haha,

I forgot 3" exhaust

How hard are these things to remove

Gauges I can take off myself, do you need to remove the associated cabling aswell to pass regency?

Blow off valve and exhaust I will have to get removed at a shop, and replaced with stock

Suspension? can I simply have it raised or do I need to remove adjustable shocks and replace with stock?

3" Exhaust..

Get a coke can and chop it up to the flange shape. Then drill a few large holes in the sucker. Silicon it all up place it behind the cat. Wait for it to dry then run a bit of grease and oil in to it and get it hot to make it look a little aged. >_<

all depends what sort of suspension you have, if they are adjustable platform coilovers then you can wind them up but still have the risk of them not going through becauase coilovers are illegal, however when my 33 came over from japland my coilovers went through ok.

most of them time, if your guages are below the dash line then theyll be ok, keep tread on your rears, not too low, not too loud, dont be stupid on the road and they'll be ok about it

If this is you Mick, give me a holla and i'll give you a run down. And if you have bought a skyline, fly around sometime -> doing the speed limit that is :)

btw..has it got a defect, or you just asking? as most have written, most likely everything, and depending on how they're feeling at regency

Plum back bov is a std piece of equipment and must be in along with all piping and recirc. hoses...

Aftermarket bov's are not allowed.

The same as what I was told... The afm to turbo pipe, cross over pipe, the std bov and its pipework cannot be touched. FMIC is allowed providing there's no cutting of the body and it doesn't hang lower than 100mm.

Hey Guys,

if it is a brand new exaust you should of got a silencer with your rear muffler otherwise known as the cannon wich passes you through regency as i have just passed with a 4 1/4 hiflow exhaust system

and bassically everything in which you listed in your last quote i got done for as well not to mention the rest.

let us know if you ever need to borrow a silencer.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      I put another 2 layers of putty and still getting pinholes. Think i might either try the filler first then putty or just leave the little specs of guidecoat as is and get primer to fill it in. I think i misread understood what you said above when you said my glazing putty wasnt enough for the size of the area. I thought you meant 1 coat and i needed to. But i think what you meant was that I needed filler first? I also went a bit too far out the repair area as my spreader is a bit large.

      You do sorta. In my instance they were little specs and I didn't even think they'd be pin holes but it all makes sense now. Huge learnings there!

      Ah ok that makes sense and it's where i think i went wrong because before when i put filler then putty, i didn't have this issue and now i do because i only put 1 coat of putty. Thanks for that heaps man, it's a good way to put it! With my putty I'm using the dolphin glaze which i just saw it says finishing putty lol. I didnt put filler cause it was a shallow area but i see what you're saying. Also I'm an idiot, i just realised that while i put new putty there are pinholes! I probably saw it before and ignored it for whatever reason. I think because i thought putty is used to fill pin holes that itself wont make pinholes but that's incorrect of course. I feel silly now haha. ok I think I know what to do next. Thanks man!

      Yes correct, the guide coat is showing low spots, in this instance the low spots are pin holes. I agree wetting the areas makes it more visible (but you can see it's there before you wet it as well lol).  Once the panel is flat, the guide coat will be gone

      I wouldn't do it outside, the contamination landing in the paint, the wind and a million other things will drive you crazy.     That's a way too big of an area to use your single stage putty on.  Pretend it's all filler and those pin holes appeared, you'd then use the putty on those pin holes.  They are still pin holes, hmm I expect a few coats of high fill primer could deal with those.
