Does anyone know FOR SURE (not "I think") if the pits will pass a full cage that doesn't hinder your legs while getting out of the car, but does go through the dash?

Also has anyone here actually registered a car with a half cage as a 2 seater? Do they require the rear seats to be in or out?

Because they don't want to give a consistant answer. I've been told that they don't do full cages, that they will only do a 2 seater with a half cage if the rear seats aren't fitted, and they don't do a 2 seater with a half cage if the rear seats aren't fitted.

3 different people, 3 different answers.

page 33 will tell u everythin u need to know. That is the national DOTARs regulations hand book so as long as u build to them guide lines u will b fine and can get half cage permitted. Full cage is strictly NO but u r allowed to have mounts to bolt in front bars for off road/ track use

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
