1989 R32 compliance info please..

[R31_GTSX]

Hey all

I'm currently waiting for my R32 to be brought over from Japan under the 15 year old import scheme.

I just wanted to know a couple of things so i can work out my budget for getting it on the road..

Does the 89 r32 come standard with intrusion bars, I've been led to believe they have got some but i'll still need an engineer's certificate to confirm they meet Aus standards.

Could someone confirm or correct this.?

Also..

I've been told that the 89 seatbelts meet the australian standards ? well i think the front ones might but i'm not sure if the rears have standard lap sash retractables...

Any ideas on this?

Everything else is pretty straight forward as i've complied a few 15 year old cars over the years ..

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

the rears are lap shash retractable but I'm not sure if that means they meet ADRs. There was a recent thread about the steps for complying a 32 gtr under 15 year old, have a look for it

No side intrusion bars in 32's. Front and rear seat belts are usually changed (not the sash but just the buckles.

Check the DIY 15yr old compliance thread.

I've answered all your questions (and a few more!) in My DIY COMPLIANCE thread. Yes, you need the intrusion bars - get them from ISASO in QLD, Belts are fine, they test them to ensure they lock when pulled.

Cheers

BTW - My 15 year old skyline ROCKS!!!

One compliancer I spoke to claimed that some R32 GT-Rs actually came with side intrusion bars. Not saying their right, just adding to the discussion

factory intrusion bars started mid 91,all 89/90 some 91 will need bars fitted.. unless doors have been replaced after 91 due to accident or something
