I also spoke to Raj about compliance for my BNR32. Very helpful. He faxed me the entire v10 ADR compliance document so I could perform the easy stuff myself and leave the rest to him. :)

Going thru it, i've come across the following:

adr 7/00 hydraulic brake hoses - requests for SAE/FMVSS/DOT compliance. My car came with braided stainless steel lines. Will these need to be replaced?? hope not. :P

cheers

Hi, I just bought an uncomplied cefiro off a mate and Im getting it ready for compliancing in south Australia.

It has:

Side Intrusion Bars (do I need an engineers report?)

Child restraints

Fuel filler neck and sticker.

I need a tyre placard? (anyone got one for a cefiro?)

I need seatbelts (what seatbelts should I use for a cefiro?)

will coil overs pass regency or should I try and find some standard struts?

anything else Ill need?

in sydney you pay 1200(100 more if you want the blue slip) for a shop to do the same thing(about the same price you payed for all the things but you did them)

advantage i think you would get is you might use better grade oils

the main advantage to me would be that the car is with and u know exactly whats been done

Does anyone know what year Side intrusion bars came standard in all cars by law??

Curious if a 1991 gtr would already have them? I thought they came in in a standard in 1990 or somthing

Also the best way to find and engineer to do the sign off is to just call dotars yeah?

Tryin to find workshops that would do S I bars in rockhampton is gona be HELL or impossible

Ahh thanks for that lads ^_^.. I knew it was somthing like that.. Another Q tho why would anyone bother welding them in when they can be riveted does it look just as strong? im almost sure all this has been brought up before so sorry

Depends on the engineer that signs em off. One of the ones we use prefers to have them welded in on both sides, and won't sign off on the car otherwise. Another gets em down from QLD, bolts/rivets em in and signs it off, although he won't sign off on it unless it was installed by him.

hi

I complied my gtr last year in nsw

used a u shape bolt in bracket at the front so the door was not removed and L shaped bracket at the back with countersunk 5mm stainless screws that are hidden under the door rubber.

have to remove the storm mold and the window and window regulator

no welding on the car 2x 8mm holes drilled behind the front of the door trim and 2x 5mm holes drilled under the door rubber at the rear.

the bars are 25x50 rhs

the full length bar can be manouvered in through the top slot of the door after the window has been removed because the end brackets bolt on

it took me a week to do both sides including lots of time measuring and checking for glass clearance.

no, what you need is compliance and the CIN that you get from the complier. apart from that you need to check state requirements. in NSW it's a blue slip inspection. and 'engineering certificate' is a pretty general term and covers a lot of things. they are usually done to certify non-standard vehicle modifications though.

i live in qld and i just recently bought an 89 nissan infinity q45 uncomplied. it has been in australia since december 2004. im wanting to do an engine conversion in it and do away with the vh45 as its seized up. i wont be putting another vh45 in. i know the engine needs to be running for compliance. however does it need to be the standard one? also im looking at upgrading brakes/ suspension and putting in a rollcage. am i able to do all the modifications including the engine conversion then just see an engineer once? also can someone point me in the direction of everything thats needed to be done in qld for compliance purposes. thanks Dale

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
