Hey guys... This is how my front bar looked before http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&id=137112 but now i've got my stock type M front bar cut so i can fit it with the cooler there.. wasnt easy and the front bar really had to be pushed to fit and the bar is kind of pushing the intercooler a bit but yeahh its on there at least lol..

Anywhoo i used to scrape that old front bar because it was really low... but now that ive changed the front bar when u look at the car u can see the cooler pipe under the car and its so low that instead of scraping the front bar, sometimes im scraping the cooler pipe!!!! I had one of my mates install the whole FMIC for me, its not the usuall FMIC piping its the ones where the pipe go around so it didnt require u to cut through the chassis (so i didnt have to get a engineers certificate).. Does anyone know how much it would cost and whats the exact name if i wanted to get a new one of these sets? It would be kind of a waste since i spent $800 for the FMIC installed so i was thinking instead of getting a new cooler and piping and everything, is there a way to get the cooler moved up or get a new pipe made that wouldnt be so low and wouldnt end up costing me heaps? Ive heard aluminium welders could make me one but it would end up costing me heaps so im not too crash hot about doing that..

What are my options here? Im not too intercooler saavy so any help would be great..

Thanks

depending on just how far out it is, you can move it a fair bit without having to cut pipes etc. i had the opposite problem, where my greddy one was too high by about 5 cm. lowered it about 6 without having to change much, just loosen the joiners and give it a try. i did have to make a new bracket tho.
