Pix please. How far? Think about what directions the bar and shafts can move in and you should be able to get an idea of if they're likely to touch.

FWIW i had to grind off the ends for my white line front sway bar as it just touched my driveshafts (GTR)

you can push the bar to the side slightly (i'm assuming it's the bit that goes up over the exhaust as mine was a bit tight too). It will likely mean that the links aren't square to the bar but that isn't as important as maintaining clearance to the diff/tailshaft flange.

I had this problem aswell. Although mine we treid to adjust the links but to no avail. Ended up sending it back, and getting a new one. Guess that could be an option, or maybe play around with the links a bit and see if it will budge just that little bit more. Good luck.

I can fix it easily. Common problem, Nissan have 2 rear crossmembers they use on R32s.. I don't know the reasons why, and they is no telling which models have it.... I can supply the correct rear sway bars if anyone requires them.

will you exchange for the one i have as it is brand new for one that fits??

Eventually you may have to take it back to where you bought it and ask for a refund as it doesn't fit.

But before that, can you please explain the problem in a little more detail. Nissan seemed to have a habit of using different subframes for no logical reason that I have found. Maybe line the standard bar up with the Whiteline bar and tell me where they are different, measurements are always a help.

As for loading pictures, I load them into my SAU gallery and the nlink to them in the thread.

Cheers

    • Cheers fellas, I got a price for a r33 gtst box was 1500 including post and thought it was too cheap  
    • The SS button head cap screw on the back? If so, good to know. I presumed it was there for basic assembly and nothing more. 
    • Hello, everyone. I'm new to the forum. I have a 1989 Nissan Skyline R32 GTR. I have lost all power to the interior, including AC controls, the gauge cluster, turn signals, and windows. Stuff that still works includes the horn, brake lights, radio, and headlights. All fuses, in the interior and exterior boxes, tested good.  It starts and runs fine, just with no gauge power or anything stated above. No warning lights either. Things that I have tested: - Fusable link tested fine - No other fuses blown - Alternator good - IGN switch tested fine - With my power probe, I can backfeed power through the IGN pin to the plug on the back of the gauge cluster, and everything comes back on.    So my theory is something on the control side that sends the ignition power through the system isn't doing its job, or a wire is broken. (I would think that it is the ignition switch that would do that, but who knows?). The ignition relays don't fire (all relays tested good). So what tells them to fire other than the IGN switch?  I would really appreciate it if someone had some insight on this. I have tons of hours into this; I don't want to give up in defeat! I have the HD wiring diagram, but having all those wires laid out like that on one sheet of paper makes things pretty hard to follow.  Thanks for reading, and thanks for the replies.  Where should I look next? Thanks.
    • Install a MAP sensor pre and post throttle. Best data you could have for NA, then play with the bends and/or air box and see how much of inflection is created at WOT on the plot.
