DSC04379.jpg

made from a piece of aluminium I found in the scrap bin at a truck place.. :)

took 20 mins to make and its like 6mm thick too, so not going anywhere but meant I needed longer bolts...

Mine is the same, though 3.5mm from bunnings.

I'm actually surprised they OK'ed that without washers under the bolt head.

I'm just tossing up whether I should buy the 48's Traction have on special or just run the KU36's again, there might be another day left in them, I hope...

Mine are the same, Stainless M6 cap screws with nylock nuts, no washers on 3mm alloy strap. The scrutineers were wrapped with the install, compared to some of the other ones they had seen last Saturday.

Oh Martin, I knew someone would complain..where would you like to see washers mate, I'll put some there for you ok..I'd love to lend you entry fee too mate but I had to beg and plead with the finance dept myself.. I find the trick is to ask just before they're about to climax as they will enthusiasticaly say yes to anything ;)..Bar that Just sell a kidney or something you know it's worth it.

if my tax arrives might even enter!

I have a feeling you'll be receiving it soon :P

Care to post a pic of what your awesome one looks like? :D

Just filled out my Cams licence just then and was about to send, but then just realised I don't have a passport photo. Cot dayum...

Just used a facebook picture for the photo. Cams processed and should get it next week :D

I only fitted them on the drivers side for now, mainly because I don't sit in the passenger seat often. I tried out the bitch seat today and it definitely needs spacing up 10 or so mm at the front.

When I did mine the cams regs asked for body washers both sides and 2 x M6 bolts.

that said just glanced at the current regs and they have removed mounting info other that it must withstand 25G..no idea how scrutineers can test that!

So I withdraw my comment looks like it would pass current regs

There are no washer for the seat.....

1. You don't want the fire ext under the brake pedal!

Man there's no way that extinguisher is getting past my legs, even if it did its not going to fit under the pedal..

It can easily be mo ed to the passenger side anyway should officials complain :)

If it's flying around the cabinet at PI it could end up anywhere.

End of the day, it's common sense. No teck screws, bolts that are made from metal and not plastic (zipties) and attached in two locations so it doesn't swivel all over the place.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
