kkzz0818: Personally I think they are worth buying. However I suggest you wait because I know someone who will be making a better designed kit in the near future.

greddy_es: The colour is nice however no one will see it once they're installed

Commodity explanation...? lol I think I missed that boat.

Anyway the bushes and gauge pods look awesome Daz, the bushes look pretty damn sweet. Can't wait to see the next set of mods you have planed for this car.

kkzz0818: No worries man. I'll be sure to let you know once they are produced.

evl_132: Thanks Adrian. It's just a matter of aquiring more parts and actually fitting the parts I currently have

squigg: Stupid N/A? Man I still love that thing! Apart from the engine it's actually in pretty good condition and the interior is in mint condition! I can't wait for the BEAMS 3S-GE to go in it.

dez: I completely forgot about that! Thanks for reminding me. I'll get onto that soon man.

Hi mister_two.
Just a quick q. Are those pink shifter bushes the same as the ones that twos rus sells which are called "Solid Brass Shift Cable Bushings".

If so, can you please inform me of where you got them? I think I need new shifter bushes.
Shifting throw has been extremely sloppy and long... I've adjusted the shifter cables to the max already and still to no avail...
I have just posted up a thread about my problem, please check it out :P

kkzz0818: No they aren't the same item. The Garage Active (purple things I have) are shifter base bushings, which go on the shifter plate.

The Twos R Us "Solid Brass Shift Cable Bushings" are different and attach to the end of your shift cables

kkzz0818: Garage Active also make shifter cable bushings but they are very expensive $240 before shipping.

The Twos R Us items would be much easier to obtain not to mention cheaper.

It has been awhile since I've updated this thread. Not a lot of news apart from various parts arriving (I have a couple of things planned for the GT-S) and also working on the BEAMS 3S-G rebuild for the G-Limited.

But I thought people would be interested in this:

Speed Source (Twosrus) vs. Garage Active shifter base bush comparison.

Gold = Speed Source (Twosrus)
Purple = Garage Active








Thanks to Nick (MRGen3Turbo) and Travis (Kameleon) for working on and cleaning my car last Saturday. It's a pity we couldn't roll the guards of both cars but we did get a bit done with a few dramas.

Below are a few pictures taken that evening and early the following morning:









More to come in the next couple of months

hobo906: Thanks. Nick took those pictures around 3:00AM after so many drinks. His car (on the left) is absolutely immaculate!
