Hi guys,

Interested in getting a tow bar fitted to the Stagea for carting around my race bike and go-kart to the track. Just rang Allin Towbars, but their man to do it will be on leave until 1 March 2010 :) They sounded very reluctant to touch an import also. When I confirmed it was an import it was all "Yeah, well umm ..."

Wondering who else in Adelaide is a reputable shop to do this? I won't touch Southern Tow Bars, due to a bad history with them.

Chad, if you're reading this, where did you get yours done?

:P

Trusted them twice ... learnt my lesson twice. Sorry.

I'll be giving Salisbury Towbars a go.

So how is it????

Awesome. $327 for a towbar rated to 1500kg ... as I only need it for towing my bikes to the track. Did a great job around my exhaust and rear bumper too. Very neat.

:cool:

I might have to chase them up pretty soon. Would like something heavy duty enough to be able to tow my mates Ceffy to drifts though...

I asked about that ... $490 fitted for something heavy duty like that.

:P

I might look into getting one on the Stag.

Did they have to cut the bar, or did it come up from underneath?

No cutting of the bar. Very neat job. Even accommodated for my rear bar lip. :rofl:

    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
