mmm... nice, but still something about the Bayside Blue tho :), any pics to change my mind?? Mind if i ask why u changed cars?? The blue looked awesome!! Vented bonnet, 19inch rims (i think)... looked like quite a few goodies in her too...

oh and congrats on the new move. Been recommended by quite a few ppl to your place, cos i was doing some research into where i could get a car serviced/modified etc as i wasn't too keen on going out to Thomastown or whatever, seems i live in Sandringahm, so u guys are pretty close.

have u had experience with any RAWS compliancing yet? or still too early?

cheers.

i like the blue too,i sold it because an old fella in sydney made me an offer too good to refuse and when it came time to find a replacement decided i didnt want the same color.

it was quicker 335kw than this one ,but a bit hard core too,this will be under 300kw but will drive like a stocker and not attract as much attention.

still too early on the raws.

we have passed our stage 1 audit,stage 2 audit is 20th may,once we pass that we will be good to go.

cool on the photos,yep the boys took photos before me,i dont have any photos yet.

it has nothing to do with inflating prices.

av price will be $4000-$5000.

costs will be much higher.

brake pads,expensive cat convertors,pollution canisters,just to name a few.

also most shops will need to employ a book keeper to do all the paperwork required.

all equipment needs to be tested and logged.

its nothing like the old system,mountains of paperwork etc.

the costs will be higher and i doubt we will make anymore money on a $4000 compliance job,compared to a $2200 job under the old system.

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
