The fact he had an airbag wheel as standard and he removed it is reason enough

bingo.

however, im tempted to the same, just so i can solid mount mt seat to the floor and drop myself 2 or 3 inches, and having a removable wheel is really the only way to do that and still be able to get in and out.

*points to trader rating*

and sled knows where i live haha

-D

Its fine man I don't have a problem :ermm: You got enough of a rep round here for me to trust that you wont fark off to Iraq and go into hiding just for a set of Tien struts :)

this is true , otherwise youve gotta crawl through an area like in the movie , entrapment

writeoff can attest that when i was going to moonta last year, we'd hit a dip and my entire exhaust would bottom out on the tarmac and shoot a tonne of sparks, so much so that it ripped apart one of the welds on my muffler

True but the exhaust system wasn't fitted correctly back then and your car was fully loaded with food, drinks, fishing equipment and ~260kgs of man-flesh.

Speed humps just need to be taken slowly and at an angle. Same with driveways.

Personally I think your Bilsteins are fine and you could save your $ but I haven't driven the car in a long time and never did as a daily.

Non Airbag wheel. Nardi wheel. He said if i had a momo or Isotta i would be fine, even tho they have no air bag :ermm:

Dion, will u be down towards the city any day soon? would be great if i could borrow the light.

Should only take a couple of nights after work to finish it all.

Thanks.

i suspect in the 2 years that theyve worn - the exhaust was fitted properly - this was back when I still had the 3.5" kakimoto that was on it when i bought it off you. because of that, i switched to a twin pipe junbl sidebyside cannon setup, which wasnt fitting correctly on the trip to another place, but I dont think you were there for that - inspite of the junbl's not being mounted correctly, they still scraped less than that kakimoto (the muffler was massive)... and even tho theyre now mounted correctly, I still get scrapage around the side street speed humps... thats even slowing down to 10kph...

ill see what waynes teins are like and if I have to, start saving up for nismos that scandy suggested ... however I suspect because the suspension is nismo, it'll cost me 2 kidneys to afford..

Shit. I have a nardi too. But then again R32 GTRs never had air bags... maybe that means I'd get away with it

ive got a nardi aswell , and my car didnt come out with an airbag but i think its too small or something

lol, yup, and i dont have a good enough ass to get away with doing that. :)

still wouldnt be legal.

Nope, don't think Nardi's have ADR approval

bingo. even if your car didnt have an airbag wheel as standard, the only aftermarkets wheels you can legally fit are from momo and isotta because theyre the only brands that have got adr approval.

Well I guess I'll be keeping this stock steering wheel handy hah

I will PM you when I know what my plans are tomorrow morning. I'm thinking of heading into town tomorrow evening. :ermm:

My R32 has stuff about SRS Airbag written all over the sunvisor, I'm waiting for the day a cop gives me a hard time about removing an airbag wheel.

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues 
    • Yes I as well would like to find out where I could get some of the seat material with the red or blue small squares in it
