R32GOJIRA Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Now i know that the center locks arent, but would the double wishbone setup be "street legal" in a sense if you could get it engineered?

Risking Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 Yeah 100% it an be engineered. Suspension modifications can be engineered as long as they are designed and fabricated to a standard the engineer is happy with. I've only done 1 GTR that's been engineered we made some minor changes to satisfy the engineer.

Risking Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Troy I do still do those hicas rear ends, the design has changed slightly to make them easier to fabricate but essentially the same components. Its been a while as weve been flooded with work before the Wakefield 300 and the begining of the motorsport year begins.

Risking Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 Last weekend we competed in the Wakefield 300 endurance race along side PIstore in an S15 that we built and prepared for production car racing. The event went well before the poor little factory SR20 threw a rocker arm and ran on 3 cylinders 94 laps into the race. Great event we will certainly return next year for another crack at it.

cowdy Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) hey brad i was just wondering if you would be able to make a harness bar for a r33 gtst like the photo i uploaded Edited March 17, 2013 by cowdy Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/385051-pro-fabrications-pfre-fabrication/page/19/#findComment-6786198 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risking Posted March 17, 2013 Author Share Posted March 17, 2013 I can fabricate harness bars like that yes but I'm not a fan of those designs coming from the upper seat belt bolts Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/385051-pro-fabrications-pfre-fabrication/page/19/#findComment-6786255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowdy Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 What would you suggest? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/385051-pro-fabrications-pfre-fabrication/page/19/#findComment-6786338 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risking Posted March 17, 2013 Author Share Posted March 17, 2013 The way I rather do them is from the lower rear seat belt mounts It's a case of remove the rear seat, bolt the harness bar down and do the track day. Remove harness bar seat back in and back to normal. Problem is those upper seat belt mounted ones create a dangerous lever when you pull on the belts. They swing downwards in an arc allowing the belts to loosen. The idea of those bars going down is to try and prevent that rotation. They just bend. I don't have any photos of mine but they pull directly against the bolt holes with no rotating forces Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/385051-pro-fabrications-pfre-fabrication/page/19/#findComment-6786536 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowdy Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I can see where you are coming from with that. How much would it be for the harness bar with both the back seat and top bolt mounts. I like things to be secured properly when they are in so the more points I can mount it to the better.

Risking Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 I wouldnt mount a harness bar from the rear seat and upper front bolts, its way to over engineered for how simple a harness bar can be. For an R33 a harness bar done from 4130 chromolly tube ready for you to remove the back seat and bolt in they are sold for $330inc gst.

Roy Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 So about ready to send you some drawings and pull the trigger on a HICAS delete kit got an R33 GTR rear end. How busy are you and how early do I have to get in to get some alloy engine bay bits fab'd up and the rear HICAS kit?

Risking Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 Always up for some alloy engine bay work and subframe mods. We are expecting our 1st baby to arrive early April so I haven't booked much in for next month which has made it easy to be picky with work. Let me know when you want to get it done and ill accommodate it.
