Process = modifying the car to Australian Design Rules (ADR) supposedly. Things like side intrusion bars (if not standard), new fuel filler, dot standard tyres etc.

Its done so cars like skylines that are unbelievably unsafe (cough, cough) can be made to comply with ADR and thus be safe (cough), according to the pen pushers. Eg. the compliance workshop was unable to give me my space saver spare wheel cos sum pen push said that they are not safe??? Hope I don't get a flat.

R33 cost me $3850 + $700 tyres done on the Gold Coast a couple of mths ago.

I was quoted approx $4500..which includes the tyres..so it's pretty much the same as zymotic..used to be a lot cheaper but SEVS has made it pretty hard (and expensive) for workshops to gain accreditation.
