from another forum- posted by an RTA worker! and performance car owner........

Ok all, this no doubt affects 100% of the guys out there, but its time we did something about the

authorities defecting people for no reason.

Hands up those people who have been defected for something totally

outrageous like: 'guages too high?, or exhaust not mounted properly, or even

'****pit lights too bright?'.

Nowhere in the ADR's or RTA Light Vehicle Modifications Act does it state

anything like this and it seems that cops are pulling people over and

defecting them for what ever they make up on the spot. Some guys carry a

copy of the ADR's and Act in their car and when asking the police to refer

to the defect in question they have no idea - cause it is not in the

documents!

A couple of forums are getting in on the act and we are all getting peoples

stories from around the country of how rediculous the whole system is at the

moment, and for what can only be seen as a money-making scam. The police

have picked on us for too long, made millions out of a scam, and wasteing

valuable resources chasing us down while letting smoke belching bombs drive

past. Why arent they out on the streets fighting crime? doing drug busts, or

even catching that bastard that broke into my house and stole all my sh*t!!!

I dont need to remind you that they are quickly losing the respect of the

public!

Thousands of emails are expected to be gathered and handed to channel 7

Today Tonight, and Channel 9 A Current Affair all at once. Each network will

be told that the other network has just been handed the same thing and we'll

see them fight for who is gonna do it first!

Please send your defect stories to [email protected] by end of Friday

14th March. Now's your chance to finally do something about it!

Thanks for your time.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
