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?

    • 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.
