can but dream :D

There are a few japanese body kit makers that manufacture kits in ABS plastic and are as forgiviing as the original plastic bumpers.

To locate them go out and buy the latest option magazine, or hyper rev magazine and u should be able to locate them.

Cost is usually in the region of 1.8k i tink (excluding freight and taxes)

not sure who makes it but i saw a add in either ralph. autosalon or something similar a while back, about plastic bars, that can bend and contort, and not get damaged, they had a bar being fully twisted and it went back into place perfectly, i think they were expensive though, around 3k if i remember.

    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo :-D

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
