alright people are starting to ask questions about how its going to be made and where.

The trailer it self is going to be cut back to a bear A frame and then everything else will be custom only using the the old bbqs for parts.(Will have photos of the C.F.A Trailer soon )

This will all be built in dandenong south at a factory called PROVEX.

this will not be some shabby job we are going to make it the best trailer we have ever seen.

so more ideas and no more stuffing around we need this thread to be clean of the bull#$&t.

Sunshine - we would love the GT-R badge!

And Justin's R33 4-door has a towbar, as do a number of other 'support' vehicles :P

But has a weight limit of 850kg :P

And of course may not be around much longer, though the way it's going I will have it forever...

I hadn't heard anything about this...sounds cool.

Anyone got pics of the WRX trailer?

Here you go.....

Not too exciting (ie no rice) but it holds loads of stuff. Side and back access make it really easy to get stuff in and out (doors flip up and are on gas struts).

It may have a lot of subaru advertising on it, but that all brings in cash to keep the cost of the trailer down.

I have an old BBQ which has 3 burners. It has a hot plate and a grill on top. I put the 3 new burners on it about 18 months ago. It is on a wooden trolley thing. Any use as we are looking to upgrade?

if i had a toughening plant, then i could supply that. but we always get it from other joints.

although i do like the idea of a big sticker saying "SAU BBQ! EAT IT OR GTFO!" on the guards or something

do perspex ya mcmoron :)

doxxeh im sure ur right up with ya perspex

Here you go.....

Thats looks awesome - do you have a link to other pics? Or even a thread about it showing inside, costs and things please?

This is something ive been thinking about doing up here

Cheers :(

I would seriously consider starting from scratch.

Building a trailer using RHS and a new axle assembly would be a better way of doing it.

The few lengths of RHS aren't going to cost alot.

The new cast hitch is about $75

Front wheel to allow it to be removed from the car and be free standing is essential.

Rear cut of an R33 is a tops idea.

The trailer would have to be registered then as an R33 is a BIG FAT WHALE and would be wide.

A new axle with whatever stud pattern you want is only a few hundred dollars, then you don't have to worry about shitty old bearings and having to buy new axles or anything.

Anywho, just my thoughts, but a new build would be much more advantageous.

BASS OUT

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
