It must be something recent because there are lots of R32's without it that must have been complianced before they changed the regulations. It sucks that you have to install the side indicators on the panel because there are plenty of factory cars that were sold in Australia without them, look at the 89 corolla or magna for example. What I don't get is that the front assembly light is alredy designed with a lump on the corner acting as the side idicator. It goes the same with the corolla and magna, the main front indicator assembly has a litlly lump in the corner of it, I guess that was a design trend back in 1989.

thats what i thought because it was so far around i didnt think it would need it.

anyone with pics would be cool though :cheers:

i cant recall ever seeing a r32 with side indicators, so im hoping and praying (and im not a religious man) that i dont need them ;)

two images of mine, without and with.

i had to have mine added for compliance over 2 years ago, the guy said that was the worst part about compliancing them because he had to cut into the panels :P

in the next few months ill be getting panels for it without the indicators.. nice and clean.

the ones that dont have them are personal imports. maybe 15yr cars too, i dont know. but all others need them.

i think smaller are better. mine arent that bad but would prefer without. i think the key is that they line up with the GT badge.

mine are factory 32 GTR repeaters, and line up with the GT badge :(

Got my brother's 32 complianced a month ago, and was told side indicators weren't required anymore. Glad too because I didn't want them cutting into the side of the car.

Same deal with dash dimmer too, no longer a requirement.

    • 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
