Ive got the rear pod nismo style from jsai.. Won it thru ebay bid.. and now im thinking of putting on the nismo side skirts too.. Where are goin to order your side skirts from? Wanna do group buy? Im keen for side skirts..

Or just for laughs, find the part number for the Nismo Z-Tune front bar, call up your local Nissan dealer and see if they can order it in for you.

They will either be thinking "WTF?!" is a Nismo Z-Tune front bar..?

Or they would list you a price and you'd be "WTF?!" I am not paying that!

:laugh:

Some Nissan products are actually good in price as I have bought a few parts from them.

That's is a lot for a front bar.

But you'd expect it, if it being a genuine Nismo Z-Tune Front Bar.

+ you have to paint it the colour to match your car.

Unless you buy copies and hope it all aligns and fits correctly, cause if it doesn't then you gotta spend the cash modifying it to fit.

Or at least find a company that makes good copies of it.

But if you can justify it, then go for it.

got quoted over 800 for a front bar in fibreglass is that way to much?

Sounds ok if it's a Nismo Z-Tune...

I am only familiar with R32 GTR Front Bars and I was told the prices go anywhere from $400 - $700 (Non Nismo, I think?)

The Average price for a Nismo R32 GTR Front Bar is around the $550 mark, 2nd hand.

Either way, $800+ for a copy Nismo Z-Tune Front Bar sounds better then $2500 genuine, when you cannot justify the genuine price.

+ You will need to paint it as well.

As long as the fitting is good then go for it.

yeh i didnt include shipping from syd to melb. im going ahead with the transaction hope fitment isnt to bad. i know it will need a bit (the main reason im doing the front bar is it sits higher than standard vspec bar so i can lower it more hehe) i might put up some pics :)

cheers

hey mate, this reply might be a bit late in coming .. but in my experience (and it has been suggested by others in the past i think) if you're going fiberglass, it may be a good idea to get the parts from the guy who will be fitting them, leaving them with the hassle of fitment, and someone to go and see if fitment problems start to show after. (in my case the sideskirts on the drivers side door werent fitted very well and has lost a fair bit of its paint from the door opening/closing - not too sure if i explained that too well)

anyway all the best with the bodykit!

    • The above video is working normally. That is, that's how the right hand indicator should cancel when rotating the wheel left.
    • I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.   
    • As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.
    • Yeah car has 110 on the clock. That said the front turbo (that exploded) doesn't seem to be the original, it has a S1 part number but the car is a series 3. Yep, in the cat is where I first found the turbine wheel pieces - a couple decent sized ones, then a whole lot of fragments.  I agree, probably makes sense to upgrade parts that are being replaced. Things like rods would be 'nice' but realistically it seems unlikely they would need replacing. I was hoping that it was a case that they generally f**k up the valves but not the bore, or vice versa. Is it generally the scour damage rather than ceramic bits getting mashed into the piston tops / valves? I tried a search but couldn't find any threads with pics from the guts of a motor that's had this happen. 
    • Front seats now in, fixing a little rust then front doors sealed up again finished. had to install a fire extinguisher within arms distance of drivers seat for hill climb regulations. little bit of good old silo diff action lol IMG_9146.mov
