Hi all,

It's been a while since I've posted here again...busy with work and other stuff, I guess...well, my front bar is so cracked that it's not worth fixing, so it is time to get a new front bar...I've done so snooping around and I've decided to go with the Top-Secret style front bar - what do you guys think?

However, unlike the GTR front bar, the front gaps where the front indicators go is so large, I am thinking of leaving it bare to expose my intercoolers' piping, but this raises the question where the heck do I put the front indicators then? Any suggestions fellas? I was thinking of drilling two holes at the front close to the intercooler and put them there (a bit like the 400R style front bars)...what do you guys think?

Then again, some people put tiny rectangular-looking front indicators just on the corners of those huge gaps...where can I get these those? Hence, I need as much advice as I can get...thanks...

Dont do it mate, If you ever get defected you will need to put the parkers back and then fit indicators. Do it properly the first time. Go to autobarn, you can buy small led indicators for like $30. Solder the wires and your done.

love this front bar :P im guessin for parker/indicator just hook up the wires from the indicator to the parker bulb housing, change to orange LED and bingo! could be wrong. might need some other parts but thats how it works in my head :s lol. personally, i wouldnt do the whole blinker where the parker is. as Kris said, defect will be a problem. id find some nice looking LED lights from an electronics shop/autobarn/supercheap etc and chuck those on. u could even make ur own with parts from Jaycar.

Hi mate,

So Autobarn sells indicators? Never knew that.

Cheers.

this guy has indicators, easy peasy to install and they look nice and neat.

Yeah, I guess it's pretty easy to hook up, but the question is where can I get these indicators from?

places like Auto one and Repco sell all sorts of universal indicators like that

just go in and pic the shape and size you need

Oh ok, I never knew Reco and Autobarn sell stuff like universal indicators. Cool, thanks mate...I'll go in and pick out something...cheers.

incorrect globe wattage or globe out...

as far as legalities are concerened... some people drill a hole in their highbeams and put the parkers in there...

personally i cant see a cop ever pulling me over because he noticed i dont have parkers..... srsly

sometimes if your indicators flash too quickly, the cops can think you have an indicator out, and pull you over to warn you. Happens quite frequently when you change to LED indicators without the right wattage or resistance.

Ok fellas, well I went to Repco and bought some slim front indicators for $18 each, they look awesome...so flush at the front where the big round things were...makes the GTR front bar look so much better.

i got some slimline ones and put them in the nostrils... and then tinted them.. you could hardly tell, and they were completly legal.

Wow, interesting concept...got pics??? :)

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
