Foreign Minister Julie Bishop is unafraid of a voter backlash over superannuation in her safe West Australian seat of Curtin.

Ms Bishop said there would be no changes made to the incoming superannuation regime and she would explain the reasons behind the decision to the Liberal Party's Curtin division, which opposes the policy.

Earlier this month, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull described the coalitions's determination to push ahead with a crackdown on superannuation tax concessions as "absolutely iron clad".

"We've got two days to go and I'm still campaigning," Ms Bishop told reporters in Perth on Wednesday.

"We don't take any seat for granted. It will be a close election and we're working hard across every electorate in Western Australia and across the country."
