After its dried out Penetrol is you friend to treat rust and seal up those seams

Yep ! Cluster out first. Dismantle. Check for oil grease. If oil and grease = clean. Then check seal at the drive coming from the gearbox. Seal broken = change seal. Doing it the other way around it will again push grease/oil back into the cluster and then your gonna have to do the cluster clean all over again !

Wait ! What ? My knees are NOT supposed to look like porridge ? ? Ummmm ! I'd best get to the docs ! Maybe there a cream or antibiotics or something! !

And at over $2 per litre I'm starting to consider setting up a corn mash still and converting over to alcohol and running mine on it ! Up side of that is it all doesn't have to go into the car ! Win win !

Yes I as well would like to find out where I could get some of the seat material with the red or blue small squares in it

How much is it to re-uploster? Well that's a "how longs a piece of string?" question ! And I answer thusly: "twice half its length! " . . . . . . Seriously you'll have to chase multiple quotes for that one from different uphlostrerereres ! Ask around, in your area and on the forums, chase reviews and most of all see the finished product in person cause photoshop is a wonderful thing !

Yep that's a superb price and ther is no way you will over capitalise on you investment. As to the bracket, again just use the passenger side seat bracket ( obviously reversed ) as a sample to reshape it and in this case, TIG it back together.

Considering the price of GTR stuff now the answer is yes. That's a straight forward TIG or even MIG job. I'd put extra tubing inside, for extra strength and weld it up. Then use the spare seat as an example to get the bolster rails in the correct position and the re-apolster. If you don't mind me asking what did you pay for the pair as they are?

Oh very very true ! I'm honestly thinking about taking my entire R33 series 3 red stitch GTR interiour out of my car, selling it and buying a small house ! I spotted as pair of R400 GTR seats on GumBay on the interweb and they were asking around the 12K mark !

Oh ! Oh ! And the Subaru SVX . . . . . . . soooo 90s !

Of the 90s ! !

Every one has seemed to of have missed . . . . . . . The Mazda Cosmo . . . . . . what a MACHINE ! !

Yup but for me its the HR ! Cut my teeth on the old holden 6s in the day ! And here's me thinking in the day it was also the 300ZX and the Mitsubishi GT3000 ! All, as well had good lines, but always seemed to need finishing off, style wise.

Did I tell you I really love skylines ? ! ‽

Ha ! Did mine as well. Used a Z hose I got at Supercheap and cut out what I needed. Then while everything was off changed out the water heater control block and the heater supply hoses to silicon on both sides. While attaching said hoses to the plastic hose fitting that goes through the firewall to the heater core they crumbled due to age. Got new heater core supply pipes, de gassed the air con took out the glove box pulled out air-conditioning fan unit and took out the heater core went to change out the busted pipes and went nope ! Went and got a brand new heater core, attached the heater core pipes, put the air con fan unit back in, re attached the new silicon heater hose, put the air conditioner fan unit back in got it regased annnnnnnnnd Bob's your uncle ! 5 minute job really ! AND I AINT DOIN THAT SH*T AGAIN ! !
