Hi Guys,

Need advice on fixing the front bar and fog lights on me r33 series 2.

I spun off at lakeside and just slowly connected the tyre wall. Theres no major damage. just the righe side front bar and right fog light assembly.

Apart from fibre glassing and painting the front ba, I've smashed a fog light(which doesn't get used anyway), and I can only find the whole light assembly for $350 - 500 which is a bit steep.

Or do I buy a aftermarket front bar and forget about the fog light assembly ? cause this would be the cheaper route. If so, do I leagally need indicators on the front of the bar ?

Hope the pic works, what do you reckon I do ?

drop it down to a pannel beater. hard to tell from the pics, but you should be able to get away with just a respray for the front bar

in terms of the fog lights, just be patient. i have seen whole front bars with the fog lights attached sell on here for $200.

may take a month or so, but you will save a fair bit of cash, and will even have a spare sitting in your shed.

i sold my fog lights off my last s2 on here for $100 a pair, so keep an eye out.

hey buddy

sucks about your car

hey a quick question about lakeside... are you able to drift there and whats the go i thought it was closed down!!

ive sussed out the website but i couldnt find much on drifting there and when its open ect... i had a look at the track and i am really really keen to slide it!!

=]

oh and i have a few mates with 33's so ill see if i can find some fog lights for you!!

Thanks guys, I can be patient for those prices.

Lakeside has partially reopened for small track meets, Nose retrictions are in place and they test your car before you can drive.

It needs a resurface, so I think it would be too bumpy to drift on, they are resurfacing soon, so maybe you can drift then. :sleep:

    • Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners
    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
