this is my 1200 coupe, its kind of a slow project that i still drive.
i bought it pretty much how it is at the moment.
it has CA18det and 5 speed box, turbonetics turbo and external gate, ems4860 computer, 706cc injectors, apexi boost controller, front mount intercooler, plumb back blow off valve, r31 fuel tank with walbro pump, r31 diff and brakes on rear, s13 coilovers and camber tops on front with s13 brakes to go with it.
since i have had it all i have really done is put in all the basic things to get it roadworthy and registered.
made up an alloy dash plate to replace the mdf one that was in there, and just tried to generally tidy it up a bit.

so i started making up my tramp bars today, i decided to go with a 7/16 rod end. mainly because the bigger sizes just look like overkill and were way too expensive.
so far i have only made up the 8 plates as i am still deciding whether to go with a round bar or a sqaure bar.
i am also thinking of making the whole setup removable so it bolts on the spring retainer un the axel using the 4 bolts that are already there. but will see how i go.
anyway, couple of pics here.

I am really interested in your R31 fuel tank. Have you got any pics of that and info on fitting it up?
cheers
Bruce

ah i dont really have any info on how it all works, but i can try take some pictures of how it mounts etc a bit later.
so continuing my tramp rod journey.
i made up the first sets of plates, then thought i might be able to instead of welding them to the original spring retainer plates, make some plates that bolt in there so they are completely removable.
so i did.. measured it all up, cut the plates and welded them together.. welds are fairly dodgy as i only have my little gasless mig here.
one pic is of the new mounting plates, next one of them welded up.
