Thanks Jase!

SA guys, you all have my mobile number. They're being delivered to the old man's business at Dry Creek, and I'll be about the place Saturday if they're delivered in time.

NSW guys. I have braces in my hands.

Funny enough I got the braces before my rear wing! :P

Pm me with what you want to with pickups.

Victorian ones delivered to me today. Give me a call or pm me if you don't have my number and we can sort something out to collect...

Appears SA delivery is the only one not yet delivered before w/e....

Who'll be first to fit one and report back???

Pretty pissed about that Jase. What's the bet good old Aust Post deliver Monday, when we can't fit them for a week :/

Ah well. All good things come to those that wait.

Noticeable on twisty roads.....seems to grip up a little better on wot out if corners.....maybe it sits flatter. Wasn't able to have a good run this morning but there is a difference IMO.

I installed it yesterday on my V35 coupe, and I reckon the car is less twitchy exiting a corner, and far less likely to spin up an inside rear wheel if you get on the gas to early. Mine is standard other than whiteline swaybars.

Now to drill some holes to fit the front brace...

Drill holes? You just need to remove the U shape bracket the holds your cats in place that its attatched to the muffler and attatch the brace with the holes in your front subframe

I think the sedan and the coupe are a bit different, as there isn't a u shared bracket, not physically holes where there are on the stagea/sedan... My old man took a look at it and he works for Nissan. Daleo was pretty helpful too :)

Glenn, let me know how you get on with drilling the brackets, if you need any shims/spacers to assist with mounting; I'll sort you out.

Cheers, Dale.

Why would coupes not have it and sedans/wagons have it, isnt it the same car underneath? Very odd

Not the same underneath.

Example, try and fit a coupe exhaust on your car...

Although I am surprised that these braces won't wit a coupe! Perhaps the underside of the V35 coupe is closer to Z33's than the V35 sedan?

I picked the braces up last night. Mike is picking his up tomorrow and I'm helping Igor fit his Sunday.

Got mine in tonight. Doesn't look like it's going to do a lot where it is, and there is not a lot of clearance between the brace and the Whiteline sway bar.

But I haven't driven on it yet, so lets see how it goes!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
