I've been trying to find a bolt in cage to suit my 33 GTR. I'm wondering if anyone distributes them in Melbourne. I would prefur to buy in melb just in case there are any fitment issues.

Does anyone know of cusco distributers etc that could source a cage?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Don't know about Melbourne, but there is bond roll bars in Sydney that make kits up either bolt or weld in.

Thanks. I might give meridian a call.

I'd prefer to stick to a bolt in for reasons of resale value. Also easier to remove if I get hassled by the cops. I only wan't it for the track, but I guess an engineering certificate will be ineviatable.

Can you recommend some workshops fit for the job? SE suburbs.

Brown Davis and Merridian are both E or SE arent they? And both should know how to make em legal and be able to point you in the direction of someone for a cert... i think a ADR legal 6point cage for my datto was gonna be 2k or so, was a while ago tho

i thought that roll cages are legal? as long as they bo not block the doors. and do not have the bar affecting the front and rear windscreen. >_< thats wad was said on the vic roads site.

I have a half cage in my R32. It was done by Brown Davis in bayswater for about 1k.

It can be removed by just taking the front seats out. They give you all the paperwork for CAMS and ADR stuff. The catch is that you need to register it as a 2 seater for it to be road legal. Not hard to do but if you re-register it as a 4 or 5 seater after that then it has to have an engineers cert even if you only put the stock belts etc back in.

I've left mine as is for now though.

I wouldn't get a jap built cage if I were you. Technically they can't pass CAMS scrutineering, due to the bars being too thin, aswell as too many bends.

My cage was built by Brown Davis, and I am very happy with it.

Any pics Russ, similar to mine?

Agreed re: Jap cages - none of them meet any AUS requirements.

If they don't - you gotta wonder why... if its a safety issue then stands to reason to pick a AUS made one to AUS specs (which are tighter than japs)

Too true, but it's funny that a Cusco Safety 21 is not CAMS approved but it is ANDRA approved.

Brown Davis did my cage for the 34, can't fault it.

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      By PotatoCake · Posted

      Yeh... literally every time i jump on a forum, see an instagram post or see an engine bay at a car show, i get an idea and add it to my 'to do' list. So what started off as, hey can u just make a couple of intake hard pipes because my dumbass bought the wrong apexi kit, blew out into a 2 week job including braided brake lines & custom bash kit for the front lip haha.  Getting Luke from A4E engineering to make a full custom exhaust with a controllable aes dump valve so i can actually switch between quiet and loud, because right now its just loud all day every day. Then after that go and get the tune redone flex e85 & 98 as i get bugger all milage from e85, makes going for longer drivers difficult

      Car looks clean as. You ended up getting quite a bit done 😂  So what's the plan for the exhaust?

      Rb25det vs Rb25de rods and crank are same?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The only Neo rods that were any different to any other RB25 rods were the DET ones, and they were the same as RB26. Here is a Neo DET rod. O5U part number visible. Here is a post in a thread here on SAU with evidence from someone who has done this before. There are photos in the thread of normal RB25 rods.

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Sure, but why assume that will be the case forever? And why assume you'll be able to do an oil change to swap back to a stock drain bolt before that happens? And does it even matter when I change the oil at fairly short intervals? Life can be funny sometimes and unexpected things can happen. Like breaking a collarbone so you can't do any work on your car for a few months but the oil change is due so you have to take it to somewhere and hope they don't do something stupid like stacking the new drain plug washer on top of the old one.
