Tank fixing
I am wondering what is the best way of securing the tank in my car. I am using a Grp rear end.
What have people done?

I have bought some aluminium to make the supports but I am wondering the best way to attach them. If I use coach bolts to the rear of the chassis where it meets up with grp will it cause problems with fitting the rear panel?

Rivnuts are good for fitting/fixing most things to the chassis,look prettier too.
M & S nuts and bolts do any amount of them at Newburn/Lemington

Hi Paul (sorry Dave for this wee threadjack) getting my head around the wiring like having to splice in the 200sx's engine/ecu loom.....i am getting there with a little help from a guy on Driftworks who is a demigod of the ca18det engine...just got a good crank off ebay with a new spigot bearing (worth £9 alone) for the princely sum of £15
 so the crank was 6 notes and only in Sunderland
