Eccentric bushes only is my understanding Serge, but I also hear that heaps of people cut and shorten upper arms to get camber (illegal).

No idea about the undertray, or if it was even there when I ran the car. MPC took care of the car as you know, maybe they have it because I know they needed to tidy up under the car quite a bit after we used it in 2008.

IMO, you're better off making an aluminium one that pushes snugly behind the lower lip, as the factory plastic one very quickly grinds the leading edge off on the road, and turns itself into a huge air scoop, and makes a horrendous flapping noise and bangs the whole car quite violently! First time it happened to us we stopped mid stage because we'd thought a wheel was loose in the wheel well!

The factory ones are far too expensive too, but I can assure you, I didn't steal it and take it home with me as carry on luggage :D

See what I mean? Rally Burnie, 2006;

My understanding is only bushes too, but i've seen plenty of GT-R's running noltec syle upper arms. Also look at the N1 part numebrs in Nissan fast, these is plenty of standard parts on a N1 that arn't widely known :D

Yeah I have. Ralf and the guys there are good blokes and know a bit BUT they insist on using that damn laser alignment machine and sometimes you can physically see that what the machine is saying isn't what the alignement is in reality.

So they can do most of the mechanical set-up side but you're still going to want to get it string line aligned somewhere afterwards.

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
