Hey people.....

I just bought a rear strut brace and need help fitting it.

I have a r33 gtst s2......

Have tried searching for DIYs etc but cant find anything decent.....

Anyone in WA interested in helping me??

Let me know....thanks in advance....

Cheers

Hey mate, there's 2 threaded bolts with a plasitc cover thing over them, behind the battery cover just above the strut towers in the boot.

Shouldn't be too hard to fit up.

This thread helped me figure it out.

feel like an idiot....because i saw the two bolts protruding from the side of the pillars when I took off the boot lining etc....the strut brace I bought was a front one :( (how stupid of me)...the guy I bought it from thought it was a rear one...and since I didnt open the boot up BEFORE buying it...I thought it would fit.....so was just confused with how the bolts were SOOO wide apart on the strut but SOOOO narrow on the car....

So I was on the right track...and it would be shit simple to fit....bloody strut confused me...

Thanks for your reply anyway

Should all be sorted by tmrw anyway...

OH N I STILL WANT A REAR STRUT if anyone has one for sale ;)

Cheers

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
