What's the warranty return process on these, mine has paint peeling and is starting to rust... :P

Oh no! Thats terrible mate!

You send it back & I'll be sure to run it through the latest, high tech "Multi-layer non-temperature controlled rattlecan atomized liquid envelopment process"

Nothing is too much trouble for you mate.

The price is $150 delivered anywhere in Australia (except WA & FNQ; add $10) includes all mounting hardware, and a significant amount of stickytape if you're a wiseguy; eh Ryan?

NOTE; This batch will not be powdercoated as part of the price, as my mate has finished up his coating business. However, if there is a need; I can enquire into the cost of individual unit price (any colour), or a job lot in one colour ONLY (same as the OX brace makes sense).

The others were powdercoated?

I wonder if Scotty's coating coming off & your mate 'finishing up' his coating business have anything in common? :whistling:

Lol Leon, yeah, the pieces are all falling into place now!

He sold the business recently, after a very messy split with his business partner. I worked with him essentially free of charge as a favour for almost a year to help him finish all the unfinished project work that his partner had taken on and subsequently dumped when he left.

Along with stealing equipment from the workshop and funneling vast amounts of cash out of the business he indirectly cost John his marriage.

John sold his stake in the business to his ex partner; who is now making all sorts of promises to other unsuspecting businesses, and customers, and telling all sorts of lies about John as well. They will no doubt find out the hard way fairly shortly.

Anyway, the only ones to be powdercoated was the most recent bulk run of 16 that I did. Any issues with that lot would be entirely my own, as I did all the prep, and coating myself; with John observing.

All the others were sprayed, and Scotty's was one of the first out.

I can vouch for the quality of packaging. These will not get damage in transit!

Ya scumbag! :nyaanyaa:

Hello Gentlemen;

I know it's been a while.

I have 4 braces that will be ready to go out within a week or so; and another 5 the week after that.

Any takers?

As before; They are black, come with all mounting hardware and are awesome.

$150 delivered, add $10 if you live in WA, FNQ, or Tassie.

Cheers, Dale.

Hi Dale. Since I want mine in silver I'm happy to wait for the next batch & get an unpainted one.

Or I'll just paint over the black....

Either way I'll take one when you're ready.

    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
