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

      Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure

      Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By oHBoy. · Posted

      Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
