Hey All,

I’ve noticed my seat belt has frayed near where it joins to the seats.

So I need to get them replaced, any 1 have any places they recommend?

ive been told you need to take it to a workshop registered or licensed to fit seat belts.

can you just get seat belts from any model of car, or do they have to be gtr seatbelts? just wondering what my options are.

im not keen on racing harness though as im not that much of a racer.

If its just frayed a bit on the edges, just get a lighter on to it and burn the freying away! Other than that if the belts are the same in another model Line then no doubt you could use them but i'm sure you'd be able to find some 32 GTR ones at a wrecker here somewhere!

It is illegal for wreckers to sell seat belts, so I doubt they will.

Sorry I can't help with where to get them though.

I had to do this a while ago for the pulsar, and you will not get a wrecker in Adelaide that will sell you 2nd hand seat belts.

Options are buy it from nissan, or go to Wiltshires (on south Rd - I think correct spelling) to get them to replace or repair your belts. There are a few other places around town, 1 north enfield way, that will do the same however I do not know there names.

Yeh no s#@t??? I wouldn't have thought it would be a issue provided they are still in working order, BANG you learn something new everyday!

They cant due to legallity issues, if you have a car crash and the seatbelt breaks they are liable.

I spent $287 for 2 new front seat belts for my 32 4dr.

They were custom made and took 2 weeks to get back to me.

ALTHOUGH they dont fit.

The B Pillar Adjustment bracket plastic thingy will not fit into the mounting bracket on the new seat belts. Took them back and they swore that they were custom made for my car.

BAH BOOHHHHHH.

Go to Wilshires and get them made properly. Dont waste your time with other places.

PS. I still havent got seat belts that fit my car.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!

      I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
