hey all

just wondering

a) where is the best place to get a standard r33 front bar

b) is there a difference between the s1 and s2 front bars, and which looks better

and c) is there a workshop where i can rock up, give them the new oem bar, get them to cut out the hole for the intercooler, paint the bar then pop rivet an aluminium scuff plate to the bottom of it? it drags on gravel a bit, due to the incline of my works carpark.

I hear Newgel are ok, only because they managed to mount a Evo 3 front bar onto a honda civic (prev. owners decision).

You can try J racing aswell, as they even make their own body kits and from what ive seem they look like, so modding a standard shouldnt be a problem for them.

Hey Matt I have a S1 front bar in maroon from my R33 GTS and it's sitting in my backyard or garage somewhere. I can take a pic and see if it's what you're after. It's the factory original stocker, nothing wrong with it I just changed it for a different style kit few years back.

Ew Newgel, over my dead body would any of those places touch anything going on my car.

once you get the front bar go to super audio in phillop,

they do everything, and anything you want, they quoted me me a grand cheaper then j racing, and they are fixing my hole kit and re spraying and putting a pearl on it..

and new gel was even more exspensive, i'm not knocking newgel of j racing.

i personal no the quality of the work super audio do..

Good luck.

    • You know the worst thing about acquiring more space for me? I tend to acquire more things to fill the space...
    • Ended up spending a WHOLE day yesterday cleaning and rearranging my shed.  Due to the aforementioned disorder, my shed is as cluttered and confused as my brain. Again, because of said disorder,  at any one time there are 5 projects on the go at once and because they're still on the go I don't put everything away so I can "get straight back to it" which rarely happens.. So anyway,  I bought a couple of cheap 2mx2m all steel "pallet racks" to put in my back shed.  The idea is to then take pretty much everything out of the main shed that isn't car related. Most of the garden and building stuff is now booted out to the back shed and onto to the shelves where they belong! There's still more rearranging and reallocating to do and it's still a bit busy in there but it's a massive improvement on how it was previously. I've discovered floor space I forgot I had...  For those that have fully dismantled a car before will understand just how much space it takes up!  Particularly panels, bumpers, engine/trans, etc.  I've got stuff hanging on every available wall to get it up off the floor!  This is not exciting content for a blog but has certainly made the shed feel like a more work ready space now!
    • Updating results from our ATR43SS-1 turbo in T3 .63, OEM bolt dump pattern. Not a big number but pretty sweet for a stock Rb20det. Car's managed to pull 220rwkws at 20psi, perfect boost control internally gated with EBC and excellent mid top end power band as they usually skydive after 5.5K. Usual bolt on supporting mods and inlet plenum and factory location exhaust manifold. Pump 98 fuel was used (Ron 93).     
    • Yeah, well, it's not as though anyone is ever going to buy one of those noisy f**kers and put it into a new installation when there are better pumps that are near silent for less money from Ti.
    • I'd suggest having the engine builder listen to it, especially if they assembled it, and minimise how much you run it in the meantime. It may have a serious issue like a big end bearing from the description and I assume the rebuild was not cheap
