I am looking into getting a front mount I/C for my r33 m spec and I want to know do I have to cut any of my front bar to make one fit,

Also suggestions on what type to get and if front the front bar needs to be cut for the type.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

i had mine just trimmed at the back side to give enough clearance for the fmic. from a far that'll make my car look 100% stock. air flow wise won't be a majro issue for a low boost application.

I like the look of the front bar as it is and yeah I am wanting to keep it looking as stock as posiable,

not going to be running huge boost so I dont need to get heeps of air flow,

so what is going to be the better brand to go with?

and around what size?

as was said the back side of the bar needs to be trimmed a little for the thing to fit, but the front should be fine. it should show you what needs to be done in the instruction booklet for and r33 i/c kit such as taking off the stock cooler and trimming what needs to be trimmed and so on and so forth. i have a greedy v-spl and that kit is only for midly modded cars so it (or a similar kit) would be ideal for you i suppose. dimensions are 600x276x76

Also, with a gtr style front bar such as the ones from UAS, it wouldnt need to be trimmed on the backside for the above cooler to fit would it?? i thought the std gtr coolers were about the same size so it should be ok right?

    • Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now. 
    • Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.
    • I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.  
    • I'm shocked, you've owned a Skyline since 2006 and never joined SAU before now! 😮   Welcome, it's much quieter these days than it was in 2006, but lots of very knowledgeable ones lurk around here. I actually think in outage we've forgotten more about Skylines than anyone knows about them today... 😛
    • So it could give us some info. Such as we find out what number they started at, and we know how many of those blocks came before it.
