side intrusion bars

[RiverSide]

My compliance officer does not remove the FRONT doors of cefiros, however the rears are removed as it is easier to fit the bars that way.

As far as cost for paperwork etc is concerned that will vary from state to state, as some will require full written reports etc.

That the.. $100-150 a door thats nice.

Guys

Re side intrusion bars - give ISASO (on the web) a call, I got my bars for my R32 GTR from them and with freight to canberra it cost me $280.  It is a very easy job to fit them your self, but you will need some basic tools and a welder.  

It is very easy to do - I did both my doors in about 3 1/2 - 4 hours (having no idea where to start!!)  do a search on 15 yr old compliance (or something like that) and you will find a detailed thread I made.

enjoy.

do they mount inside near the door catch? so u didn't need to paint the door skin? what about the inside of the doors, btw mig or spot weld?

You my friend are a complete tool.

c'mon mate, ur not even going to give a reason why i'm a tool?

sorry kill HSV

i think that you need to read up on some import stuff

for you to suggest that STAGEA man is in the wrong forum proves your lack of knowledge, seeing as a stagea is basically a skyline station wagon.

Also dont **** with Side intrusion bars, because not everyone gets killed if you are t boned. Just pay the money and stop complaining.

actually yes i did know they were on the same platform otherwise this wouldn't be possible

(Without heaps of work), they may be on the same platform but their chalk and cheese, family wagon vs. performance car.

i'm pretty sure all the stageas come as auto, so not intended as a sports car.

how can u say that not everyone gets killed? facts?

Bzzt. Select models came with manual.

LW.

i also hear that a select number come with the RB26DETT engine in them, that is in no way a family wagon.

and if side intrusion bars save oner person there worthwhile. that 1 person may be you or someone you care for.

if you cannot afford 200-300 for 2 bars i sugest you sell your car now as sports cars arnt a cheap toy.

Hrmm. I'm with some people that has already replied.. You my friend need to get your facts straight. Stagea also comes in manual (expensive tho) and also there are the 260rs versions which are RB26DETT in the wagon (which to my knowledge only comes in manual). I definitely would not call a 260rs a family wagon...

I got mine done professionally for $100 a door, engineered no hassle.

Very competitive price.

[PHATR32]

id also prefer to get the bars installed properly, if you install it you could really stuff up.

Yeah these bars sound great until you,ve seen a passenger seat sliced nearly in two horizontally by the u beaut side intrusion bar after a side impact. I,m sure that would,ve saved the passenger.......................... SUFFERING!

[LastTemptation]

hey guys do r33s come wit intrusion bars? im not sure how they went about complying mine. It says it complies with the 1989 motor vehicle act..? the car is a 93 model... would it have one?

[MerlinTheHapyPig]

well, most '80s and earlier model cars released in australia didnt' have side intrusion bars in the doors. My mums ford laser doesn't, my GSR Cordia doesn't - it's a safety thing obviously, but i can understand why some people might want to skimp on them.

while on the topic of side intrusion bars, do 4 door cars such as the 4dr R32 skyline that i have coming over - do the rear doors need them aswell as the fronts?

[RiverSide]

Yes Merlin........all doors are required to be fitted with bars.

[LastTemptation]

if i take off the door trim is it easy to spot the intrusion bars?

[PHATR32]

who the hellinstalled the bar? was it welded in or just riveted?

umm funny you should say that, in my experience side intrusion bars do a pretty good job of keeping another car out of the passenger seat

[RiverSide]

Last temptation..........If you remove the door trim and remove the plastic liner......you should be able to spot a large rectangular bar running horizontally across your door.

Alternatively, you may be able to see rivets on the door near the latch........they often rivet them in to ensure it stays still whilst welding.
