yeh, and id say that would be to do with cars with warn parts rather than illegal parts, but as they were saying on there, the cops seem to target the ones with illegal parts, not the rust buckets. i guess there's only one conclusion u can draw from that, and thats $$$ now some might argue modified cars are easier to spot, bs, its just as easy to spot a rust bucket as it is a import, well easier actually as u dont know whats under the hood of an modified import until u open it, unless it has mods visual from the outside. rust buckets are seen everywhere, rough panels, mismatched panels, loud exhausts with stock tips (obvious signs of rust etc), bald tires, broken lights etc. what about danger? i dont know about u, but i havnt seen any deaths directly attributed to BOV's and large wheels. id say having a car with screwed suspension, bald tires, leaking hoses and bad brakes would be more of a risk to people. then there's money, what is to be made out of defecting a bomb? they arnt worth the money to make roadworthy so they go off to the scrap yard, how does that benefit the government, its only a unroadworthy death trap off the road, its not like its going to pay off for them $$$ wise. modified cars however, we're suckers that will just keep paying to get our cars back on the road time after time as our cars are worth making roadworthy and we will pay the $$ to see it back on the road. im willing to cop the defect when i get done as i know i have illegally modified my car, but i think consistency is the key, id be more comfortable having my car taken off the road because its deemed unroadworthy if i knew there were rust buckets being taken off the road at the same time that are putting me and everyone else at a larger risk.

not to take anything away from sam, but i really doubt that i have not heard of a single healthy stock rb20 making near that figure, hell even CA's make around that at the rear wheels. ofcourse this depends on alot of things. even i and mates have have theirs dynod in stinking hot weather, one got 140rwkw and the other got 120rwkw, both absolutely bone stock, i got 150 with just a AM catback exhaust. all different dynos at different times BTW

probably been covered, but fresh were talking about it the other night, they were saying some bloke is trying to bring in yearly inspections like in other states.

u mean fit HICAS (4 wheel steering), or disconnect it to make just the fronts steer?

ditch the splash guard or cable tie it forward a bit, might be just enough to clear.

he could always strip it and get a fair bit. if he is interested chuck me a PM as im always after parts for mine

sounded good tho i rekon, my mates now got the exhaust, it was actually 3.5" straight through, did someone say drone? but when u opened it up, couldnt beat the sound.

completely depends on ur tune as to how the turbo will react, u really need to get it tuned. im in the same boat, put mine on and have been too lazy to get it remapped, so lag is pretty brutal and im only running 8psi, but it still goes hard considering. main thing ull notice is up high where the RB25 turbo keeps on truckin where the rb20 fades off.

puffs of black smoke are cause by ur recirc or blow-off valve, basically its ur engine running very rich as the air recorded to go into ur chamber by the AFM is lost. thats a pretty basic run down, theres more to it but basically its not too much of an issue and is a common thing for stock tuned cars, and even tuned cars. if its white smoke ur looking at burning coolant meaning usually head gasket, if its grey ur looking at oil which can be from a number of things.

do a search this has been covered many times. not many mods need to be done as they both obviously use the T3 flange, main differences are the snorkel/elbow whatever u want to call it which comes off the comp. housing (few options there) and the actuator, RB20 actuator will hold more boost stock (without a controller). pretty straight forward but try and get all the lines etc just incase something doesnt line up.

nah u need a big pole and a hammer, wallah!! high flow.

ive got a 3inch dump, gutted cat (hollow), 3inch catback with hotdog and JunBL muffler with twin flutes and a ECV in between the reso and muffler. not overly loud, bit quiter than my old system with a straight through catback from a stock dump and cat. ECV makes the system pretty close to stock noise. once i shut that on the cops dont really take notice. also the twin flutes are better for cop attention than a big cannon at the back.

first id try playing with ur igniter module, pull the plugs around when its missing, if its not that pull the plugs out individually in the coilpacks, eventually ull source the cylinder having the problem. chances are its a coilpack problem, if not check ur spark plug etc.

ill come grab them, where are ya?

LOL!! oh im in tears. just tax the bikes, and if ur required to give them back just take back the handlebars and say uve got no idea where the rest of it is.

is that at idle?

bump

if daniel sells me his 2 fronts u can have my passenger seat for $50, it is grey and has got a few stains from Japan but not f**ked.

your inbox is full again, heres a copy of the PM i was going to sned u, if u could reply via PM thatd be great. hey, ok its come time again to decide on whats next out of the group buy i should be getting, my car is a HCR32 and already has the shocks, kingsprings, caster and 1 rear camber kit (bushes yet to be installed), so next on the list looks like the swaybars, but im just wondering what else i should be looking at aswell, im spreading my budget between this and a remap so i dont want to be spending much more than $500 at the moment. now the rear subframe alignment seems to be a good option, but should i also be looking at a front strut brace? also, is there any point in getting rear strut braces for the R32's with their suspension setup? would i be able to pick up a cheap 2nd hand strut brace to do the same job? cheers, Stewart

yeh, not sure how much difference its going to make though, pretty sure both sedans and coupes use the same seats with the same mounts.

haha yeh i was struggling to, did u guys end up making it up to around crafers? i saw the stagea and another skyline i think cruising past up there, tried to chase u but by the time i got out of the carpark i didnt see where u guys had gone.

i didnt even last till the round about on main rd, everyone in the pack i was in pulled over.

just need to know whether r33 rear seats will fit into r32's?
