I had a nightmare I came off a cliff at the Great Ocean Rd in the Stagea. The funny or strange thing is, as I'm airborne and quickly falling to the rocks below I was thinking to myself "geez I hope this car is well built" - kind of hoping the car will save me when I hit the ground ....

It did of coarse :)

That is without a doubt the worst nightmare, besides being stolen and never seen again - but geez how did your grill survive the impact?

LOL

NFI - but it was about the only visual mod on the whole car (aside from the rims) It was originally a 25X Four

That damage WAS sustained trying to punch a rear diff out of a WRX laterally though. Stood up damn well considering.

Hey Dale she looks alot straighter than that now hope to have her back on the road soon but working away puts a big dent in getting things done .

Look forward to seeing it again man.

The bit about the grille is interesting. When Rob literally broke his in half, the N/a grille, that I coveted, popped out and was near perfect. Only needed one zip tie.

Never told Rob I had a pic of his car and used to stick pins in it all over. Except for the grille.

Is that true or did I dream it???????

Going to bed now with some anti-depressants.

      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.
