ADR sleeves arrived and they are finishing off the kits as we speak. So lets pray that they get sent out to me early next week!

We're nearly there boys, just hold out a bit longer on me lol.

I sent off an email asking if we have a tracking number yet so we will see, they should have been sent but since I havn't received an email I have my doubts...

As to the "mounting blocks", the lines look like they do in the picture on the previous page. That's pretty much how all the aftermarket brake lines I looked into seem to come (Goodridge, HPI etc)

However I don't understand and maybe you can explain it to me as to what you are reffering to by needing mounting blocks. Here's a picture that shows the rear brake lines on a GTST and to me it seems like fairly straight forward swap?

The front lines are pretty much the same thing however they also attach half way along since they are a lot longer and hence what the little sliding mount on the lines is for so you can put it into position where you want.

Hope this clears some things up? Like I said they are ment to be a piece of piss to install and don't require anything additional to be purchased.

Hi PHIL,

Mounting BLOCK`S ,

I did ask you about these as i have STAGEA S2,& are line`s are 830mm long & have 3 block`s in are set up,

These Photo`s will show you what a few are on about ,post-36964-1277350628_thumb.jpgpost-36964-1277351110_thumb.jpg,

Cheer`s Chuckie.

So that is on the front of a Stagea? I could have sworn my front was mounted differently. Damnit i'm going to have to take the front wheel off and have a better look at it. As the rear, from the picture I posted above, looks like a piece of piss to swap.

Hi PHIL,

Yes front Series2 ,

Great, thanks for that Phil. I didn't really understand what the mounting blocks were because I had a look at my stock brake lines and they look pretty much exactly the same as the braided ones (obviously rubber though, not braided lol). I just wanted to make sure that you needed mounting blocks for braided lines to stop them rubbing against other soft lines or something like that, but now I'm fairly sure that it is a fairly straightforward swap.

i thought these would be a peace of piss to install as well, the fronts are easy as, the rears are a pain in the ass for me to try undo the line from the bracket, if i knew this before attempting to install i'd go get a quote for somewhere else to install. i ended up nearly stripping the nut on the rears. not trying to put anyone off doing it themselves, but i let those bastards soak in wd40 for ages applying a bit more every 2nd day and still no luck, maybe its just my brake lines and no one will have any problems. just some input. thats for a 33gtst to.

These incompetent c*nts are really testing my f**king nerves now. Once again no replies to e-mails and i'm going to have to make another international phonecall if I don't hear from them by tomorrow. This time im letting loose, I just don't give a shit any more.

Righteo got a reply boys. They have been completed and are boxed up, just awaiting FedEX to pick them up. If they are not sent out this week we have been offered a £500 refund so it is safe to say they will get sent in the next couple of days.

This nightmare is almost over! If the kits are wrong/missing parts/for a motorbike/don't fit/you get a Honda Accord kit etc than I am off to Mexico!

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
