Happy Birthday!!!....I bet you wont be so eager to shout it out when your over 45!

Measure it....

Ya baby! Whittle away!

Subscribed...hope it turns out as well as this pic! Fantastic.

Funny, I came across this site a few days ago while searching for S13 suspension set-up specs for the track. All I could think was...cool:bling:..why wouldnt it be traingulated to something? And then bart628 comes up with his pic. Im confused, jmortenson says...Since the weight is moved when the suspension is moved it doesn't become part of the sprung weight and remains unsprung. Are you trying to say the opposite? ..become part of the unsprung weight and remains sprung. As I see it the unsprung weigh is reduced....your not moving the entire spring, strut housing, strut...etc. Just compressing the spring and moving the piston off a rod and cam. ...yes?

I do not have confirmation on the j bolts but hope to hear soon. They are on SUNCO order at NISSAN. Lets see what turns up??

All the pieces are laser cut now. Now there will be a week delay until my fabricator finishes moving his shop down the street. Thanx for your patience and support.

Great stuff...I will take you up on that. Thanx!!

LOL...I guess you need to try and get one. Go to a local metal mart (or such)......they have all sorts of cut offs.

LOL...no feathers ruffled....all is cool. Just laying down a few details......your input is appreciated.!

What a knob!

WOW...you painted the inside of your tank with floor paint! Lesson learned. Drop the tank, remove all that paint and seal it properly. You may have to take it to a gas tank repair shop and have it boiled out. But whatever you do...dont coat over the current mess with Por15. You will probably have adhesion problems and your problems will continue. Just a thought.......Paint stripper may work.....test it on a small area to see what happens. If it reacts pour it in and slosh it around, rinse well and then seal it a with proper film.

Now I just need the other strap.......hold on to it for me Nigel!

You are refering to galvanic corrosion and I dont belive it to be an issue here. Im a chemist by training but dont apply much of that any more....that was once upon ago....... Firstly our cars , gas tanks and so forth are painted so there is "insulation". As importantly you require an electrolyte to initiate and maintain this reaction...ie water. The Ions need something to travel through and must be in constant contact for severe corrosion to occure. I know my car isnt wet all the time!.... There are other factors, one of which is the level of current that is produced. In this case there is much less SS than Steel so the current towards the SS would be small, resulting inlittle ion transfer. ...see this link for a detailed explanation... http://www.ssina.com/corrosion/galvanic.html This would explain why people use SS nuts and bolts on their auto projects without problems...... Bottom line, Im not concerned but you need to make your own decison. On that note....10 sets are on order. As soon as they are made sets will be allocated on a first pay basis. Cheers!

Agreed! But if your dash is cracked smacked and pooched..and you dont care .what's it matter. There have been a few real cool dash hybridz...right down to a 350Z dash.

Do you really need a S30? Do you want them? If so.....get them. OMFL

For now it will be up to the user. But ...I can be convinced to come up with something as long as it covers my cost. Not a big problem. In my case I used an Bike interube.

I can make them for the 280 guys but need a pairof used one's for a template. Do you have a set Nigel?

OK...the price for SS straps will be.....$75.00US per set (2). And a set of steel straps will be $65.00 They will be improved upon over the first set made. Everything will be laser cut and tig welded, and the L-brakets are designed closer yet to the originals. As soon as the improved version is completed I will have pictures posted. At this point NISSAN has not confirmed J-bolt availability. but they have priced it at $16.00 each. I will have 10 SS sets made up over the next couple of weeks and make them available for purchase soon after. Shipping will be extra and actual cost + materials. No handling. What do you think?

Looks great! I have never been a fan of the round tail lights but I have to admit....I LIKE YOURS! What are they off?
