This from an email I recieved from Mike Saiki;

I am ready to go out of business. I can't afford to do anymore new projects with the Nissans. I've gone another $17,000 in debt the last year. I will be going back to my Chevys.

I guess my plans for a motivational suspension setup is toast.

Why is this in the NX forum is what Im wondering. :confused:

becuase we are the quickest of the sr20 family

becuase we are the quickest of the sr20 family

Yeah what he said. But on a seriuos note thats a shame that one of the sr20 vendors is leaving.

Why is this in the NX forum is what Im wondering.
Because Mike Saiki had worked with me to develope and manufactor a rear STB for the NX2000.

So Tom is that it, no chance for t-top bar?What about the foam-seal.It's to bad he has to abandon Nissan development.Guy has to make a living. Well living in Cali maybe you can find somebody else with the time and materials to come up with a tie-bar?THIS DOES SUCK! The bar you developed is this what I got for my car?The friction fit RSB? Works great with no hatch alignment problems.

I'm in contact with someone now. I'll keep you all posted.

The bar you developed is this what I got for my car?
I don't know what you have in your car:p

You know which one I mean.The 68.00 bar that pushes out the rear strut towers.Ring a bell?

Nope, that's not what Mike and Tom developed. The Motivational bar bolts to the rear strut towers and has adjustable pre-load. It's a great product and I'm very glad I got my hands on one while it was still available.

Yeah that one.:)

Hey Beavis this sucks! If the R@D is done whats it take to crank out some more of these bad boys?Should be mostly profit at this point?I don't understand that aspect.I could see not developing new items,but existing products should still be available with little cost?:confused:

gotcha!!! ;)

damn, I keep getting "Subculture" and "Sub Function" mixed up!!!
I didnt mean that to come off rude. :)

Right it must have been the other sub that pimped the RSB that I have.Sorry

First, he would have to have all of the materials needed to make the STBs on hand.

Second, he would have to have the demand to justify building additional STBs.

Subculture,

Did I read that right? You have a rear stabilizer bar (RSB) on your NX?
Where did you get it? Do you know anyone that sells the front stabilizer as well? I want to pick up both stabilizer bar for my NX2K.

By stabilizer bar, do you mean Strut Tower Brace? Or anti-sway bar?

In anycase, the answer is yes.
I have the Motivational Engineering (www.motivational.net) rear STB. The Stillen front STB. Suspension Techniques front anti-sway bar. N-Tech rear adjustable anti-sway bar.

The front STB was purchased from Stillen
The rear STB was purchased from Motivational (duh).
The front ant-sway bar was purchased from Gravity Motorsports (no longer in business).
And the rearadjustable anti-sway bar was purchased from Ken Nord.

thanks Sub! I have to get with the lingo around here. :o

hey, what about the N-tech front under-body brace, how do we get one of these now?
