i'm just looking at either some autotencia or monza ones from autobarn, i can buy the adaptor rails too. so your isurance was all fine with it? or did you not bother to put it as an extra?
i dont think iv said anything haha cant remember if you get them installed by a pro and the seats comply with australian standards i dont see why they would care.
Haha cheers mate Well she went on the dyno today and made 130rwkw for just a stock 6 with headers high flow filter with cold air intake and exhaust all up I'm happy with how she went
well not really a car update but an update as to why not alot has happened to the ute haha! My new Toy! (car is filthy by the way lol) CBR 250rr
bikes, i feel that haha. just a quick question about your seat man. when you had the stock seats removed and you went to take the sliders off the botto of them to transfer onto the sports seats did you have a hard time undoing the alan key bolts? mine are locktighted so hard on that i am only stripping them. they have no chance in hell of coming off.
cheers mate. and yeah mine were super tight i basically got the allen key and then got a pole that fit over it so use as an extension to get more leverage
got them off of a mate i think they are off of the earlier models im not to sure i would have to ask him!
mine are only just stripping more and more. i think i'm going to have to get rails from the wreckers or something, they are literally not budging.
Can you get a hacksaw blade in there? Cut a slot in it and use an impact screw give it a good smack so it cracks then wind it out with some vise grips and buy a new set of bolts. Or try a little heat with an oxy pen if you havent stripped it out.
yeah i ended up getting a second set of rails just incase i stuffed something haha think they cost me $12 for two sets, and yeah if you can get in there you could try V8VKJoe's idea or mabe even try get some vice grips nice and tight on them. hopefully you can get them out alright and if ya do get them out dont put them back in get some new ones or if you can replace them with new ones or some decent second hand ones
thanks for the replies fellas. i tried the hacksaw thing, i couldn't bend the rails far enough to get the blade in without doing damage. i'm going to hit up the wreckers tomorrow, saves effort and breakage. i'll let you guys know.
if ya where in adelaide man id try give ya a hand haha but good luck, let me know if there is anything else i can help ya with
I went and bought rails man. Beyond me on how you got them for 12 bucks haha. I called 6 wreckers and the most expensive for a pair was $150, i ended up buying them for $80. Oh well, what can I do. I'll let you know how install number two comes along.
wow that is expencive! i got them from U pull it which is a wreckers where you take the part out yourself haha yeah keep us posted mate
Ahh nooooiiice! What'd u get it out of? And has that got the std pulley or is it the smaller/higher-boost one? Sry not that well versed in the super6's. Should haul ass when it's all hooked up though! +1 for Maccas too, I remember the late nights swapping my VN motor, the big M becomes ur best friend.. Mmmmmm McTransfluid :smoking:
completely stock for now and its out of a VT calais, yeah should give it a little bit of go now. ok just a couple more photos as we have just pulled it out the back of the ute today now to clean it up make sure everything is right, then start the install which will hopefully be in 2weeks
