Indeed it did. This was supposedly an upgraded one made of stronger aluminum than the one that broke on Swifty. Jay now offers that bracket made out of steel.

So it's an easy fix. I was able to get a hold of jay from Jay racing and he said he can ship a new one out tomorrow. It was either another aluminum one free of charge or an upgraded steel one for $25. I went with the steel one to hopefully avoid this issue in the future.
Badass, glad to hear its something easy and not too expensive!

Yeah me too! It was a first for me and this car lol


Well I got the new alt bracket yesterday. Being steel It is definitely a lot heavier or a lot more stout. Hopefully I won't have any problems with this one for a long time. I put the car back together tonight. I just need to charge the battery and fire her up.

I'm waiting on a vband and clamp clamp for my exhaust. Hopefully it will be here early next week. As of right now it's setup to swap turbos and have the exhaust done next Saturday. I'm really just hoping things go smoothly and as planned over the next few weeks so I can finally have some fun with this bish.

Well finished up the car tonight. Charged up the battery and fired her up. Still wasn't charging. The alt fuse blew. Put a new fuse in and she's good to go charging at 14.3v :-).

Also got the stuff for the turbo swap and my exhaust today. I had to track it down at the brewing supply company next door cause FedEx doesn't know how to deliver to the right place. The turbo swap and exhaust will be done this Saturday. I'm excited to finally get the 6766 on the car!

Ah yes the weather is finally starting to get nicer! I'll be doing some cruising this weekend. You're welcome to join if you want. It won't be much fun until the 22nd assuming all goes well

Aaaannndddd keeping with the grand scheme of things not one thing can go right with this car. So now my starter went out. I was able to track down a used one to get me by for now. I just can't catch a break with this thing. I'm soooo effing sick of it and am losing my motivation for working on it fast.

Well, pretty soon the whole electrical system will be new so you shouldn't have to fuck with it!

Just ask swifty what he touched and replaced it.

Buy mine and do auto swap and use the other one as a DD/beater car.

Ha unfortunately because of the one I have I have no monies so buying another one will be kind of hard lol. If I had the money Ipprobably would though

Sell yours to a kid that thinks DSMs are the shit, then buy mine and show him.

Unfortunately I don't think I'll ever be able to sell this car. In the 10 months I've owned it I justhave to much time and money into it. Plus if I did sell it I would buy another hayabusa and turbo it
