shave that bolt down or just pull it out. the bracket will stay put with one bolt holding it in.

countersink the bracket and put a countersunk bolt in it. That's what I did on my old Integra

Grind the PS bracket bolt flange down a bit file it flat, grind half the head off that bolt and should fit.

Thanks for the suggestions, i was thinking of getting a M14 x 6mm spacer, then make a 2 pieces CNC aluminum to replace the bracket hehe... That would shave like 1lb and look prettier.

But I think going countersink + this bolt: http://www.onlinefasteners.com.au/on...ners/node/1079

Should get the job done and save some money haha...

@LKSi where did you get your M14 countersunk bolt? The site i found don't ship internationally. And I've been trying to find other place, none of them sells it (not on ebay either)

i just cut mine in half and just used the one bolt. make sure its level before you tighten it. works great.

That sounds so shitty. LST.

Mill the face down and use a shorter bolt with a countersunk head. That you can do at home if you are on a super budget with a grinder and you put the part in a drill press to countersink.

Anyone know where to get a M14 countersunk bolt? RenoDepot/HomeDepot/Rona here don't sell such a big bolt here (they have M14 but is not countersunk)

Basically need M14 x 45mm

You don't need to counter sink that, just take a grinder and notch the "bulge" flat with the flange. Will fit just fine, might even be able to use the same bolt.

Those bolts are going to be 10x1.25mm dude. Just because its a 14mm head doesn't mean anything.
