Today we show you the newly installed drive shaft hoop with tight, secure fitting and excellent clearance throughout the vehicle. We discuss how it accommodates the gear shifter’s movement while staying safely away from the exhaust system. We then take you topside to demonstrate the doubler plates we’ve fitted to reinforce the drive shaft hoops, including the removal of sound deadening for proper metal-to-metal contact and a seatbelt anchorage doubler plate that we’ll cover in detail in a future video.

Today we took delivery of the new Recaro SR-S seat!

What would you put these into??

This is the UT100 trim which comes in an array of different colour options as well as having heated seat pad as an option.
These seats are off to a lucky customer in Wellington where they will be installed into a VE commodore by one of our trusted partners down there.

Having seen these in person, they are an absolutely stunning looking seat!

You can also see the Black/Grey version of the same seat pictured behind it.

We've recently supplied an ECU Master Black ECU and interconnector kit for a customer down in the South Island. They are going to be running this in an ST150 Ford Fiesta.
ECU Master makes a pretty good range of interconnector kits however some makes and models are made by other ECU Master affiliates like the one we have here.
As there is a pretty large worldwide ECU MASTER following, there are also lots of other clever businesses that manufacture supporting hardware that we work with so we can order custom components to suit many different vehicles.

Contact us today for ECU Master products to [email protected] or go to www.strangeworkshop.co.nz to see if we can help you!

Do you have an off roader that you want to put some new seats in but also want to keep it legal with LVV certification and retain your factory seat belt position?

We have the solution!

We can offer bottom mount rails for standard bucket seat or side mount for your race seat applications when a more supportive seat is required, this will also give you adjustability in your seat when required.

As usual, these are LVV compliant so you will be able to get these certified with the rest of your modifications and the best part is, you get factory slide-ability and you don't need to relocate your seatbelt stork to the floor with these for that hassle free OEM seatbelt position!

Contact us to check out our range of vehicles, we probably have yours listed!

The JZX platform has been a chassis we have been asked for seat rails on numerous occasions and now we have the solution for you!

From the Mark 2/Chaser (and other appropriate sub models) made from 1976 until 2004 we are able to offer seat rails for you!

We are also able to supply side mount rails for your road going race car if you have full racing bucket seats.

There are some options here and you may need spacers etc depending on seats so contact us for more information.

You didn't think we just did Japanese vehicles with our seat rails did you?
The BMW 3 series is an Icon around the world and has been for 60 years!
We are stoked to be able to supply LVV compliant seat rails for every 3 series BMW from the E30 right through to the current G80 models and not only that, we can also supply for 1 Series, 2 Series, 4 Series, 5 Series, 6 & 7 Series....
Pluuuuuuuus certain X1 through to X7 series and Z3 and Z4 models!

We are really covering all bases here!

We’ve just had this vehicle arrive after waiting on OEM parts to arrive from Japan and after only a short time we have everything fitting with no interference or modification of critical parts.
Sadly this is all too common and we fix this kind of thing often. There is also usually a solution that doesn’t require any chopping of impact/bumper support bars and if there is, we consult the certifier to get clarification on what we can or can’t remove.
