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!

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
