alright people are starting to ask questions about how its going to be made and where.

The trailer it self is going to be cut back to a bear A frame and then everything else will be custom only using the the old bbqs for parts.(Will have photos of the C.F.A Trailer soon )

This will all be built in dandenong south at a factory called PROVEX.

this will not be some shabby job we are going to make it the best trailer we have ever seen.

so more ideas and no more stuffing around we need this thread to be clean of the bull#$&t.

Sunshine - we would love the GT-R badge!

And Justin's R33 4-door has a towbar, as do a number of other 'support' vehicles :P

But has a weight limit of 850kg :P

And of course may not be around much longer, though the way it's going I will have it forever...

I hadn't heard anything about this...sounds cool.

Anyone got pics of the WRX trailer?

Here you go.....

Not too exciting (ie no rice) but it holds loads of stuff. Side and back access make it really easy to get stuff in and out (doors flip up and are on gas struts).

It may have a lot of subaru advertising on it, but that all brings in cash to keep the cost of the trailer down.

I have an old BBQ which has 3 burners. It has a hot plate and a grill on top. I put the 3 new burners on it about 18 months ago. It is on a wooden trolley thing. Any use as we are looking to upgrade?

if i had a toughening plant, then i could supply that. but we always get it from other joints.

although i do like the idea of a big sticker saying "SAU BBQ! EAT IT OR GTFO!" on the guards or something

do perspex ya mcmoron :)

doxxeh im sure ur right up with ya perspex

Here you go.....

Thats looks awesome - do you have a link to other pics? Or even a thread about it showing inside, costs and things please?

This is something ive been thinking about doing up here

Cheers :(

I would seriously consider starting from scratch.

Building a trailer using RHS and a new axle assembly would be a better way of doing it.

The few lengths of RHS aren't going to cost alot.

The new cast hitch is about $75

Front wheel to allow it to be removed from the car and be free standing is essential.

Rear cut of an R33 is a tops idea.

The trailer would have to be registered then as an R33 is a BIG FAT WHALE and would be wide.

A new axle with whatever stud pattern you want is only a few hundred dollars, then you don't have to worry about shitty old bearings and having to buy new axles or anything.

Anywho, just my thoughts, but a new build would be much more advantageous.

BASS OUT

    • ..could be worse... but out here, renting private affords some luxuries ...we've even been told the Sept dateline isn't critical, and I'd rather move stuff in the cool of winter, than slogging it out in the heat. Recall we were talking about the million dollar view this place has?...that's what he got for it... (won't be so nice when the quarry happens at the back in the future...lol..)... ...cool, I'll stick the wiper motor in a wee box...umm.... the pinny is GLX trim ~ I think that's about as close as it gets to Silo spec when it comes to the S2 pinny...ie; electric mirrors etc etc...dunno about the trip computer/wiring...I do electronics repair, I'd be willing to take a look at it for you. As you saw, all the dash is there in that car..and thinking about it, it'd be easier to pull the whole center section out, rather than just the ashtray and rails, but your call...
    • The "sacrifice of low end" is now basically irrelevant in 2025. Turbo/ecu/fabrication/and other tech advancements gives a vast array of options to mitigated any of it. My setup now is a fantastic example of this. 300whp / 20psi @ 3500rpm from a 600hp turbo setup on a notoriety low reading Dyno Dynamics roller dyno, is almost unmatched on all of SAU and other forums. The only other turbo i've seen that can achieve this is a BW EFR + twin scroll / twin gates etc etc etc... ps. tuned by Matty Spry at P.I.T.S as far as getting to the 600 figure, while enlarging your itb's alone probably won't get you there, as Sucram has stated above, it will certainly help. Just do it Predator1 my brother hahaha 🙂
    • I use Taaarks/efi solutions ones. Years, and no issues.
    • At the Botany heavy vehicle inspection centre. At the time there were only 2 locations that did IM240 testing for free, the other location was at Penrith. I did a quick google, seems like the Botany and Penrith inspection centre is closed now though About an hour of my time.  At the time you could. They are closed now   No it was Government run, the site was attached to the RTA from memory. The guys running it at the time were awesome, if you didn't pass the test, they handed you the results and said make changes to your car/tune and have another go later. You drove in registered, failed, and drove out registered.   Obviously though if you were defected, sent there, failed. You remained unregistered.  From my 5 minutes of research (have a look at the date on my test results) looks like things have changed. So, I can't see any way to get this test done for free now Seems like you'll need to call around the engineering places doing the Vehicle Safety Compliance Certification Scheme or call around workshops with a dyno and try and get a RG240 test. No idea how expensive that is though or how easy it is to find a place offering it.  Bit depressing learning about this now. The first car I had engineered in NSW cost me about $250 all up.... So kids these days can't buy houses, looks like getting your car legal and engineered in NSW is another thing on the list of things they can't afford. Great. 
    • That makes sense. Thanks!
