dreco Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Thought I share of a picture of their new strut brace. It fits the LS with the JCI kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NylonAdmiral Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 That looks really nice! I was actually looking at fabricating something similar but that could be a viable alternative instead. Just need to work out whether or not it will clear two top mount turbos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooger82 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 That is a very menacing engine bay. Like how the blue seems to match nicely with the blue on the 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this Datsun is more track car than road car now, but why not make it look nice too. Dreco, where the heck are all your wires? That looks clean! Haha.. It would look worse if I did the wiring haha. I had sourced that part of the install sourced out. They did a great job routing the wire harness. that looks great ! LS6 Thanks!

boosted300 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Looks great! So the piece on the firewall just bolts onto existing hood latch catch and becomes the hood catch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarJway Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Thanks for sharing! Just ordered mine! Below is the link for the Tri-Bar itself. https://technotoytuning.com/nissan/240z/z-front-tri-bar-add Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevlars30z Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 GAAHHH! Love this brace. To bad the VQ required me to cut off the original hood latch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypertek Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 on a facebook reply, T3 said they had it mate to a cusco bar. I may consider ordering it if it can fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
str8pipez Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Ordered one as well for my LS swap, should be here tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypertek Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 T3 says it will bolt to my cusco bar, but didn't specify what would be needed to do so. My concern was that the bars might not be long enough to reach the cusco bar. Dreco do you think it would work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryant67 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 According to T3, they have what is needed to make the triangulation work with the Cusco bar. I have ordered the kit based on them stating as much to me - I should be picking it up from the post office tomorrow. Unfortunately my engine bay is empty right now, but I can certainly post back with measurements if it helps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryant67 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) Didn't get to my car today, but here are a couple of pics anyway. The triangulation rod's are both 19" long, center to center, and are spaced apart about 6.75" at the hood latch. So that should give you an idea as to fitment. Unfortunately it seems I didn't get the correct hardware for the cusco bar from T3 though, so I'll need to shoot them an email about that. The rod ends are too short to reach all the way through the Cusco bar. Sure it was just an error, not a big deal. Quality seems great though, and the latch part matches the Cusco blue almost perfectly - very nice!! Edited June 1, 2015 by ryant67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreco do you think it would work? sorry i didnt check this thread. I think the bars are a bit short. I'll find some time to measure the bars.

ryant67 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Can confirm, the bars are about 2" too short to reach the Cusco ends. I emailed T3 and they are sending me out longer ones - will report back once I get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypertek Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 cool thanks for the replies! Awaiting your success before I order. =) I got their tension rods and tie rod ends on my Z, very nice stuff for sure. I like that they listen to customers and consider them for parts.

Hypertek Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Ryant67 Get the parts yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryant67 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 The parts should be in this week, but I might not have a car to check them on - it's in at the shop to get the engine bay painted. Will be sure to report back once I get a chance to check for fit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
