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.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
