  1. There not prepped to just weld in . That needs to be done when its being put it in the car . well that\'s if its the same guy in chch i got mine off. I don\'t think you can get ready to weld kits and if you could i wouldn\'t want one. There is to many variables to allow for. Yeah at a guess you\'d have to get a big dollar kit from an overseas outfit like Sparco or maybe Prodrive? If you wanted a full on ready to weld in kit (even then I\'m not sure if they\'d be scalloped). Yes there are kits that are weld in pre bent/pre scolloped, with base plates etc supplied. All to MSNZ specs. They are no different to a normal custom built cage, its just a cost and time effective way to build a cage if you have the fabrication skills to fit them. I was referred to a group called Mc Carn or Mac Cairn motorsport or something along those lines in Christchurch that does these kits to MSNZ specs. I just cant seem to find them, probably as I cant spell the name. Does those names or similar ring any bell to anyone down there?
  2. Shipping\'s no problem. Im just after the tubes pre-bent and scolloped ready to weld in, then I will take care of the rest.
  3. Hi guys, does anyone know where I can buy a pre bent roll cage kit for my GC8 here in NZ. Im after a mild steel one and it must have the new larger main hoop. Cheers
  4. haha no way dude, i see more coming out. No dash just a few gauges and a motec digi display So youre going for a Track race car not Rally? Pretty much, i compete in anything I can really as long as it has corners

  6. It should be sweet man, just dont go hard around the last corner before the strait. That one has the potential to pull all your oil to one side.
  7. Completely stripped interior minus necessary parts. Removed AC. Now to get some pennies together for a roll cage!
  8. Yea its a beautiful wheel, much better than the factory one. Had to use a HKB boss and rewire the horn to it. The suede is great in the hands. Cheers ADIKT
  9. Cheers. Yep still DCCD. Shes pretty much stock, just a good exhaust and some GFB pulleys and GFB BOV and my Momo.
  10. Some footage up from another great event https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10151812345764487&set=vb.485990271464543&type=2&theater

  12. There\'s a lot of events at Hampton downs. From gymkhanas on the skid pad to track days. Its also good to check out your local car clubs as well. These guys put a few on. Price varies from event to event. https://www.facebook.com/AdvanceDrift?fref=ts
  13. Haha thanks, yeah tough love but she likes it rough!
  14. Hey guys thought some of you might be interested in checking out my wee motorsport page. I currently compete in gymkhana events and track/drift days in my STI Type R. Heres a few pics and if your interested hit like on my page any support is much appreciated! https://www.facebook.com/SpeedDogsRacing Cheers team!
  15. Thanks for the input! The gearbox internals look fine so now im going to check the CVs, should of probably done that first haha. Oh well now I know what the inside of the gearbox looks like!
  16. Pulled a DCCD box apart to see whats inside
  17. Hey guys, I recently installed a H/D puk clutch on my type R, it was a bad call. I was changing down to some lights and accidentally changed into to low a gear, a huge jolt went through the car when the clutch bit. I was running with the controller to the rear and was able to baby it to where I could diagnose it more. Now it drives with the controller to the rear, but when its right up to full lock it spits the dummy and crunches about. I have pulled the box apart and inspected the front part of the case and there doesn\'t seem to be any chips or obstructions, so does this sound like a buggered center diff? Any help is much appreciated Cheers
  18. I think that answers my question too as i run more or less the same car as you, thanks thorpy ;D
  19. Hey guys, Ive killed my clutch in my 98 STI Type R and need to get a new one. I\'ve started competing in events, most recently the drift cross events run by 4&Rota, And im after a fairly priced sports orientated clutch. I\'m ruining the factory engine of the Type R and DCCD box. Any suggestions on a good clutch kit to buy would be greatly appreciated Cheers, Nic
