As per my build thread, for those that are interested, with a little bit of work I was able to invert the bracket and mount a second extinguisher to the passenger side. Great product. Thanks ag

Picked up new batch today.

Only change is the outer hole slots have been extended to suit GTT. Note: for the GTT it wont sit flat on the floor like it does in other Skylines but is still solid.

Just got mine.

The new batch fits perfect, but due to size of my extinguisher, it was in the way of sliding the chair fully forward. I slightly modified it (I bashed it with a mallet) to make it sit lower and it cleared my seat without a problem.

The bracket itself

I flattend it a bit to clear my seat rails

Nice work Ricky ^ :thumbsup:

Note to other readers this mod to the bracket is not required on any other skylines or Silvias only on R34 GT and GTT because they have a different floor pan.

If there was say 10 x R34 GT or GTT owners who wanted brackets I could get a special batch done without that bend that Ricky flattened?

I'm very happy with how this went into my S15.

Thanks Joe.

Have you guys gone over or under your seat rails with it - does it matter either way?

Hi Tinto, looks like you have heaps of room there. pretty serious seat + 5 pt harness btw :woot:

whether it goes over or under depends on how the seat seat rails are formed at the bolt holes. They tend to have a formed lip either up or down. My car has them down so bracket goes on top but whatever works for your car is okay. main thing is that the seat bolts can still get plenty of thread engadged and you can get them nice and tight. minimum 3-4 full turns of thread should be okay. other wise you may need to get longer bolts. also bolts need flanged heads or use a washer.

I know some after market seats have levers etc at the front which may be an issue.

:( i'm running Bride Cuga's and my lovely bracket won't fit anymore due to the lever at the front of the seat controller front/back movement.

Not sure if this will be an issue for any Bride rail setup

      Anybody home...? I used to moderate this part of SAU about 20 years ago... hard to beleive it's still around basically unchanged with all the old posts pinned at the top. Amazing to read all those posts again.  If anyone drops by, I'm still in Japan (Nishinomiya, between Osaka and Kobe).  Cheers 🙂

      Modding V37

      By sonicii · Posted

      Ah, yeah, the diff bushing in the rear subframe, this has been a problem since the start of the V35 in the early '00s and the only solution ever offered by Nissan is a whole new subframe.  Since they are fluid filled, as soon as they form the smallest crack, they leak brown fluid everywhere.  The aftermarket options for the v35 and V36 aren't suitable for the V37 either, Z1 has built an aftermarket option, but a few people have had issues with it. The brace should reduce movement in that bushing, so should extend its life! Did you notice any increase in noise from the driveline?  I know some have installed solid subframe collars and complain about the amount of noise it transmits through to the body, but not sure if the diff brace makes any noticeable difference?

      Modding V37

      Yea I like you had the same thought that maybe it's placebo but I pick up two different people on my way to work on different days. I have not told them of the mods and they both said to me if I had done something as it's alot more comfortable in traffic without feeling the harshness of the gear change. Quite surprised. Before I forget, another reason to get the diff brace is that apparently the stock diff bushings are apparently crap and if its worn and needs replacement, the whole subframe needs to be replaced. This brace should help reduce the wear and tear.
