oh when i make them i use 70x25mm box section and make it in 2 sections so you can get it in the door....then i join the two peices up by using 3 peices of 20x20 stacked on top of each other and i make those slide into each peice by about half the length of each 70x25 box section(telescopic)....then i weld it all up in place and by the time youve welded them it takes up the 7mm diffrence in the 3 peices of 20x20(20x3 =60...inside of main intrusion bar is around 67mm)make any sense?Why dont you do them yourself?You say you are a panel beater by trade,shouldnt be too hard for you......As it is your safety thats is at stake,and its usually only the rh glass that needs to be done...you could change the other side if you want to be anal and keep them both the same

ni you must be stoked!!! My car made it to Sydney a couple of weeks ago, apparently waiting for parts for compliance?? It's been that long that it doesn't really feel like i've bought a car anymore, it's just this thing that i have to keep trying to move forward. It must feel great to finally get to drive the beast!

the main hold up was myself getting the money together in time... other than that everything else went pretty smoothly.

    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
