Here is the unit im talking about, this pic shows a carbon fibre look on the front but the one i saw in super cheap is plain black.

Has anybody used one of these?

If you have, i have a few questions.

1) does the cup holder have something underneath it to stop the can falling through?

2) is there enough room for it to be out and have drinks in it and not crunch your knuckles against it in 1st, 3rd and 5th in an R33?

3) is it easy to fit?

Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a link to the product page http://www.aerpro.com.au/list.php?pcode=FP...o=&cat_sno=

I used the aerpro universal pocket without the cup holders and they fit in my R34 perfectly. The one i used had 3 different surrounds for it and i had to chop the edges a little on the smallest one to fit in but apart from that was fine. might cut it real close to the shifter with the cup holders though.

hey mate,

bought one of these for my r33 ages ago, cost me $49 only to find out that the holes dont line up properly :rolleyes:

it would require redrilling holes into the metal bracket which i couldnt be bothered with at the time ay...

1) yer as you pull it out a small frame folds down to hold the drink.

2) when you have drinks in it i think it will just be in the way - i had a short shifter n with a maccas drink it would just hit.

3) mine just sat in there when i had it - you can make it fit so that the thin frame that pops on the front of the din unit sits over the plastic frame surrounding all the aircon unit and cd deck etc. however then its not bolted down. mine jammed in though so it doesnt really move.

also the small draw above the drink holder is not much good lol u cant get your fingers in there to get coins etc out and cd's just dont fit haha

cheers Jon

      R34 GT-T cycling ABS pump

      The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.

      Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.

      Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.

      There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.

      Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
