permits dont mean sh*t in my opinion......

traffic cops need to make targets, if they want to sticker you, they will.

As for getting permits, a non atmo venting bov could be permitted, an alloy wing could be presumably it would have to be within certain width/length, front mount cooler needs to be behind bumper. if it is then u dont need a permit for it at all. exhaust needs to be under 91db and have more that 100mm clearance. not sure on body kits, window tint needs to be 35 grade or lighter, and vertical doors, by which i think you mean gull wing style? they would need to be engineered id say?!

yeh at end of the day its all comes down to the mood of the guy pulling you over, they can still sticker you. The permit might or might not affect their decision. perhaps the permit makes it easier to get the yellow off? no need to convert everything to stock?

I have permits for atmo BOV, catch can, strut brace, suspension, pod, gauges, intercooler and piping

Didnt think it was possible to get permit for exhaust and ECU, maybe I'll give it a go next time.

atmo b.o.v's are legal if they make less than 95 or 98 decibels

(dam hks super dragger :laugh: )

drive normal and have the right attitude and u will have no need for permits...

if you get a yellow, take it on the chin, such is life and theres no point having a cry over it (even if it wasnt fair)

begin rant

I couldnt agree with you more Michael.

I'm not inferring anyone in this discussion does, but if you wear your ball cap contrary to manufacturers instructions (Y0), have the doof set to 11 and your chair in shuttle take-off position then you just make yourself a target. Drive like a citizen, pick your moment to impress the seat cover an maintain a low profile :fakenopic: Think carefully about the mods you want and how it\you will be percieved, when you invite attention, that's what you get.

Having said this, sometimes just owning a car and being a young person will be enough.

Life is unfair and yes, THEY :nyaanyaa: often dont know what THEY are looking at.

Rant end

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
