Signature Swaybars in Sydney.....Todd Selby, and yes he's is from the Selby family.
Not quiet sure how whiteline swaybars came about but it sounds like they may have bought out selby or something like that which is why selby doesnt exist anymore?
He makes all swaybars to order...no stock kept
There handmade, ends look pretty close to factory but sits just the same and once painted black you wouldnt know the difference looking thru the engine bay
$319 incl gst delivered to my door, nsw central coast
Ask for Todd 029525 5619..tell him you seen some pics of Kev's from gosford

I can't believe it was oct 2007 that i sprayed my lc gtr. She's been under cover since then, only to move when I slipped in the new 2600s.
Since then I've been flatout on other resto work and haven't had time to get her on the road. Well that all changed, in the past 2 weeks I managed to fitout the hood lining, door trims, full rubber kit, new glass all round, got the lights/blinkers going
Sent her up to Pedders to have the rebuilt suspension aligned and tommorow she's off to have the lc gtr resonator and twin 'y'rear muffler fitted.
Still need to get the steering wheel, console and seat re-done then its very close to rego time
Thanks goes out to 'meanmachine' for the xu1 muffler loaner....i promise you'll get it back by this week!

Hi gtr161s,
I am just taking off the rear quarters off my donnor car,I emailed you a couple of years ago but I have since moved and built a new house so I haven't done any more work on my torana.
Where did you join the donnor quarter to the existing car around the pop out windows, I can not decide where to join it.
Your GTR is looking excellant.
Cheers John.

Hi John
I had to unpick the gutter running down the quarter as it showed rust...once that was removed I could seperate the quarter under that section by unpicking around quarter window frame all the way to door pillar.
Try to avoid any weld or heat that can destort the recessed area running along behind gutter, its not impossible to reshape it but cuts out unecessary work.
