g'day all,

i just took the door trim off my 1994 r32 GTR to fit some sound deadening, and i can't see any side intrusion bars in there.

i know it was complied in nsw, but how should i find out who did it?

hmmm...i wonder what legs i have to stand on...what should i do?

Cheers,

M..

well....the company that complied it is named on the compliance plate under the bonnet.

So if you do want to do something about it contact them and see what they say. And if you still want to do more and they won't co-operate take it up with DOTARS.

Are you realy shure that theres nothing in there? Because the late 32GTR's came factory fited with side intrusion bars. It looks like a fairly puny little thing that runs along the inside of the doors. Ive got one in my passenger door in my 32 GTR

get pics up and make sure that you definately dont have them, after that, dont bother with the workshop, go straight to dotars and get em shut the f*ck down. if they are taking shortcuts when it comes to your safety, f*ck em!

hi all,

thanks for all the good replies, i really appreciate it.

a) i can't be absolutely sure that there is no bar in the door - if they're small i may have missed it

b) i haven't checked the driver's side, this will help me compare them

c) i've contacted DOTARS by email, no reply as yet

d) obviously if the door has no bar fitted, i'll get them put in.

it's an interesting problem - there's a moral hazard to not telling dotars, and a moral hazard to telling them...hmmm....

cant get them put in supposedly unless the compliance shop can source Raw's compliant ones

which mine couldnt :)

suplier is in Queensland supposedly and hadnt made any yet

there right up the top not like the aftermarket ones they put in and are hard up against the outer door skin

u can no longer put aftermark intrusion bars in for RAWS vehicles they must be OEM fitted trusion bars and doors. as for trying to contact DOTARS its kinda pointless the workshop will just say they were there wen we complied it..

Who told you this? This is the opposite of what I've heard and seen recently.

This is the same as what happened to my car, as they weren't allowed to just add intrusion bars so i had to get some white doors with OEM bars fitted and paint them black

hi guys,

ok, here's a photo looking up towards the top of the door, on the inside:

should there be anything there? i don't know if there's something behind that bulging but of metal in the middle of the picture.

btw i thought the same thing as razor - that you can use oem parts for these units?

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
