You can get them passed by CAMS for a cage built by anyone, but in doing so, you do need to have all of the correct material purchased etc. It's not just any old tube that will do.

They also need to be built to the correct design.

It can be built yourself and certified by CAMS that's no problem.

Expect to be asked for an invoice for the material you used as proof and possibly an MDS (material data sheet) if you get a strict scruitener to inspect it.

They will check for 360 degree welding, base plate dimensions and fixings, bend radius' and intersection locations.

As well as shedule compliance and category requirements.

All the regulations are in the online cams manual under shedule J.

Be warned though if it's not 100% chances are it won't get approved and the expense to cut it out and do it properly

is alot more than paying someone to do it right the first time around.

It's not hard if your competent with a welder and have access to the right equipement

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      Interesting. I still think they are the result of impact damage somewhere along the line, but clearly lightning has stuck thrice! I've still got the original ones on my race car and they have had some hard work.

      Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.

      Coolant leak?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
