Due to the unsuccessful result, from the previous attempt (organized by another SAU member), I have decided to source my own supplier.

Meridian Motorsport has two brands that fit our requirements one is SPARCO the other is ERG. The Sparco belts are just under $500ea, if we were to buy 10+. The ERG harness is $375ea for a group buy of 10+.

Now, I have personally seen both items side by side and apart from the logo there is NO difference. The belt buckles and length adjusters are identical and appear to be supplied by the same manufacturer. The only difference is that the Sparco release buckle is anodized and the ERG buckle is powder-coated/painted. Straps are of the same thickness (3") and material.

Tobby (sales rep.) has stated that he sells at least twice as many of the ERG harnesses and has not yet had a bad response.

These come in 3 colours; Black, Red, and Blue.

THEY ARE FIA APPROVED

Unfortunately I am unable to locate ERC's web site and Meridian seem to have no pictures of either harness on their web site. But I have scanned a couple of pictures from the Sparco catalogue.

Just found out that these belts retail for about $440ea so $65 bux is a pretty good saving.

Please post your interest below and include colour

Due to the lack of interest i am stopping this GB :rofl:.

But Maridian Motorsport have offered to sell these harnesses for $399 (usually $440). So if you want one just call Tobby, at Meridian(Tele: 9553 4200), and mention you are from SAU. If you are not sure how to describe the harness just say "the one Alan was organising for the SAU group buy".

All the best

Alan

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
