ADR sleeves arrived and they are finishing off the kits as we speak. So lets pray that they get sent out to me early next week!

We're nearly there boys, just hold out a bit longer on me lol.

I sent off an email asking if we have a tracking number yet so we will see, they should have been sent but since I havn't received an email I have my doubts...

As to the "mounting blocks", the lines look like they do in the picture on the previous page. That's pretty much how all the aftermarket brake lines I looked into seem to come (Goodridge, HPI etc)

However I don't understand and maybe you can explain it to me as to what you are reffering to by needing mounting blocks. Here's a picture that shows the rear brake lines on a GTST and to me it seems like fairly straight forward swap?

The front lines are pretty much the same thing however they also attach half way along since they are a lot longer and hence what the little sliding mount on the lines is for so you can put it into position where you want.

Hope this clears some things up? Like I said they are ment to be a piece of piss to install and don't require anything additional to be purchased.

Hi PHIL,

Mounting BLOCK`S ,

I did ask you about these as i have STAGEA S2,& are line`s are 830mm long & have 3 block`s in are set up,

These Photo`s will show you what a few are on about ,post-36964-1277350628_thumb.jpgpost-36964-1277351110_thumb.jpg,

Cheer`s Chuckie.

So that is on the front of a Stagea? I could have sworn my front was mounted differently. Damnit i'm going to have to take the front wheel off and have a better look at it. As the rear, from the picture I posted above, looks like a piece of piss to swap.

Hi PHIL,

Yes front Series2 ,

Great, thanks for that Phil. I didn't really understand what the mounting blocks were because I had a look at my stock brake lines and they look pretty much exactly the same as the braided ones (obviously rubber though, not braided lol). I just wanted to make sure that you needed mounting blocks for braided lines to stop them rubbing against other soft lines or something like that, but now I'm fairly sure that it is a fairly straightforward swap.

i thought these would be a peace of piss to install as well, the fronts are easy as, the rears are a pain in the ass for me to try undo the line from the bracket, if i knew this before attempting to install i'd go get a quote for somewhere else to install. i ended up nearly stripping the nut on the rears. not trying to put anyone off doing it themselves, but i let those bastards soak in wd40 for ages applying a bit more every 2nd day and still no luck, maybe its just my brake lines and no one will have any problems. just some input. thats for a 33gtst to.

These incompetent c*nts are really testing my f**king nerves now. Once again no replies to e-mails and i'm going to have to make another international phonecall if I don't hear from them by tomorrow. This time im letting loose, I just don't give a shit any more.

Righteo got a reply boys. They have been completed and are boxed up, just awaiting FedEX to pick them up. If they are not sent out this week we have been offered a £500 refund so it is safe to say they will get sent in the next couple of days.

This nightmare is almost over! If the kits are wrong/missing parts/for a motorbike/don't fit/you get a Honda Accord kit etc than I am off to Mexico!

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
