Still need to clean it up a bit but here's one of your spacers, it's a very tight fit on to the RCA, hopefully it fits into the strut.

Alrighty so my plan was to just go all out and not post on here and just show up at Akaroa..... still on trackish but I'm pretty stoked with some of the work I've done lately so thought I would share
BOV all plumbed up nicely and exhaust side rocker cover fitting plumbed into the turbo intake.
Bought some shorter shocks to keep the rears captive. These are from an HX Holden and work perfectly!
Got this oil pressure sender a while ago from work should hopefully make my oil pressure gauge work.
Friday and Saturday were spent trying to suss out my driveshaft hoop. After a lot of head scratching and looking at others online I came up with this idea which should work perfectly! Got my mig welder that I got ages ago working so was able to tack it all up. Clint from oldschool who is a certifier up north said it looked good to him so I'll see if Nick can tig it for me then I'll drill the holes in the bar and the floorpan. Done!!
I decided to just bite the bullet and get the R31 conversion cables from Datsport they should arrive soon all going to plan.
So once the handbrake cables are in and driveshaft hoop is finished it's basically just the interior to complete which is kind of daunting to be honest.... I still need to bleed up the cooling system properly but that can wait for now. There is no way I'm going to be getting cert before labour day so looks like I'm going to have to be naughty...... That's if I get it done of course too... So any volunteers for help will be much appreciated!!
