Hi all,

I just bought an APEXi strut brace off a guy in Qld.

On arrival here I noticed two small scratches where something has been rubbing against it, which werent evident in the photo - but bottom line is I dont wont to put it on my car anymore.

The guy in Qld has agreed to take it back, as he has others who were interested in buying it, BUT it will cost me once more in postage, which was $15.

It is annodised red, with carbon inlay and a silver APEXi sticker in the middle.

If anybody here would like to buy it, I will sell it for $155 (originally cost me $170 plus post), as I will get $170 back for it, just it will cost me another $15.

Pictures are on this thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=29412

Cheers

Steve

Steve,

I might be interestd in the brace,price is ok,my only problem is that it will fit over the top of my new (un-fitted) motor.I've built up (Mick at Tilbrooks) a good healthy 3ltr but it fits in at approx 30.0 to 40.0 mm higher(dont yet know if i will even get my 'glass bonnet closed)Is the carbon just rapped around the anodised alloy tubing or is it inserted into carbon tubing like we do on the carbon olympic bikes?By the way will back you in any way possible with your regency(project)- i havent been done yet(only a matter of time once back on the road!!) but if i can help in any other way please feel free to ask...

Regards,

SKYLINE....

skyline, thanks for the support on the regency thing.

The brace sits with a fair bit of clearance, it sits just under the bonnet (only just). The carbon is inlaid, its flush with the alloy. I think the 3L is 30mm higher than the 2.5 from memory. Hard to say I suppose until the engine is in. I had heaps of clearance, but I am running a trust plenum.

legend, no probs I will pm you my phone number, monday or tuesday is good, whatever is good for you.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
