Hi Guys

Strut Braces Group Buy 3

I have a friend who imports strut braces and I can get some good deals from him if I buy in bulk. This is the going rate

buy 1 for $70 - I have 3 x r33 front and 1 x r32 front left over from last group buy.

buy 5 for $65 each

buy 10 for $65 each

buy 15 ir more for $60 each

Postage is $13 for 1 and $20 for 2.

Here is the list of strut braces I can get

skyline

R33 front strut brace

R32 (incl GTR) front and rear strut brace

Silvia

s13 front and rear strut brace

Supra

Fits JZ80 and 70 series front strut brace

Soarar

Fits on soarer twin turbo and non turbo front strut brace

If you guys are interested reply to this thread and tell me exactly what you want. It just makes administration work a little easy when it comes to organising everything. Sorting through PM/EMAILs/thread replies and SMSs is a nightmare

Over the next few days/week I will see how many people are interested and let you all know what the cost will be. If everthing goes good I will then need the money from the buyers and I will get the parts and send them out to you guys. If everyone pays up quickly the buyers should get their strut brace within 7 days.

END DATE: 15/01/05 or earlier depending on the amount of buyers.

Hey Raf

just as a heads up on the one i bought for 2JZGE soarer - doesnt quite fit as the inlet plenum is just a tad too high

tried using some washers under the bracket but the bolts from the suspension wasnt long enough to accomodate it.

will have to modify the brackets to allow for this :)

cheers

sorry to hear about that. My supplier told me it will fit fine. It it a stand plenum? But I guess he did not check it close enough I will tell him that. But I might have a solution!!!

With the s13 sr20 strut braces they fit fine with the the sr20 motors but with the ca18 it hits the plenum slighty. So what we do here is the bend the bracket just before the bolt holes slighty. Put the braket in a vice and give it a slight bend so the bar sits a little higher. If this is not clear let me know and I will send you some pictures. Otherwise I hope it works - let me know.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
