Hype 6 Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) So the factory Body Repair Manual covers the front end pretty well. But doesn't give much info on the rear end. What I am mainly after is a measurement side to side for the bumper bar side mounting holes. Ideally using the centre number plate bracket hole as a reference and from a non crashed Silvia, if such a thing exists anymore. I have included the front end stuff if anyone is looking for that.

Loob76 1 Posted June 24, 2020 im planning to take the rear bar off mine this weekend. Ill see if i can take some measurements for you while its off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hype 6 Posted June 25, 2020 That would be killer if you could mate. I have lined up a car to measure when I am back home from work as well. It would be good to cross reference and make a proper diagram 🤔 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Loob76 1 Posted June 27, 2020 (edited) All good! This is what ive got. Its 790mm from the outside of the centre bolt to outside of the rear bar holes if that makes sense. Sorry for the the un readable hand writing haha I also could not get all the measurements as i forgot i still had the rio on the car and didnt bring home the tools needed to take it off (been forever since ive taken the bar off) Hope it helps you out!

Hype 6 Posted July 9, 2020 My quarter panels looked pretty decent, so I wasn't expecting it to be this bad haha: LH: 780 780 775 755 RH: 775 775 770 750 Now to build some plates and brackets to pull it out properly instead of the eyebolts and ratchet straps I have been previously using haha.

Hype 6 Posted July 22, 2020 So I finally had the time to try and pull this damage out yesterday. Not the most efficient method, but the only way I can do it with limited tools and equipment. I am not sure if the lowest hole is meant to be 790 though? I got the rest close, and if it was at 790 I don't think the bumper would fit properly? Measurements ended up at: LH: 787 787 784 764 RH: 787 787 787 765 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if your rear bar fits ok and looks good id count that as a win Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
