All this weight is weighing me down, lol. A kg here, another kg there.... it all adds up.

But I should get one anyway.

What would the individual price be if not involved in the GB? (ie what sort of saving are we looking at?)

LOLz....you had already been selected for the delivery point! :P

Nice to be volunteered mate! At least delivery point is easy for me then :P

You may as well make the SA pick up point in the NT if you are going to give it to Ryan, he lives out in the sticks... :domokun:

Don't be like that baby, where did the love go?

They'll get delivered to the workshop at Dry Creek, so bit more central pick up for you.

Just want to confirm - the brace we are being is this one?

Item Number 81-M35-003X Product Name Underscore rear set

FAAARKKKKK....there's a guy like you in NSW too! :P confirmed!

No pm as yet... Are we still getting numbers?

Yes I'm still getting numbers....cut off date is the last day of the month.

I'm talking to the importer ATM trying to sort out a dump account.

OK this is well past the cutoff ... it was already history when I first saw it, but if someone does not want or you have spares I am happy to be part of this. Sorry I didn't see it sooner.

Cut off it the 31st of July!

Still sitting on the fence with this one, but are the gains looking to be as pronounced as with front end brace?

Cheers

I don't know nick as I haven't had one on my car.....bracing is bracing though and given the difference 1 bar makes I'm not really questioning the rear.

Not to discourage any one but if it's any thing like the S and R chassis Nissans, rear bracing isn't felt to add a lot by the normal guy, a full race car maybe but not a daily driver or weekend warrior. Even a rear strut brace can't be felt but we always do it, I guess for the placebo factor. It will increase stiffness of the cradle but I highly doubt you feel it whilst driving.

But for the price you might as well give it a go ?

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.

    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
