I thought so, but nope. First reg in NZ. If however the car has come in from overseas and is first registered here outside those dates it will. Quote
WhangareiKE70 Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 Seat brackets/rails for cert, I understand they have to be a well known/good brand (can't remember the terminology atm), does Planted fit that bill? As in: https://www.plantedtechnology.com/products/seat-brackets/datsun/planted-seat-bracket-nissan-datsun-720-pickup-1980-1986-driver-left.html https://www.plantedtechnology.com/products/seat-brackets/datsun/planted-seat-bracket-nissan-datsun-720-pickup-1980-1986-passenger-right.html I'm fairly sure the seatbelt stalks are attached to the floor (not at home at the moment/been ages since I pulled it all apart) so they will look different to the stock photo on there. The seats are Recaro and I will probably use some universal sliders as well (I should have the height). TIA Quote
cletus Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 Probably ok, havnt seen any of that particular brand, usually the main issue with them is the belt buckle so if yours is off the floor you should be ok. 1 Quote

Cheers for that. Will add it to the list of questions for the Certifier I’m using but thought it might help to ask here first. Next question is regarding floor mount pedal boxes, looking to run this one: https://www.trademe.co.nz/trade-me-motors/car-parts-accessories/performance/other/auction-2330115255.htm will this require NDT/is it all good/no go at all? I will require some alternative setup due to the engine now taking the place the clutch pedal originally mounted, and this seems well built and decently priced (checked it out in person while in Taupo last weekend).

cletus Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Nah it's probably china junk. Here are the pre approved ones 3 Quote
WhangareiKE70 Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Chur, looks like the Wilwood/Tilton ones will be the go then, can potentially reuse the accelerator but definitely will need a brake/clutch setup. Will have a look at prices, cry, then suck it up. @cletus I owe you a beer. Quote
cletus Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 I had a quick look on cardwells site and there was a floor mount brake/clutch one for $540ish, no master cyls though Quote
WhangareiKE70 Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 https://cardwells.co.nz/wilwood-floor-mount-pedal-assembly.html This one here? This is accelerator/brake/clutch, but is essentially what I am after. Is this up to standard? I see that it is 1 digit different to the Wilwood 340-12410 mentioned in the section where it says it doesn’t require additional return springs? (Ends with a 1 instead of a zero). Otherwise I can get this from Straya via TM: https://www.trademe.co.nz/trade-me-motors/car-parts-accessories/parts-other-makes/brakes/auction-2331961258.htm which is the one mentioned above. Seems to be the only difference is the inclusion of the throttle link? Quote
kws Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Do you need a cert for something that has factory height adjusting airbag shocks in the rear only, converting to coil springs? Quote
locost_bryan Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 If I replace the original static 3-point seat belts with inertia reel belts using the factory-fitted anchor points, does that require a cert? (Pretty sure someone's asked before, but search didn't find an answer) Quote

Seems to be the only difference is the inclusion of the throttle link? @cletus any comment on this? I am going to send a list of stuff off to my certifier tomorrow but if you knew off the top of your head then that might save me a few dollarydoos. Also, looking for the section of the CCM where it talks about the allowable amount of clearance on a bolt hole. I thought it would be Section 18: Attachment Systems but can't seem to see it. Essentially I have M10 fasteners holding the plate for the new engine mounting bracket to the engine, how big can the holes in that plate be for them to go through? The Nissan ones seem to be about 11-11.5mm, should I use that as a guide or is there an actual thing/chart to go by? TIA Quote
cletus Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 Should be ok if it's the same thing, just minus the throttle I did ask lvvta the other day if those were ok and they said yes but may need ndt for the welded brake pedal I just looked at the cardwells site again and you could possibly use a separate clutch and brake setup and it was $356 for both, with a cast pedal which would avoid having to ndt the pedal Fastener clearance is really only on critical components or things that transmit high loads eg steering arms or 4 link brackets, things like that . If you do the same as/no worse than oe for engine mount brackets you should be ok 1 Quote

WhangareiKE70 Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 10/10, thanks for the response. I will have a look on the Cardwells website tomorrow at work because bigger screens. Quote
MACKAZ Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 When it comes to the brake declaration at cert time, do you have to prove everything is new, or is it a declaration of what's used? If so it's 100% Mitsubishi unmodified.... If it is required to be new, do you produce receipts, and are parts ordered through Rock Auto compliant? Because there's no Mitsubishi L200 listed I'm looking at Dodge D50 stuff. They're listed under Mitsubishi part numbers? Quote
tortron Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 D50 parts are the same part numbers as mitsi. Just rebadged. Most will start with MB Have a parts book here for 1st gen. I'd guess you are using 2nd Quote
MACKAZ Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 I don't really know what it is. All I vaguely remember was a brown L200 2000 Sport with single rectangle headlights, I had the tags for it but they've got lost when my brother bought our parents house and he chucked the majority of stuff that was put away by the old man in his little hidey holes. This shape Quote
tortron Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 1st gen. I can give you all the mitsi part numbers/diagrams if you like Quote
