haha i wish, nah it hasnt left the garage, front right quarter and rear bar are good to go, little bit of modification needed to fit the sideskirt with the wide front though. and for the front left quarter...... lets just not talk about that one yet.

UPDATE!!!!!

So Option 1 was gracious enough to send us progress photo's of the wheels and tyres turning up/fitting etc.

Hey mate, only go the viva kit if u have some awesome glassing skills, if u can modify it urself then viva kits are fine. The old saying 'you get what you pay for' does come into play once again though. In this case I'm blending the rear quarters into the body.

they seem to be very hit and miss with there products. i had an old viva kit. rear bar was the only thing that fitted no mods. skirts were miles out.

ive since had mates get bits and pices. some very good otheres not so.

    • Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.
    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
