What's the warranty return process on these, mine has paint peeling and is starting to rust... :P

Oh no! Thats terrible mate!

You send it back & I'll be sure to run it through the latest, high tech "Multi-layer non-temperature controlled rattlecan atomized liquid envelopment process"

Nothing is too much trouble for you mate.

The price is $150 delivered anywhere in Australia (except WA & FNQ; add $10) includes all mounting hardware, and a significant amount of stickytape if you're a wiseguy; eh Ryan?

NOTE; This batch will not be powdercoated as part of the price, as my mate has finished up his coating business. However, if there is a need; I can enquire into the cost of individual unit price (any colour), or a job lot in one colour ONLY (same as the OX brace makes sense).

The others were powdercoated?

I wonder if Scotty's coating coming off & your mate 'finishing up' his coating business have anything in common? :whistling:

Lol Leon, yeah, the pieces are all falling into place now!

He sold the business recently, after a very messy split with his business partner. I worked with him essentially free of charge as a favour for almost a year to help him finish all the unfinished project work that his partner had taken on and subsequently dumped when he left.

Along with stealing equipment from the workshop and funneling vast amounts of cash out of the business he indirectly cost John his marriage.

John sold his stake in the business to his ex partner; who is now making all sorts of promises to other unsuspecting businesses, and customers, and telling all sorts of lies about John as well. They will no doubt find out the hard way fairly shortly.

Anyway, the only ones to be powdercoated was the most recent bulk run of 16 that I did. Any issues with that lot would be entirely my own, as I did all the prep, and coating myself; with John observing.

All the others were sprayed, and Scotty's was one of the first out.

I can vouch for the quality of packaging. These will not get damage in transit!

Ya scumbag! :nyaanyaa:

Hello Gentlemen;

I know it's been a while.

I have 4 braces that will be ready to go out within a week or so; and another 5 the week after that.

Any takers?

As before; They are black, come with all mounting hardware and are awesome.

$150 delivered, add $10 if you live in WA, FNQ, or Tassie.

Cheers, Dale.

Hi Dale. Since I want mine in silver I'm happy to wait for the next batch & get an unpainted one.

Or I'll just paint over the black....

Either way I'll take one when you're ready.

    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
    • Skip the concrete, we just need to smooth a field. Mark knows how to drive a grader Duncan   I reckon 100x100 flat area for skid pan style, and then some sort tracks for rally... Duncan's already got a rally car on the premises to...
    • Well, yeah, the RB26 is definitely that far off the mark. From a pure technology point of view it is closer to the engines of the 60s than it is to the engines of the last 10 years. There is absolutely nothing special about an RB26 that wasn't present in engines going all the way back to the 60s, except probably the four valve head. The bottom end is just bog standard Japanese stuff. The head is nothing special. Celicas in the 70s were the same thing, in 4cyl 2 valve form. The ITBs are nothing special when you consider that the same Celicas had twin Solexes on them, and so had throttle plates in the exact same place. There's no variable valve timing, no variable inlet manifold, which even other RBs had either before the 26 came out or shortly afterward. The ECU is pretty rude and crude. The only things it has going for it are that the physical structure was pretty bloody tough for a mass produced engine, the twin-turbos and ITBs made for a bit of uniqueness against the competition (and even Toyota were ahead on the twin turbs thing, weren't they?) and the electronic controls and measuring devices (ie, AFMs, CAS, etc) were good enough to make it run well. Oh, and it sounds better than almost anything else, ever. The VR38 is absolutely halfway between the RB generation and the current generation, so it definitely has a massive increase in the sophistication of the electronics, allowing for a lot more dynamic optimisation of mapping. Then there's things like metal treatments and other coatings on things, adoption of variable cam stuff, and a bunch of other little improvements that mean it has to be a better thing than the RB26. But I otherwise agree with you that it is approximately the same thing as a 26. But, skip forward another 10 years from that engine and then the things that I mentioned in previous post come out to play. High compression, massively sophisticated computers, direct injection, clever measuring sensors, etc etc. They are the real difference between trying to make big power with a 26 and trying to make big power with a S/B50/54 (or whatever the preferred BMW engine of the week is).
