Hi lads, ok. I'll have to get in touch with my steel supplier and get a price on material. Still got the jig.

Tried fitting it two ways, over and under the brace. Over is better, sits a bit low under. Great front end stiffening. Use a reamer to increase holes from 10mm to 12mm. Plenty of t

Apologies guys, I can ship to NZ, no problems at all. I'm not fabbing right now, but that is set to change very shortly. Cheers, Dale

Light a fire. Put brace in fire. wrapping burns off. Brace turns black. Win.

Seriously - this has to be one of the great wins for Stagea M35 owners. Like when we did sway bars.

Cheers Dale. :)

Hope the wait was worth it, especially considering I'm going to have to spend a week unwrapping the dog dick pink bar before I can fit it!

Lol Ryan, yours will be very, er;

Safe.

No chance of a scratch there.

I think you'll all be suitably pleased.

True Alex, that seems like so long ago...

My group buys have gotten simpler since then.

Awesome; the new Chassis brace wasteland thread! :rolleyes:

Glad to hear they're rolling in; I left the sheet with all the Tracking numbers at work, and I'm on my weekend ATM so you'll all have them before I can get the numbers to you. :domokun:

Don't be shy with the bolts either; tight is right!

And go back in a week or so & re-tension them please; they do seem to settle in a bit, even with Nylocs.

Cheers, Dale.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
