Hi! Its no secret that my car is about to head of to its new owner.

I have to get him a RWC etc , all good...

Now i am a bit of a stresser when it comes to imports and RWC's in my local town because they are fairly rare for the area and knowledge is scarce ... I have made the booking for Monday and wondering what alternitives i have other than chasing up original airbox...

it also has a 3.5inch cannon on it that's fairly notey i am a bit worried about aswell?

It shouldnt be a problem as both these mod's have been through complience and 2 roadworthies but that was melbourne!

the rest of the car is totally original

Could anyone comment on how they may have got passed this?

play innocent? Most places that do a RWC will give you some things to fix up, then issue you the cert once you fix it up, so rock up with the pod, if they don't notice it you won't have to fix it :ninja:

1 intake mod is allowed in vic, so it should pass, as long as you dont have a fmic.

my car passed a road worthy with a pod, but the old owner had to get it so it could have been a dodgy.

PS is anyone elses quick reply and quote buttons not working?

can anyone verify that on gtst if u have a fmic can u have a pod aswell if u have it in a box?

This has already been asnwered in this thread.

VicRoads + RWC testers don't care a whole lot about intake mods, it's EPA that you need to worry about.

...and a pod is a pod, it doesn't matter if it's in a box or not, it's still classified as an intake mod.

actually you are allowed a POD, however the filter has to be the kind that is non oiled.

HKS filters are legal because they are a dry element. K&N filters on the other hand which require oiling are illegal.

Check out vicroads and read up on it. You wont have any problems passing with the Pod filters.

HKS filters are of oil element... well the Mushroom ones anyways...

    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise

    • Was that Australia Delivered Duncan? Does it have siren etc?   I used to have remote start on an old 32 two decades ago, it was a cool feature. I used to wake up early in winter for work. Start it and by the time i was out the door a few minutes later the engine was warmed up and the heaters had the car toasty. It was great.    I don’t mine the ambience lighting.  I drive a western star and it has footwell lights and ambient lighting and it’s great! From the pics of seen of them installed in a skyline I think it’s a nice touch
