Hi guys/girls/those who are in between,

Has anyone fitted a genuine GTR bar to a gtsT? Did it fit properly? Was it to wide? What modifications did you make to the bar/car? And were you happy with the finished product?

With after market fibreglass ones available to fit I'm not to sure about which road to take...

Thanks in advance for your advice, experience and help

yo,

my car is a r32 gts-t with a gtr bar on it. it looks hot much better than the atock one. you will need a gtr reinforcement bar for it to attack but the advantage of the reinforcement is there perfect for attaching fmic's to. oh yeah it fits like 95% perfect, only drawback is the side guards on the gts-t dont line up exactly (see pic in link to see what i mean). part from that its all good.

linxus40 is correct, the good thing about the gtr support is no cutting. regarding the sides unless you no what your looking at you wont really pick it.

heres an old pic of the car, looks a bit different now

How much and where can i hook up a gtr intrusion bar for? I have a copy gtr bar on mine, and it doesn't fit properly, sags a bit under the lights (mainly due to the fact that the previous owner cut the intrusion bar)

The bar was on there when i got the car, im just going through tidying up the many little things that need doing!!!

      I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?

      I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.

      STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
