I installed the bar after installing new whiteline bushings and sway bars. I noticed a difference before and after the strut bar alone; steering felt slightly sharper. During the install I did observe flex between the strut towers which I also found was predominately eliminated by the strut bar. I had to move the car to let another out of the driveway, and parked with one wheel off the drive. The strut bar (which was not tightened at the ends) couldn't be moved due to the force acting upon it. Upon moving the car back to an even surface it became adjustable again (up and down).Obviously there is flex in the chassis. Controlling this flex is the strut bar's job; If this flex didn't exist then yes the bar would be useless, but from my experience it does. Others can make up their own mind but I found value in a decent quality strut bar. I wouldn't put it high on the mod list for handling though as you get better bang for your buck with sway bars. Howaitonaito is right in that you should avoid cheap bars as they are usually hollow pieces of junk which would never cope with force exerted on it. I bought the gt-spec bar from evasivemotorsports.com. One of the few places that will ship it internationally. Again I chose it after researching (would suggest you make your own choice) - it's of a very high quality in terms of welding and construction. The other carbon stuff was from a seller in the US... can't remember sorry =(

Hi mate. I have BC coilovers, the 5/16th plenum spacer and a carbon engine cover. I've managed to install my strut bar. From what I've heard, not all strut bars will fit. Ebay one's undoubtedly have very little R&D to take these needs into account. As a result I bit the bullet and purchased a GT-Spec strut bar. Fits perfectly! Very happy

Hey mate, An exhaust is my next purchase - was looking at xforce. Since you've got one hope you could answer a question; Does it drone? That's my biggest concern ^^

Installed my whiteline swaybars + bushings, hardrace camber arms & BC Coilovers. Put on new wheels. Volk Ray GTCs 20x10.5 + 18 front + rear. I'm thinking it needs to be slightly lower with a little less camber..

She looks great mate! Very clean and you chose the best colour imo. Is that a carbon fiber rear diffuser I spy? =) I've always been partial to carbon fiber.. I think you will find the MR2 wheels will sit too far in the wheel well for the rear. From memory the stock 17" offset is +30 front and +33 rear. +15 to +20 sits a-lot cleaner.

I was in the market recently for suspension components and did quite a bit of searching/calling around - i'll give you a rundown of where I found mine in case it helps. They may be cheaper than pedders. 1) Whiteline swaybars from GSL RallySport - they had a promotion of 30% off the whiteline website RRP price over Xmas. 2) Whiteline end links from Dale - he gave me a great price! 3) Hard race camber kit - front + rear - Justjap. 4) BC Coilovers - Justjap. 5) Complete set of whiteline bushings, front + back - onlineautomotive. A good $10+ off whiteline RRP for each. As to the handling improvements I can't say... I'm waiting for the swaybars to arrive until I install the lot. From what I've heard it's a marked difference.

I attempted a switch to LEDs before and the same thing happened. I bought a dome light from the US and replaced it. Simple plug and play and everythings working again. I believe the switches have a fuse which the LEDs burn out. Cheers, Martin.

FYI - Mine does the same thing shifting down into 2 when it's in D and moving 70kkm+. It's a huge jolt... but i've become used to it. Just apologise to your passenger who thought you got rear ended and smile sweetly =)

Seats Sold - they were picked up tonight. JWT Popcharger+Ztube - pending M35woah response. Transmission - on ebay - not sure how much this is worth? Open to offers! Door cards - available.

Sorry for late reply - been busy at work. Replied to all PM's - Any one who can pick up has priority on seats. I don't really want to have to post them... =)

Hi all, Just clearing out some stuff. Negotiable on all - just want it gone. Front Seats: Drivers side has broken bracket as pictured. Only forward and back motion works - bottom cushion has scratch mark on the middle leather insert - $50 Passenger side is fine - $100 Both come with the switches and motors untouched. Door Cards: $20 ea or both for $30 Rear seats: $100 Rear Cards: $20 ea or both for $30. 5 Spd AutoTransmission: Complete transmission with 47kkms on it. Came out of a scrapped v35 skyline - I bought as a spare "just in case"... but don't really need it. Currently packed on a pallet for transport. Ready to go for $800. JWT Popcharger + Ztube Used for 5kkms. I reverted back to stock air intake with CF ztube - The popcharger is slightly stained on one side - $75 for both. Everything could use a bit of a clean... just been sitting in the garage gathering dust. I've tried to describe everything as honesty as possible. Pickup at Castle Hill, NSW, 2154. Please PM if interested. Cheers, Martin.

Agreed!

Apparently the orange has to be sanded off the dials themselves... After reading that, I gave up.

The material itself seems to be pretty high quality. The finish is good, as is the adhesive. The fit was pretty spot on for each part of the dash. The only thing that concerns me were the cuts - some were rough - I had to take a stanley knife to a couple of edges. I think this is because I chose real carbon fibre as opposed to a different finish - it may be thicker than normal? I'm not sure. All I can say is the more I drive the car, the more I like the look of the kit!

If you were referring to mine, it was from mimoUSA. They do dash kits for the G35, but were able to convert that to the RHD v35 and take into account things like not having the analogue clock in the middle. They use real carbon fibre. I bought mine through ebay.

Received a present in the mail yesterday... I installed it.. I'm not sure what I think... Thoughts?

I have these pads and don't get a sound out of them... I would say that they may not have been bedded in?

Do you know what he did exactly because I would be very interested in getting this done. Sick of the lag and rev limit...

Installed a bit of carbon fibre goodness... I'm enjoying the hood dampers.

Installed my dimpled/slotted rotors, QFM HPX pads, S/S Braided HEL brake lines, brake flush + oil change. Oh and took advantage of Good Year's 4 tyres for the price of 3 sale, and bought Eagle F1 Directional 5's all round. I've noticed a marked improvement in brake feel and performance... very happy.

I ordered QFM HPX pads, front and rear, couple of weeks back from GSL Motorsport after a bit of research on the subject. I was tossing up between these and the EBC redstuff... but the HPX were less than half the price and had received good reviews all round. EBC redstuff had mixed reviews... but I understand they changed the compound a few years back so they don't eat rotors like coco pops any more.
