hey guys

My first post so big hello to all other ceffie owners-just imported an SR cefiro and am trying to comply it- need a few pointers on getting parts for this thing

I had a 7 point rollcage and had to remove the front- the sunvisors were removed and i will need them for complience-which ones will fit-i have tried 180sx ones but they were WAY to big- they also seem to have a switch under them??

Also wondering if anyone in sydney had a standard exhaust laying around that i could lend for a day?

Have more bits and pieces i have to go through also

thanks guys

Yeah daniel my cage is differnt to youre one- i have the 7 point safety 21 cage and the front is different

I HAD to remove the front to register it -and can only keep the rear in if i remove the rear seats and register it as a 2 seater- pain in the ass

Im sure you guys get it a bit easier up on the sunshine coast- down here in nsw we get reamed ;)

But yeah any help with a stock exhaust would be greeted with much thanks

117 db is loud ;)

cheers

I believe nissan pintara ones fit, but you don't need sunvisors for compliance, i didn't have an sun visors and i passed.

you can quieten your exhaust be getting 2 metal platet thaf fit between your front pipe and your cat and between your cat and rear pipe

make em the same size and shape as the flange but drill about 50 holes in them about 6mm.

this WILL get your car under 90 DB. mine was 118!!!! i did this and got it down to 86db to get it thru rego.

it will run like shi tho :)

dont boost it like this!

hey dori where you going for compliance?

it's been 5 months since mine came in the country and im sick of looking in the garage...that sydney compliance center in orange grove told me $1450 on the phone, and when i went in to ask, he said minimum $1650. i think envy imports do then for about $1450 or $1500...but is there anywhere else that complies these cars apart from japlink?

ok my engineer will not sign off until i get sunvisors- tried skyline (r31, r33), 180sx, ae86 and pintara ones

Anyone got any ideas what will fit??? they seem to be rounded and pretty uncommon

Just want to get it on the road-will be heading to pick and payless tomorrow

cheers

      Clutch done also about a year ago got a DCS HD Single Plate. Basically done everything but touch the engine 🤣 But will definitely get a fuel pump and ECU, then start saving 🫡

      Fuel pump and clutch and ecu that’ll get you to about 230 or so kw, after that the sky’s the limit and the budget blows out faster then you can blink

      Should add all mods on the car are done in my ownership. The car was a 1 owner in Japan and I'm first owner in Aus.

      Thanks GTSBoy. Did BC's so not Japanese coilovers. I've already done all the other points you mentioned besides the seat, I like the factory seats and want to keep original look. Done all the fluids and comp tests etc and all consistent and clean. Well and truly used to the power and car as I've been driving it for a few years as it is now. Contemplating next steps mainly. Preference to remain twins too. @Murray_Calavera Paying for labour.

      Hmm. I don't think it is possible. As soon as you start, you will be on the hook for all the money. $5-10k is enough to make it fragile. Here's the list of things you need to do to make it nice, and driveable. If Japanese coilovers, get them measured and tested, then decide if you're keeping them or replacing them. If low rate springs, then consider big ARBs. If high rate springs, then probably leave stock ARBs. Either way, ad decent end links. Replace and/or upgrade all suspension bushes. That's LCAs front and rear, UCAs & traction arms at rear, caster rods at front. I highly recommend GKTech FUCAs, although the step to spherical joints is a step too far for some people. Rebuild brakes front and rear. This means making sure the calipers are healthy, discs are up to thickness, hoses are replaced with braided. Add good pads and fluid. Investigate wheel bearings all the way around, tie rod ends all the way around, upright bearings at the front, balljoints everywhere. Any of these that are still original are likely to be a bit wibbly nowadays. Bride or Recaro driver's seat, with fairly deep sides. Nice tyres. Street performance wheel alignment. Or track focused, if you're not going to use it on the road. Fluids everywhere if not known to be fresh. Now, learn to drive the car as hard as it will go, before trying to add any power. Save up big $$. $5k is the minimum cost for putting a decent ECU into it. A big single, with manifold, new exhaust, injectors, fuel system upgrade, ignition upgrade, triggering upgrade, etc, is >>$10k. None of that (except the ECU) is a good idea on an old RB. You really should put head studs in it, investigate engine health (compression and leak down, real oil pressure at revs, coolant condition, etc) before even considering adding power. There's nothing sadder than the "I added boost then it shat the bed" thread.
