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.

    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
    • Don't do what I did, use a 300000km old housing with billet gears. The old pump probably was clearanced with saw dust, Edward Lee's special engine treatment sauce and a good odo wind back. I had oil pressure issues, then replaces pump with new housing, new billet gears and 2x track day later binned a motor due to other oil related issues due to a previous engine builder. Long story short, buy a M2 or 3 or 4 N55/S55/S58 and enjoy life.
    • Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".
    • Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.
