hey all,

As you know im in the market for a ceffy and im just getting some prices before i actually buy the car. I was wondering how much it was to get your cefiro complianced and if you did the job at home or got a compliance workshop to do it?

what was required to get it complied?

what had to be taken out?

how much it cost you all up to get the car on the road?

and if you would be able to give me a run down on what everything cost. if you were able to keep trck of it.

i have done a search but it all seems to be for the 2-door cars. Or other 4doors not cefiros in particular.

i have found a car in Japan that im dead set on getting once i sell my bloody 180 grrrr. so frustrating.

your help would be greatly appreciated.

cheers Benny.

woah twelve hundy in my opinion thats a way expensive compliance for a 15 yo car if ya a bit handy wit some shiz ya can do it all yaself in less time

child restraints $30 fit em yaself

intrusion bars i had made cost to previous made ones specs me $100 mig weld em in yaself (p.s i can do them at this price again to :(

nissan seatbelts normally meet RTA req elrvw's

high mount rear tail light $8.95

Engineers report for intrusion bars $160

fuel filler neck was $18 but i found this pretty hard and annoying to do myself $40 fitted at best enterprises

then just all the basic stuff make sure ya rails and bushes, boots are sweet and its not to loud no blow offs not to low which mine was with standard struts only by five mil so he let me go with it tyres are good and just all the standard rta stuff inspection in S.A is $70 with cop shop inspection at $13 then just rego and stamp duty and ya done easy done and its good to learn it yaself cause then ya can make some cash off the side off mates who want to buy an import :);) good luck with it mate hope it all works out for ya

p.s if need be i have all the standard shiz ya can borrow if your in sa with a deposit :)

Yeah doing it yaself is cheaper and great if ya got the time urself. Im pretty sure thou that an engineering cert is a fair bit more then 160 down here in Vic.

    • New CAS just turned up from NZ Wiring. Looks like a nice bit of gear.  So, yeah. Triggered, bro. Realised I may as well do the cam belt while mucking about with it so will order one of them.
    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • 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.
