hahah that might b a plan, i can tell them my car is really a diesel and has the rev limiter set to 2500rpm.

Damn if i had a pfc i could have lowered the rev limiter to 3000rpm then they couldnt rev it past there if they tried.

Thats the only thing that suxs about the s-afc is that if u unplug it from the loom the stock ecu wont run properly!

Xenons are the best - blue but legal! :P

A friend of mine has red angel eyes at the front of his car, but it's a BMW, so the cops don't bother him. :) 3 times cops have looked and not once have they booked him... ;)

Osram have good white bulbs too.

Xenons = HID = High Intensity Discharge = BRIGHT! = Expensive (A retro-kit for most cars will cost at least $1000 to buy (if it's a good quality kit))

:P

LED = Light Emittign Diode = Small, not very bright.

You can buy ordinary filament globes called 'xenon' but they are not. They have nothing to do with real xenons... A real Xenon bulb has no filament and will cost >$100. (Mine are $210 each!)

If you send anything into Vicroads they'll keep it forever... yes FOREVER. Everytime you get pulled over the copper can bring up your vehicle record and check "comments" on the system detailling everything that has been wrong with your car in the past. As for hard copy documents, there a storage building in reservoir that has almost every single document anyone has given to Vicroads since it was set up millions of years ago... Basically they know how to cover their arses and drill people when they continue to disobey the "law".

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      By sonicii · Posted

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????

      Looking for autoelectrician in Perth who can do the OEM to double din stereo upgrade.

      Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
