Long time no type :down: I think it's time i got my car back on the road after 10 months off the road. Can anyone help me out on the where abouts to get child restraints put in the rear? It needs to go through regency and that's the only thing amongst quite a few that i think im going to have trouble with. Also, I need a set of standard rear shocks, mine have been sitting around and the seals are shot. Would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

I miss it :blink:

Hey mate.

Do u need all the child restrant bolts and covers? Pretty sure I got them. I would drill 3holes. One under each speaker and one in the middle with a nut on the end. They don't really look into them just make sure they are there and don't move.

This is a real long shot, not sure if they'll fit, but I have some Teins for r32 gtr sitting in my shed doing nothing, you're welcome to borrow them if they fit your 33.. (dont know since rear suspension differs between gts-t r32s and the gts4/gtr...)

Ryan ring up that import compliance place that used to be next to Japanese import spares, they installed mine for regency

the nuts bolts n brackets cost them stuff all but its the labour that cost the most, took him about 1 1/2 hours to fit and cost me about $130

im sure someone on here no's the name

Hell yeah! Where you disappear to? Welcome back.

I have nothing to assist you, but best of luck. Would love to see the 33 back on the road.

:(

Thanks Mate

Mitch i think would know the name he lives at JIS

welcome back Ryan

did it get defected? why you have to go over regency?

Thanks Steve. It got defected on a quiet Sunday morning driving to the servo to wash it about 10 months ago. Got defected for Track and too low. I didn't care too much. First time in 4 years it'd been defected. I put it in my workshop at work and totally forgot i owned it but it's collected enough dust now and needs to have it's cherry popped once again :O.

he needs eye shape ends so no gtr or r34 gtt stuff. NA r34, r33, s15 have eye shape ends.

s15 and r33 are interchangeable?

if so, youre more than welcome to use the struts i got sitting in the shed.

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
