For the FWD ones? I'd imagine thats not the price for the eccentric ones - if it is gimme!

Neither of those names line up to the SuperPro catalogue Dale and Paul - is it Strut Bar To Chassis Mount Kit - SPF2849K or Control Arm Lower-Inner Bushing - SPF3298K?

It's the "strut bar to chassis mount kit"

It's job is to stop the forward/backward movement of the lower control arm, essentially, castor. So thats what I call it as most people know this by that name and it can adjust castor with offset bushes or an adjustable arm. No other arm up front can adjust castor.

Jay might be talking about OEM bushes? That's about what I saw when looking on ebay.

I understand what it does, but Nissan made the arm, and they refer to the arm as a compression rod, and the bush as a compression rod bush.

The bush manufacturers can call it a piano if they want, doesn't make it so.

SuperPro told me they don't make piano's for M35s. Shit out of luck. That would make sense about OEM bushes though.

Thanks Paul, they do make strut bar to chassis mount kits. That we can do :thumbsup:

Were you wanting on on the GB too Paul, or did you find another source for your kit?

From this day forth it shall be known as piano.

Sorry Dale, I call BS. Can't find this "piano" for my M35 ANYWHERE.

Lol, I was puzzled at first because the compression rod; sorry PIANO:nyaanyaa: in the pic looked brand new. Realised after that it was just a googled image...

Going OK :ph34r: , Jigs are made, just have to source some material. Work is slowing me down on that front ATM. Have you got time for my pianos this week, or next week?

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
