Next I welded in some new capture nuts for the rear seats and patched jagged hole in the side of the tub.

Now I'm waiting for my replacement floor pan to come in so that when I'm home next I can replace that, put the Tub/Floor/Firewall back together and back to the body guy it will go for final body work and maybe paint!!

Yes it is the Wilwood one. I had ordered it before I saw the one that you got from Aus. With some alterations of the mounting holes if works. Does the one you have mount right up without modification?

You can get a Wilwood that had already been modified to mount correctly. It's for an early Z car. You can find them on eBay sometimes. I've posted a link for it before, just can't seem to find it right now.
From how it looks, the Aussie one I got from Protex will bolt right up... I held it up next to a factory Patrol MC, and the bolt holes seem to be spaced the same.
