Well I put on my roof racks to get some measurements for a roof rack basket, going to use that for the kids bikes.. ( as we lack a decent tow bar) .

So been slack and left them on. . was at shops and noticed on my return 1 side was unscrewed from the front one. . both bolts. .

I bit suss in my view. . or am I paranoid. . I find it hard the screws just happened to come undone like that. .

It's hard enough to get them for M35 stags as it is, would hate to lose them. .

Torx safety bolts and lots of loctite lol

dont put too much faith in torx bolts. anyone can buy a full set of torx tools from supercheap for under $20. granted it does make it harder to steal them, but if they are a pro they will come prepared.dont forget, while your in there shopping. professional car thieves are doing their shopping in the carpark!!!

lol if they were pro theyd be stealing more than the roof racks

not nessessarily. ive seen cars that were broken into just to steal the stereo and very little to no damage done to door locks

Ever tried taking a stereo out of a M35 Stag, good luck. . lol

you've agreed entirely with my statement. lol i think to the public eyes. a stereo is more valuable than roof racks.

    • 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    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
