the older i get the more sense i see in P plate restrictions because i look back at how i, and a lot of people i knew, drove and can see that despite us thinking we weren't that reckless at the time, we actually were. until i got booked on the second year of having my licence, i pretty much drove everywhere at 20kmh over the limit and thought nothing of it.

^ i agree, but i just think that some of the laws are a bit badly thought through

such as being able to do certain things on ur Ls but not on your Ps

i actually dont really disagree with not being able to drive after midnight, thats fine

but i think that if you were allowed to on your L plates with supervision, you should be allowed on your red Ps if you were to have an adult with you. even if you just had to swap back to using L plates or something?

and same with the turbo skyline law being able to drive one on your L's but not your Ps

im not really against any of the laws though, dont really bother me too much.

funny ass ! 3.6L commodore is allowed when 3.5L 350GT N/A is BANNED !!!! hoho

pretty simple really commonwhore crap, 350gt good and the fact no matter what car a P plater is in there will be a minority that see it as their civil duty to wrap it around an object!!!

      Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.

      Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.

      There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.

      Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
