Nope, but the width between the two bolt holes was 102cm. I was also looking at a pintara which had a wisth of 92cm, but then I measured the bluebird ones on series 1,2 & 3 and they are all 102cm so I grabbed the one that was 102cm... Not sure now that I think of it, whether it was a skyline or a pintara, but one was too short and one was just right. anyhow, I fitted it up and it was perfect. Only catch is that because it is a lot thicker than the standard one, I had to use the rubbers off the skyline where it mounts to the chassis.

Geordie, Good find - did you happen to notice which model Skyline you got the bar off?

After much fretting about how the the SR20 sump was sitting on top of the sway bar in my bluebird, I was told by a few people to get the car towed to a suspension place and have a new sway bar made for about $250 to $300.... I thought, stuff that... Went to the wreckers yesterday and walla.... Discovered after about 15 minutes of measuring and re-measuring, that a Skyline front sway bar is the perfect width, bend and thickness to suit my application... Yaay... Even better, I helped the guy take it off the car and he gave it to me for $35. Cheerin. So if anybody out there wants to upgrade the sway bar on their bluebird, then just go to your local wrecker and grab one off a skyline...
This mumma weighed quite a bit more than the standard bluebird item, and was quite a bit thicker too... Anyway, I stuck it on the car last night and it clears the sump of the SR20 by about 2cm and is the perfect shape.. Solid as a rock!!!!
Just thought you'd all like to know!!!!!
