Well it must look pretty shit then

You modified it obviously which is hardly constructive to what this guy needs

If you want to modify it thats fine you can get it to fit and look good but whats the point when you can buy something straight away that will fit perfect and look better.

looks pretty shit? from what i can see in that picture he fitted it pretty well...and what could look better than a genuine gtr bar if you wanted to have the gtr style?

so your saying that copied ones are better? sure they fit straight on and do the job and theres nothing wrong with that but its up to you if you can wait/want quality or not i reckon.

The whole point is to be practical about it. Will a gtr bar fit without doing some modification. No!

Sure you can trim what ever but thats just extra time and money. A gtr has a wider front so it wont look right with a thinner gtst side body anyway.

When i say it must look shit then i mean if it wasnt modified it would look shit cause the guy was stating it fits without mentioning extra work required,

The whole point of this thread was to give this guy some good advice. If you all honestly believe getting the gtr bar is a better idea then why dont you say it,

that was the point wasn't it.

Are the 33's like 34's? Like if you want a 34GTR front bar u need new bonnet etc etc... or is the reason for changing bonnet on 34's mainly for the front lip on the nose of the bonnet?

I think matt maybe wants to know if it will fit as in buy one and fit it.. otherwise u can say a rb30 will fit on my mountain bike no worries... If its not too much stuffin around with bonnets, guards etc then might be cool, I say if you love it just do it.

Yeah I know what you mean. Thanks for the ideas, that give me a starting point.

Kind of, i know you need to change the guards, to accommodate the wider bumper. Maybe the reo too to suit the FMIC hole.

well travis... try 7-8yrs of these questions.. cause simply put the amount of words (and a pic) you just typed.. it would have been easier to type the word "SEARCH"

so no apologies when i say your a hypocrite...

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
