car to start up and drive next weekend

[dabigbolf]

hey,

Finally my car is making some progress. After the gearbox dilema, i have got most of the stuff sorted. And a big spending spree planned to buy and get all work done this week. pump, tailshaft, radiator, thermos.

Next weekend with everything in and ready to go, except the exhaust, is it ok to drive it around straight off the dump pipe?

I dont have a front pipe to connect to the rest of the exhaust.

And the engine mounts are going to be modded where i am getting the cooler piping, and new dump/front made up, so i will have to go with no bonnet either. And just run the stock cooler to the place. (its through back streets so i guess it should be ok, for no cops to pull me over.

But the place i got to take the car to is like 10 minutes away, anyway, and getting it towed is just not worth it. Seeing as i can drive it anyways.

But yeah, driving off the dump pipe that doesn't harm anything does it?

just freakn noisey yeah.

the only thing i would worrie about is the heat that will buildup under the bonnet and near the wires around the turbo, and near the firewall, would melt some stuff.

[dabigbolf]

yeah, i'd make sure everything is sweet. but if the bonnets off.

heat should just go out. and wouldn't be a worry.

i am getting worries about the big i will cop if i do get busted. so i might just bolt up half a vl exhaust with a cat.

and run the standard silvia exhaust, so it still looks like i got a zorst. although i will be taking it round the block, just because.

got to find some stock cooler piping now.

so i can do so.

damn it

Just get a 3 day rego. And on it specify that you are moving it for mechanical repairs. You cannot get defected, and it only costs 30 bucks for 3 days, well thats wat is costs here.

Ask for a temp permit for unregistered vehicle form

[dabigbolf]

ahk cool.

never new about that

[Ender]

dosen't cost too much either, just have to drive it in daylight hours and only to and from the workshop etc...something like that anyway...
