Took the car this morning to a Tyre shop and the dude undid the wheel nut for me (mofo was on tight as shit!). Next issue was the adjustable rings were basically seized on and after an hour of hammering at it this evening and I finally got it loosened. Check list almost done: Indicators fitted (tick), suspension raised to 110mm-ish (tick) and now just waiting on delivery of battery clamp. Then blue slip on friday!!! woop! -

oh really? the aftermarket BOV was recirculating back into the uncompressed side of the intake anyway, but yeah guess that could be a goer then if it can handle. sooo the story continues: The guys at Quixspede did the blue slip and said all I had to do was get a battery clamp (has cable ties holding it atm), get covers/lenses for the side indicators(the ones behind the wheel arch, as the light blub is exposed) and raise the back of the car 20mm as the lowest point on the car is at 80mm. I feel this is greatQ pretty easy to fix to get the car back on the road. Today I fitted after-market side indicators, still waiting on delivery on the battery clamp and adjusted the adjusties. But ran into an issue, I did the back right side fine(wheel nuts were hard to get off) I couldn't for the life of me get 1 of the wheel nuts on the left side off going to a mechanic tomorrow morning to see if their air compressor gun can get it off. I actually bent my wheel brace trying to get it off. Adjusting them were easy, I was going to buy a c spanner but found a screw driver and hammer the better/cheaper option -

lol you are not going to believe this... So I rock up to the Mechanics on Clark Road in Neutral Bay and the first thing he says is "have you fixed the oil leak". I'm like ummmm what oil leak??? he pops the bonnet and wipes his hand on the backside of the engine and is hand has some dirty/grease stuff on it, no way oily at all. I said to him dude thats not an oil leak thats a dirty engine the car is parked in the same spot and there are NO oil drips on the concrete so your full of shit. He then processed to tell me he was not going to do it as he would be accountable for everything on the car if I got pulled over by the cops. I said well IF in that case I did get pulled over and the cops for some strange reason even wanted to ever talk to you, you could just say it was all standard to begin with(but why would they want to speak to you anyway! maybe if the car was in an accident). I was pleading with the guy (I don't know why, guess I just wanted it done) to do the blue slip but still refused. So drove up the road to another place in North Sydney called Quixspede and booked it in there. I noticed they had some performance cars in their garage so maybe these dudes will know what they are doing.. hopefully. -

so what if it was imported with the mods all ready on it? then they would be legal right? -

Getting My Gtr Back On The Road
niknac replied to JimmyRickard's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Looks nice man! I'm no pro on the law here in Aus. But I'm sure you'll need an engineers cert/report for all those mods before going for a blue slip They pinged me on my blue slip for having a f**Kin pod filter!! -

niknac replied to niknac's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
btw everyone, had a proper look under the bonnet and took of some stuff off so I could see around the area better. I found the bov DOES recirculate back into the uncompressed side of the turbo just after the air flow meter which is standard..... the psssshhhh noise was coming out of the pod filter haha So now I know that they can not ping me on the BOV anymore as it spec to standard recirculating not atmospheric, just have to add in the standard intake box to stop the noise Also I found a standard R32 RB20DET air intake box for $10 on trademe.co.nz and with the exchange rate make that approx $8 yeaha! -

lol yeah I've heard WA and Queensland are a bit loose sweet I'll check that out, but I recon it maybe cheaper to find an original air box, than somehow enclosing the pod(which is kind of next to the intercooler behind the bumper). -

Thanks Hadouken & StevenCJR31. Man these strayin laws are crazy! I wonder how they though a pod filter should be deemed illegal.... anywho: When I went to pick up the car, I spoke to a different guy who loves Skylines and he just said its a stupid law but thats what it is. So I actaully found the original 'BOV/recurculation valve' in the boot and fitted it. and guess I'll have to shell out for a intake box here's a pic of the original next to the aftermarket:
