The guards are the issue.

I have a VeilSide GT-R front bar on mine and I was able to coax it into place with a heat gun and a little gentle persuasion. You will need a warm day to do the job because the heat needs to be uniform over the bar when you bend it.

Needless to say the paint didn't appreciate the effort and it wrinkled slightly.

If you were going to start with a bar that needed painting, it can be done.

The other option is to buy a bar that has the GT-R look but the Gts-25t fit. Here's a link to Carmate that have them: CARMATE.

Good luck!

ah ok..but it will fit like mount up..??

the fender are different but towards the body not front..or mayb coz of the headlamps..

i heard gtr front bumpers wont fit series2 coz of the headlights are different, but fits on series1 33

or was this just a load of crap....

basically gtr bar wont fit gtst. like every1 said the guard issue and yes headlight issue too. gtr headlights are diff from both gtst series and wont leave an even gap by doing this.

go on ebay, search seller mybodykits, gtr bar is like 280 and all u need is paint and it will bolt up. i bought one a while back and fit mad. only thing like all aftermarket bars, u will have to place 2 packers under the bar at the headight corners to close the gap aftermarket bars leave or buy an aftermarket reo bar too.

this bar doesnt have the in-built grill that most fakes/copy have..

and thats spoze is the problem..esp on series 1..u get a gap.

the bumper iam getting is a fake aswel..but yea..its an odd one..so yea im just try to suss it out 4 now.

the only thing thats got me puzzled is wer the bumper bolts onto the corner of the front fenders..

ive seen this doin before on sereis2..and one guy made it..

i'll try find a pic.. and show u wat i mean.. his bar aswel didnt have the in-built grill..

    • I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.
    • Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.
    • From experience, it will come back to bite you haha.
    • Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
