B13 Sentra Rear Strut Tower Brace

'Standard' Version - STATUS = late R&D / pre-production:

*The (hopefully) final pre-production batch (qty 5) of blocks and brackets are being machined
right now, and should be done today. If they are all done today, I'll get them welded up
tonight or tomorrow night. Hopefully it will fit just right and will be the end of R&D.

Material - 6061 Aluminum (except steel hex nuts)
Weight - Approximately 4 lbs.
Price - To be determined after final R&D. Target about $50 for qty. 50+, not including
shipping/handling(varies by ship-to location, $10-$15 lower 48 states, $30 HI).
Timeline - R&D / pre-production < 1 week + final commitment/orders(1-2 weeks?) + 1-2 weeks
material and schedule production + 1-2 weeks production + 1-2 weeks welding +
1-2 weeks packaging/shipping
Total = 5-11 weeks


'Triangulated' Version - STATUS = very early R&D:

I planned to use the fold-down seat mount locations initially, but Joel @ RandomThoughts
tried that - they are not strong enough. He gave me an idea for another option. I just
need to find time to work on it.
The original 'tri' design would have been a bolt-on addition to the standard version.
I'm not sure if that will work now.

Material - 6061 Aluminum (except steel hex nuts) + ???
Weight - 4 lbs. plus a couple more...
Price - To be determined after final R&D. Target ???, not including shipping/handling.
Timeline - R&D ???
Total = ???

Man that list just keeps growing. Take your time Josh. Looks like everything will be quality stuff.

phastphuker

What's up with the NX fitment? If it fits, when do we fit into the list? It seems that the B13 sentra guys keep commiting.

I finally got a phone number of a friend of a friend, that has an NX2K.

When the 5 pre-production brackets are welded, I'll call him to see if he'll let me test fit the RSTB on his car.

The parts were just handed to me from the manual mills, about 3 minutes ago.
The welder should be able to weld them tonight, after work.

i emailed you- put me on the list for sure

'Standard' Version - STATUS = late R&D / pre-production:

* The (hopefully) final pre-production batch (qty 5) of blocks and brackets are welded.
I test fit one set - fit just fine. It's been on my car since 1/16 a.m.
Saturday, 1/18, I'll test fit the other 4 pre-production pieces, on 2 my '93 and on
se-r pastor's '94, just to make sure.

** I'm getting quotes for powdercoating and also anodizing. Aluminum will oxidize. It does
not look as bad as rust on steel, but I think it's a good idea to have a finish on it.
So for those of you who don't re-install your back seat, or have a gutted car, it would
look better! (My back seat has been removed since November...)

Material - 6061 Aluminum (except steel hex nuts)
Weight - Approximately 4 lbs.
Price - To be determined after final R&D. Target about $50 for qty. 50+, not including

"I HOPE THAT'S NOT GOING TO BE AN EXTRA CHARGE"

Obviously powdercoat/anodizing are not free. I'm in the process of getting quotes.
The order volume is approaching 150 total. With that volume, the price should still be close to the original target, while providing a better product.

I have not collected money from anyone.
The final details will be very clear before any money is accepted.

cranium

also you may think about the can of worms you may open with powder coating or anodizing cause you may have approx. 150 ppl telling you they want a different color or finish. otherwise you make the decision on what needs to be done and the ppl will have to live with it.

jp314

If it gets a finish, it will most likely be powdercoated black or anodized black (maybe anodized clear).
The price would increase too much to offer color options. The main goal is to protect it from oxidation, not for style.
For most people, it will be out of view anyway.

Hawaii_SE-R

Damn! There goes the thought of a Turbonium green rSTB in my AzRed SE-R. j/k Josh, you could offer to send the item coated in a good layer of primer.

sno

regular metal color is fine with me ::

Hawaii_SE-R

It now shows that jp314 is a guest?!?!? I know he's registered as a user on this website and a few others but what are the chances that my profile will be lost in the future like Josh's?

Anyway, Josh is worried that his previous posts may be lost if he re-registers under the same name.

But back to the rSTB color. Maybe a clear anodized coat on a well polished rSTB would be a nice choice.
