Black Forrest Industries dont ship orders internationally. You would be better off sourcing those items from elsewhere that stocks those items.

Well none of those items are BFI products specifically. So im not spamming my wares if thats what you mean although now you mention it BFI do have an Australian distributor for any of those people looking to source product they manufacture.


Id hit up somewhere like ECS tuning or MJM Autohaus perhaps they may be able to help you if youre looking to buy offshore

I like your parts list That Peloquin LSD would be a nice mod if your thinking big power. I'd love to have the cash to splash on a few more shiny go fast bits but sadly the damn wife and children insist on warming the house and heating.

with the skid plate, are you gonna get low enough to justify gettin one of those in australia?
first of all, our roads are ****house so you probably could justify it.
but and second of all, youll probably get defected of being anywhere near low enough to justify a skid plate anyway i reckon.
that being said, im low enough to be uncomfortable and i havent been defected...yet. but i still dun need a skid plate.

just know the routes your going to go and know alternate, less speed bumped, routes thats what i do!

Its probably alot cheaper to get one made in Australia, think of the shipping for that part, not very good.

Someone could fabricate it which would be just as good I reckon.

[Shteifen]

good point didnt think of that. a few places could probably do it and you'd have some say in what its made of and how thick balh bla blah

If I ever wanted a skid plate I'd make one myself at work. It wouldn't need to be fabulous, it's on the most unseen part of the engine! I'd just cut it and file the edges, and drill holes where I need to. Nothing fancy. Function over fancy

[Shteifen]

for the underside of the car atleast!

Skid plate would be good for any VR6. My 2.0L sump bolt has the subframe to protect it haha. My sump is smashed up and so is subframe but the bolt is untouched!!

[DubSteve]

I'm looking into using a r32 sump for the VR6 its possible and quite easy to achieve!

This will also raise your sump over 1/2 a inch

trust me its justifiable iv already replaced two bolts and my sump is so badly dinted im surprised it still holds oil, but yeah i probably would make one but then again if i can get an r32 one i would never need one

[DubSteve]

You still need a r32 oil pickup as the VR one is too long. But all the holes on a R and VR line up on the sumps
