Jesus... that's another $320, or 60% of the cost of the lip! How hard is it to install yourself? If it is a direct bolt on then I can do that with some mates; as for the paint I think I'll see how black goes first.

How much for delivery? To the Northern Beaches?

It's not hard at all, just a few bolts you could do it yourself with mates

it'd be better if you came and picked it up mate to save you the $$$ you'll fit it in the car. You can pick it up on a Saturday if you like

yeah thats me, just trying trying to source everything out and work out if its cheaper/easier for me to get the whole front bar or just use my original bar and add on the top mole, also trying to work out the bonnet situation, this is the bonnet i like (see attachment) however by the sounds of it if i go for the top mole or gts-r front bar i also have to go with the east bear bonnet in order for it to all fit, also how much for the 2dr side skirts and rear bar

GTR bonnets will work with the top mole.

Might need GTR bonnet hinges though.

If you want to ensure it's right.

Just compare where the bonnet ends on a GTR (look at corner of the lights)

to the GTS-R kit.

Hey everyone, had a big think about the purchase last night... tossing up the $550 with any additional costs for the Front Lip.

The outcome was not good and as such I'm out... sorry Tosh. It's just too expensive for such a part -

Whoever was interested before, you are now open to take it from Tosh...

when my old 34GTT came over from japan it had the stock front bumper with east bear front lip (technically it was IN the car not ON the car). it was damaged during transit (in 2 pieces) and i wanted it fixed and put back on the car because it did look amazing.

amazing - but at a price. its far too low and my car wasn't even that low. i went up a driveway at an angle which obviously wasnt fine enough and it snapped off as easy as taking a lolly from a kid.

make sure its plastic or dont even bother on australian roads....

yeah that front lip attachment might be too low for my car even at stock height since to get to work i need to cross a speed bump (which a mates factory lowered falcon can barly get over) and up a driveway which is basically a gutter. i most likely would have lost the lip the first day arriving at work :D looks awesome though!

that front bar above is different to the one on your website, do you stock that one as well and if so how much?

that one seems to made specifically for the whole gtr front bumper not sure if it would attach to the factory bumper.

The one we quoted you on is the one in the picture above.

I've realised that the one on our website is a photo of the STD Nissan bar with the Top Mole

I'll have to change that

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
