Utec hardware ??

turtle1678 · 07-19-2008, 06:00 AM

hey guys I just purchased a Utec form another member and its in great condition and has everything but the mounting hardware. I'm missing the 3 spacers, I called Utec and they don't have them anymore what can I do to mount this thing and does it ground out through any of those screws?? Please help guys

sorry dude. I just came across my mounting spacers last week, and I threw them out! they aren't needed with the G35 install. Who knows how long they had been siting around before I found them.

It grounds from the auxiliary wire connector, and the mounting screws are a standard metric thread (m6 I believe?), although finding a standoff like that might be hard. You'll probably either have to modify it to take a standard bolt or have something ordered/made to spec.

I just used two 6mm bolts and nut welded the nut to the top of the bolt work fine just like the ones that come with the kit

Do you still need the mounting standoffs?

If you want to go the DIY route, you can just do what I did. I have pics in my build thread.
