The stuff you can do Scott is mind blowing. You are just amazing in what you think of, and then what you can make. Awesome

Thanks for the offer Harv. I will borrow them if I may, when you get back.

Given there are so many HR fronts are out there, I'll take a few pics and post the process when it happens.

Thanks Rob. Much appreciated.

Many thanks for your reply Rob.
I understand the equal distance measure method and used that on the sedan front end. On the ute though, I am a little worried that the arms might have been spread out and I was thinking that if I had the tool it would sort that issue out. If nothing comes up, I will ...

I have recently discovered that the bushes I had replaced by a renowned local mechanic 12 months ago were not installed correctly and I need to pull them out and redo them to get the bushes sitting properly and the spaces even.

Does anyone know what the dimension is for both top and bottom HR ...

It's a few years now, but I remember on my ute that the bows confused me too. I think from memory there is a curved wire each side of the centre light that the lining goes through. These wires are held in place against the roof support by little triangle shaped tabs. I fitted these first to the ...

Thanks Greg.
I understand that 2.25 inch diameter is the sweet spot for holden sixes, and matches to the extractor outlet size. My dyno is my butt, and my butt says its degrees quicker than it was driving it in for the work compared to driving it home.

Yes Lawrence is amazing at Speeds. I think he is no longer a Rares franchise unfortunately.

Wow, thanks Harv. The exhaust fellow said that with better flow the muffler and pipe is less hot so that all makes sense too. I can attest that better flow means more ponies

I have one, but it is in need of a rechrome. Send me a pm if you get stuck. Brett

I put an order in with Rares on line on the weekend. They are usually quick to post and bits arrive in a few days. I sent an email to see how it was going and this is the reply:

"Thanks for reaching out.

I can confirm we have stock of your order and it will be sent out at our earliest ...

That's bad news. Speedy recovery Blacky.

In practice a small increase from 2 inch to 2.25 inch, but that small diameter change increases the flow (in theory) by about 26%. Combined with the better design of the pipe layout (particularly between the extractors and the muffler) and importantly, the uniform pipe size through the bends, the ...

New exhaust on yesterday to make it exhale better. I finally put the tow bar back on and the old exhaust no longer fitted without banging on things. So it had to be upgraded. Geoff at GRod Exhaust in Latham, ACT did a neat job and it has a nicer tone and maximum flow with its mandrel bends and shiny ...

Hi Scott. Exactly the same experiences with the quarter vent windows. I used Better Auto rubber kit on the ute and ended up ditching the vent rubbers and getting Rares. I also ditched the door window felt strip's as they just wouldn't snap in the door holes. Rares worked there as well.
Would be ...
