  1. OK At the widest point 380mm At the highest point 216mm Hope that helps
  2. Hi Patch Great job, I have actually done the measurements and they fit right over the raised edge of each reflector, so imagine the base having 10mm of clearance all around. Second, I think you will find that if you turn them upside down so as the one you have on the left is transferred to the right and visa versa they will look better again due to the angle of the lenses. And finally rather than a black base for the tail lamp panel, try a dark argent grey which wont clash as badly. Do this and I think you will capture what I have in mind. Cheers John
  3. Nismo and Patch Good try, but I will get the boy wonder I sporned to get off his ASS and have a crack at it, the kids unbelievable and owes me, will post when its done. Stivva, thanks mate, but the only thing I have to warn you about with the 2DIN is that the console has to be dissected and widened some 4cm's Cheers John
  4. Mike, I have to be honest and say I am still coming to grips with some of the commentary you are providing, nevertheless, I'm sure the result will be something for a lot of people to look forward to as i will be. Ive decided to sit back and watch what you accomplish as retrofitting a system like this does pose some issues as far as not enough actuators for the old Datsun setup, think you know what i mean. Cheers John
  5. Oh dont worry Simon, You will get a chance to see it up close and personal soon I hope when its cheaper by the 1/4 dozen day at my place to build the chassis for "Das Drehkraftmonster" LOL
  6. Good man Alan Maybe it will inspire me to pull my finger out LOL No just kidding, some good and bad news i have been hiding, First the bad I NO LONGER HAVE THE ZED Well I do but its not at my residential address any longer and I feel empty without it I shifted it and all its BITS back to my folks place some 10 km's away, 3 times the amount of work space, no nagging wife saying " My BMW is going to get wrecked parked outside" and no kids trying to get to their bikes etc etc etc. This was a MAMMOTH task considering it had no wheels, suspension NUTHING ! and I had to do it on my own. Anyhow a pic of it in its new home, and also a first time ever full front on shot of the nose, now I can really get an idea of what it looks like, never had the space previously to get a good look. Cheers John P.S. hurry up Alan, I really want to see your craft.
  7. OK, Just putting the fealers out to see whether my old box stays in storage or goes due to the new motor using a tiptronic auto. The box hasnt cranked over in 16 years and before that operated faultlessly. For those interested its located in Maribyrnong Victoria 3032 Cheers John
  8. Hi Guys I have decided to go with an alternative upgrade for my rear brakes, therefore I am putting these up for sale. The price includes (X2) R31 rear callipers fully reconditioned and powder coated red (NO PADS) (X2) NEW DBA rear vented rotors (X2) Lurch Motorsport modified mounting brackets $600.00 May seem a bit steep but do the math Cheers John
  9. Think Mike is on the ball. Why dont you contact Freddy at TOPSTAGE, I believe he has made up moulds and can do them in carbon fibre also.
  10. HA, The bug got you Mike ! Cant wait to see some pics
  11. Hey Benny Have to be honest and reserve my opinion until the flares are on, but I dont mind them, one question though............. Being a pimped out ride now, Is that what pimps do with anything less than a $50 note when theirs Ho's pay them?
  12. Sirpent

    roof solder

    This may be your alternative, Its a metal epoxy filler, Ive used these Knead it products before and they are very versitile http://www.selleys.com.au/putty/epoxy/knead-it-steel Cheers John
  13. Happy Birthday Pete !
  14. All the best Gav for Yesterday that would be today your time LOL............. Cheers John
  15. My vote Modern, Retro, and up there with some of the best at what could be considered a reasonably priced super car. I think this car for all the work put into it as far as encapsulating its fore runner was just so well executed by Henry's boys that you couldn't knock it back, well in my book anyhow!
  16. Seriously sensational work, beyond what any one would reasonably expect !
  17. Thanks Mike, Unfortunately I had no sound on the Youtube clip as I mentioned in my first post after David embedded the link, so I could only make out what was happening visually. Cheers John
  18. Where there is a will there is a way........... Good work Pete.
  19. Hi David, With all the security features that intergrate into the system, I take it that this meant you needed to negate many of them by dummying signals, would that be correct? Any chance of giving us a rundown on some of them as an example? I wish I could figure out why my sound isnt working, seems ok with all the other app's Cheers John
  20. This is James' car, he has it here for sale on one of the threads, think from memory his user name is nacks
  21. BRILLIANT David, Congratulations ! For some stupid reason the sound isn't working on my speakers nevertheless the sight of it in action still paid divedends. Cheers John
  22. Dave, Im sure if you plan to do so, a few of us would pitch in with a cheaper by the dozen weekend in Florida ! You just need to pay the airfares LOL
  23. Go Rev, well done mate ! Hope all is well over in them there parts, from the looks of things they must be seeing you found a new toy. Dont be a stranger....... Cheers John
  24. Youre the man, At least that gives me some idea, these are a different design to the ones I pictured but the dimensions are the same, would wtill like to see them grafted to an S30 just out of interest. Cheers John
  25. LOL Mike, You and I must have been bitten by the same bug when it comes to buying new toys, you will know what I mean when you read my latest post LMAO But hey, a mans got to get around when his main steed is off the road so I would call your purchase an investment rather than a toy. Nice bike. Cheers John
