i was pulled over recently @ a defect blitz in the city (one of many going around at the moment) but lucky i had my standard exaust on for a while now and only need put my stock airbox on in place for the pod filter, the police officer took a photo of my engine bay and told me if the EPA want to see my car in person ill get a letter.

So, he didn't say i will get one, he told me maybe, they let me off too, top cops.

I hope they are too busy to even bother.

man whats going on the EPA are now the one's issueing and telling people whats RWC and whats not this ant wirte. i have being told that you can only get a RWC tester to state what is un-RWC and RWC on a car not the cops or the EPA if i get EPAed and they say my pod and other bits and pices are illegal ill thell were to put it. my reason be hind this is the EPA is responserble for the enviroment not the RWCness of a car :)

I must have been lucky too,

Perhaps with the amount of police sending imports and the similar turbo sports cars through places like macleod, the employees are getting slacker, over worked?

that would be a nice scenario...

on the other hand, when i was there the blokes were really friendly and if you treat them with some respect it goes a long way.

goodluck.

      General interior R34 questions

      By r34killa · Posted

      Hi everyone, I'm generally new to DIY projects, and I've browsed this forum and watched a lot of youtube videos but still have a few questions   Firstly, how does spray painting interior hold up? in particular like vinyl parts, my current mode of thinking is to use methyl spirits to take off original paint, clean/prep well, light coats, no primer or clear coat    Secondly, what is recommended for the headliner and, for example (my car is a r34), the A-pillars which are some kind of other fabric material, do you think I would be successful at retrimming these? or would it be better to go down the blacking out via Dupli-Color Vinyl & Fabric Paint    Any other advice / tips / tricks for refreshing/modernising these interiors?    Thanks

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just note that when trying to find a short in a globe power supply, it is best to disconnect the globe as it will allow current through to earth. With it unplugged it is easier not to get confused. Also with the r32 wiring, the high beam has 2 power supplies (one when you push the switch forward and the other when you temporarily pull it back; so if it is the high beam blowing you will need to trace both circuits

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That's a short. Find the short. It will be somewhere between that fuse and the headlight. Start by removing the plugs from the back of the headlight and dimmer switches, and measure resistance to earth. Supply side (power from the fuse) should have none. The other side should have resistance compatible with whatever globe(s) is there (which is relatively easy to say for a normal globe, perhaps not as easy to say for LEDs). Anyway, if you have very low resistance, you defo have a short. Then you just have to run the wiring like you're running the bowel of a dog (on the operating table) that has swallowed something it wasn't supposed to.
