Well, I was able to load up some new pics on my cardomain page, and since I can't access photbucket at work I will link them this way ...
Here are the pics of the bar courtesy of Dwayne ... Considering my front fender is a bit out of alignment (from the little accident a while ago), this bar has pretty much fit straight on with little fuss... Aza and I attacked each others cars a few weeks ago to fit them ... So big thanks to Aza for his help too...
Hopefully to be painted in the next week or so ... With a few little additions here and there... I think I have set the coilovers to have 11-12cm of ground clearance from the lowest point of the bar... Which are those little pod parts at the front...

Actually, when it is on flat ground, the back is higher then the front ...
I think we have close to 20cm clearance from the lowest part of the rear.. It is also that the tyres on the rear are 235's when the front are 215's... So the guard does not get full up with tyre...
As the fronts are only new, when they wear out, they will get 225's while the rear will remain with 235's ..

It is the VersionR (or Facelift front bar) that is blended with a T's Factory lip... There is the group buy threas started by Dstocks here ... I am pretty sure he still has some left, so get in now if you want one... Cheap price, and it really is a great build ... It literally just lines straight up ...

Nah looks wicked man, nice work
Blahahaha ... But missing the chopped bar and intercooler... I remember the photo you are talking about though... It had stock Nissan rims on it ... Maybe that is why I got the secret question wrong... Blahahahahah ...

havnt recieved them yet, they wont go in till i wear out my front tyres. got 235/45/18 on the fronts and they just make it under the fender. thats with fender lipping and pulling and some bashing to the wheel wells.
215/35/18 will go on next and then low
good to see your cf bonnet didnt get too damaged from the accident aswell
Yeah.. It held up pretty well ... Only damage was due to her spare tyre sitting on it ...
You sure you want 215's ... I have them on mine, and with the coilovers it is a real bumpy ride... Which is why I want the 225 front and 235 rear ... Give a bit more of a cushion ... I have heard the BC's are pretty rough too ...
You getting em from Just Jap
If so, let me know, and I can pick em up for you ... Unless you are going there yourself .. But either way, would still like to check em out...

Dropping her off at the panel shop on this coming Saturday ..
Hopefully it will be finished by Australia Day, but knowing my luck it wont... Ohhh well ... What can you do ..
I would say more then likely it will be ready by the next weekend ... Lets see how it goes.. Going to be doing a couple of things while it is in there ...

no not from just jap, i thought they only sold the streets (red/black sets)
i can always change spring rates if its too ruff. but if it cant be allot more teeth jarring then mine now. honestly i can live with it
with tyres i'll still go 215/35 or 215/45... reason for this is for the stretch over the wheel so i can get better wheel fitment.
