Hey guys. I'm importing a R32 GTR 90 model under SEVS. Now my compliance workshop is telling me I can't just simply instal intrusion bars into the doors. They tell me I or they will have to find me second hand doors with FACTORY intrusion bars instaled in them and anyone else that tells me different is full of shit.

Many say it is quite possible to have the bars instaled and passed. Is there a phone number for SEVS? or the people that actually check the vehicle over that I can call and find out for sure? So I can call the compliance workshop and tell them they are full of it and to talk to these guys...

Any help? THANKS!:(

As I also posted in NS as well their is now available approved After Market Side Intrusion Bars for the R32 GTR and GTS-t 2 door as I have ordered them and I have the evidence in my possession so I know they are out their, these are ADR approved and tested according to ADR 29 requirements for DOTRS, the bars are available for RAWS to use and they are available from one place and one place only.

If the workshop does not want use the Side Intrusion Bars that is their choice, if the workshop does not want to deal with the manufacturer of the Side Intrusion Bars and use their evidence that is their choice but as a customer you should be able to be supplied them and if not go to another workshop, this is another thing people are not told till the last minute.

People are making comments on many forums on things they don't understand or assume and all it is doing is confusing people so for RAWS this link to the ADR's is what you need to read so you know what the rulings are but if you do it will confuse you even more.

      Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.

      From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)

      In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird

      Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller

      So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
