Driving home from work last night, 2 cars in front slam on the brakes leaving me with no where to go.

Not as bad damage from my S1 stag, more than likely will be repaired but couldn't really look down to checkmy chassis rails.

Front bar was a genuine Takero one.

I'm fine, airbags didn't go off.

I think the chassis rails should be ok, was a low speed impact.

Prob should have had more of a distance between the car in front but the traffic was bumper to bumper, I don't think I was the only one wanting to get home to down a cold one.

Car is being assessed tomorrow.

Thanks for your sympathy guys.

have been told by crash repairer that finding a Takero front bar is going to be hard.

Has anyone come across someone who has a mould or is selling one?

If can't find one, can basically pick any front bar i like :) but unsure which to pick.

Input please.

It was a genuine takeros front bar, hard to get but seen a few on auction. Speak with sean from edoperformance and take the abflug imo, i dont know anyone that has one in oz. Stay clear of viva crap.

I ordered a S1 kit from them, but got a S2 and they couldnt get anymore in from abflug, so they paid for freight back and gave a full refund within 2 weeks. Aussie dollar is strong atm and do your self a favour and grab a carbon fibre bonnet. They also have genuine eyelids and wings that are rare as fark.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
