according to the SEVS list you can comply 01/1989 to 06/1992 and 06/1991 to 1994 models.

however most RAWS have used Series 2 (post august 1991) R32's in their evidence package, so their compliance procedures require you to have series 2 parts in your car, like for example the S2 doors have factory side intrusion bars. You might find that a compliancer is willing to comply a S1 R32 GTR as long as you can provide the necessary S2 parts to comply it.

yep, you will find pretty much anyone is willing to comply an 89 model GTR for you as long as you can either supply or are willing to buy late model doors with factory intrusion bars (cannot use aftermarket bars).

Actually if you call around you will find more than one workshop that has evidence which allows them to fit aftermarket side intrusion bars to the early model R32's ... don't go paying huge $$ for series 2 doors and fiiting/painting when you can have bars fitted to your doors for around $250 each side (around $500 all up), but either way make sure you use a good workshop with a good reputation not just a fancy glossy website!

No workshop can use aftermarket intrusion bars for compliance, must be factory fitted. [our engineer's tried]

You have two options, buy a set of doors with factory side intrusion bars (obviously off a later model r32),

or borrow some for compliance and get aftermarket side intrusion bars fitted for roadworthy.

We have some doors we can lend you for compliance, no problem.

We can also do the aftermarket ones for $500 (whole set, $250 per side)

Compliance costs $2500.

cheers,

david @ carizma

thanks for the replys i will look more into it the few i have asked wont do it

    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on.
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...

    • Well, yeah, the RB26 is definitely that far off the mark. From a pure technology point of view it is closer to the engines of the 60s than it is to the engines of the last 10 years. There is absolutely nothing special about an RB26 that wasn't present in engines going all the way back to the 60s, except probably the four valve head. The bottom end is just bog standard Japanese stuff. The head is nothing special. Celicas in the 70s were the same thing, in 4cyl 2 valve form. The ITBs are nothing special when you consider that the same Celicas had twin Solexes on them, and so had throttle plates in the exact same place. There's no variable valve timing, no variable inlet manifold, which even other RBs had either before the 26 came out or shortly afterward. The ECU is pretty rude and crude. The only things it has going for it are that the physical structure was pretty bloody tough for a mass produced engine, the twin-turbos and ITBs made for a bit of uniqueness against the competition (and even Toyota were ahead on the twin turbs thing, weren't they?) and the electronic controls and measuring devices (ie, AFMs, CAS, etc) were good enough to make it run well. Oh, and it sounds better than almost anything else, ever. The VR38 is absolutely halfway between the RB generation and the current generation, so it definitely has a massive increase in the sophistication of the electronics, allowing for a lot more dynamic optimisation of mapping. Then there's things like metal treatments and other coatings on things, adoption of variable cam stuff, and a bunch of other little improvements that mean it has to be a better thing than the RB26. But I otherwise agree with you that it is approximately the same thing as a 26. But, skip forward another 10 years from that engine and then the things that I mentioned in previous post come out to play. High compression, massively sophisticated computers, direct injection, clever measuring sensors, etc etc. They are the real difference between trying to make big power with a 26 and trying to make big power with a S/B50/54 (or whatever the preferred BMW engine of the week is).
