    Bolt in Rollbar for my 280z, the wheelarch mounted kit. I am in Orlando, FL.

    Anyone one have some quick dimensions that have worked for a simple bolt-on roll bar in an S30? Did I search and flicked through the FAQ's before starting this thread. I have a pipe bender at work , and want to put together one of those quick street Roll Bars I see bolted to the the rear wheel wells (not all the way to the floor , dont have the clearance with my seats. Cheers

    So, the consensus is that the reverse switch is NOT a viable point to fill the trans? Regardless of its position relative to the fill bolt/bung?

    Gday, I have an 5-speed on my L28 I want to change the fluid on, however the fill bolt is more stubborn than my wife. Tried heat , lots of heat, rust penetrant, and more elbow grease than I am comfortable with. I have read about blokes welding bolts on the end, or welding bars to add more leverage on the thing, but when I look at the reverse switch, I wonder if I can fill the trans at that point... The fill bolt and the reverse switch are very close in height, and the switch comes out no problem... I did search before bugging the forum, tried: transmission bolt, stuck trans bolt, stuck fill bolt, fill bolt, etc etc.

    You are a legend, thank you very much mate!

    I was going to do that as a last resort, as it involved the most caffufulllry compared to dropping the everything into the pre-mounted crossmember etc. I also have a huge aftermarket 8 gallon bluddy oil pan, will hit the ground before the cross... so I cant just sag everything onto the ground without a day long game of musical jack-stands... I still have the driver's side floor pan to finish welding up, and had this forum going while I finish the rest up...

    So I should use the strut towers as a reference point? That would require me to assume 'Point B' for the engine mounts, is shared by the cross member on the rails? That is what confused me in the first place with the FSM diagram...

    thanks mate

    So I gather that the diagram implies, the crossmember mounts and engine mounts are along the same plane/axis, spaced equally from the middle of the strut tower? So I could rely on putting the midpoint of my cross member mounts along the line straight down from the center of the strut towers to the rails?

    Yes please mate, very helpful

    Pain & Gain - 2013, an S30 right before the ninja uses his tazer on the rich bloke...

    I might take you up on that, my in-laws are in Melbourne and I and back and forth all the time with the missus. I definitely want to autocross, how do the inspections/waivers work? Because the whole front end of my chassis is a garage job, and not official SCCA stuff, not saying I am incompetent, worried it might scare them to let me on the track with my creation...
