^^^ well that is a NISMO front bar .... but the lip doesn't jut out anywhere near as much as the normal NISMO lip does.

Correct - the nismo front bar is one single piece - replaces the OEM front bar completely.

I don't know if it sits lower than OEM + nismo lip.

I've got both so can take a measurement if you want?

Like most nismo stuff, the differnces are subtle, but side by side they are two very different shapes.

The nismo bar is much squarer - it almost drops vertically towards the ground on all sides. It is certainly one piece. The line that looks like the point that the lower lip section is joining the front bar is a moulding line only.

It is the NISMO front bar. Nismo actually don't make the lip only. I bought my car with the NISMO body kit, that's with the side skirting and wing as well. But that doesn't means they are OEM. BTW the NISMO kit are in fiberglass too. They will drop the car 2" comparing to the OEM bar.

Haha funny this topic should come back up. I ended up biting the bullet and bringing in 4 urethane Nismo copy front bars in late 2013 (an absolute nightmare of an experience, and significantly more costly than I was anticipating).

I have one on my car, have sold 2, and have one currently for sale. And yes, as you mention FlyingEL, the genuine Nismo front bars are fibreglass and crack/shatter if you bend/hit them too hard. Mine is urethane, which can literally flex 180 degrees back on itself and just pops back into shape.

So, I still have one sitting here for sale :whistling:

    • Gucci bags tend to hold their value well, so someone’s definitely going to get a nice find here.
    • @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑
    • I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed    
    • All I can say is, that's still bloody awesome! No plans on caging it I'm guessing?
    • It seems you'd like your Skyline to go to a great home, that can keep it as a beautiful museum piece.  I feel I can provide the perfect place for it, however, I'm not sure I can justify so much money for a Skyline that has only been crashed 3 times. Due to this and market prices, would you be against me buying it for $100.00, with $60 to be paid upfront, and the remaining $40 to be paid annually in equal payments?
