Hi guys,

I need to go to regency soon to comply my car with the new engine

i just need to confirm a few things before going

firstly the owner before me cut the original springs and i obviously need to purchase some new ones.. I don't have the money to splurge out on coilovers but i just want a pair which will comply/pass regency and are on the border of legal!! Does anyone know which springs would do so?

I have a sports steering wheel which is ADR approved and has a sticker on the door pillar which confirm this.. Would this still be illegal?

i also have a a nismo gear knob but ive put the shifting sticker on the cigarette tray facia..

are fold out dvd players illegal even if there hooked up to the handbrake?

thanks

borrow some stock suspension

if the steering wheel AND boss are ADR approved it should be fine

gearknob is fine as long as the shift pattern is in view

dvd player should also be fine

BTW, you wont get a car through regency with coilovers unless you have a engineers certificate to go with it

I’ve got some stock R33 suspension you could borrow if you need. One is nearly dead but the others are fine.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
