I just rang PVP and they want $1580 to comply my car :S Is it just me or is that expensive? Any other places people could recomend so I can compare prices?

Rang the guy at import spares and he recomended PVP, I would definatly go with PVP but its so expensive, I was expecting $1300 max. Maybe if I could get another quote PVP would try to match it?

I had all three of my cars complied by Joanne, Neil, Craig and the rest of the crew at Best Enterprises. I'd recommend them. Heaps of contact, reasonable prices, professional job. Need I say more.

The cost depends on the mods u have as well - some will need to be removed and refitted for the Regency run.

Also the fact that you have a 4 door means u will need an extra set of side intrusion bars for the rear?

Most ppl suggest PVP and Best Enterprises. Ring both for a quote and see how u go. If u can do arrange it, take it to them so they can give u a better idea.

I got home to late to ring Best Enterprises, ill try to get hold of them tomorrow or Saturday. I was just wondering does Best Enterprises take your car through regency for you because I know PVP does.

The thing is even if alot of mods have to be removed from my car I definatly aint paying $1580 and then even more for the mods to be removed.

How much does it cost for regency to have a look at your car? Maybe thats where the extra $300 is comming onto the PVP price, unless Best Enterprises takes your car through and only charges $1200?

ring this dude, his names tom 0438843693,hes a good bloke and he'll do it cheep. he can also supply intrution bars cheeper than every where elce,he works from home. i used best enterprises for a silvia that i had,expencive but they do the job.doin it ur self is another very cheep way of doin it, just get some one to weld the bar's in for ya and all the rests childs play,thats what ill be doin from now on.

Best enterprise do it and they charge $1400

PVP.

I'm doing my own compliance, and the guy there sold me all the stuff I need to do it myself.

they do the full job including taking it through regency for about $1100.

after getting half way through a DIY compliance, I recon its worth every cent.

how much is the "compliance kit" cost u?

cheers

This is what I spent.....

$75 Child restraints ($25 ea)

$18 Fuel restrictor

$220 intrusion bars

$10 stickers (tyre placard etc)

$7 VIN

$80 led brake light

$200 engineering report.

Plus a heap of work. the door glass needs to come out and the doors need to come off to get the intrusion bars in neatly.

plus I've done new brake discs and upper control arm bushes....

Best Enterprizes do charge you to take gear off to get through Regency. All the stuff off my grey GTR amounted to over $600. It also cost that amount again to get everything refitted (but not by Best Ent). They take the car through Regency and charge an hours labour $66, but this would be included in your original quote from them.

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
