I'm after all the brackets, rubbers bolts etc for fitting smics,

 

My zed had a fmic fitted by a previous owner, and all the fixings are gone,

 

And my garage was flooded yesterday so my spare are either ruined or inaccessible... (burst water main apparently)

I might have the brackets, somewhere in my garage. The bolts are standard m8 I think

Let me know if you do, and how much. would ideally like them for the long weekend, I could come and get them if need be.

Hi,

 

Had a look and I must have binned them sorry.

If it comes to it i'd consider swapping my side mounts+brackets+money for your front mount if it would help you?

Tbh the front mount was already off the car, unfortunately it was in the garage so is full of dirty water, it was only a cheap fmic by the looks.

Well if its better than the stock smic (as they are quite restrictive ~Si), and I'm not going to have to hacksaw and zip tie it in place then it seems like a no brainer lol.

You may have to trip your bumper depending on which you have, I did for my 99 spec, it would probably need some new brackets to mount it ones I removed were very rusty, can't stress enough it would need a proper clean, the water it was submerged in was full of clay and dirt

 

But given its condition I'd direct swap it for the brackets etc.

I'm not going to commit yet, but I'll see if you get someone else first. My only concern is the mounting as 1. I do not want to trim my bumper and 2. I don't have equipment for aluminium welding and I don't really want to make big steel ones.

 

So I'll see what happens

Fair enough, it's one of the main reasons I'm going back to smics because I've a brand new 99 spec which I'm not prepared to cut up.

When you have time could you take a picture with it next to where it mounts to so I could judge how difficult it would be to fit in. And could I get the pipework extensions that go to the fmic?

Will see if I've any pictures, roughly speaking you just need 90 degree brackets, that's what I removed,

 

Tbh I've a set of smics going soon, bought to test, have been on the car a couple of months, got carried away and ordered even bigger ones and2.5 inch pipe work from z1

I've got some standard intercoolers and brackets etc, I'd do you a swap Ash
