I had the most brilliant of thoughts for the next time the officer pulls you over and stuff.

Just rip out a keyboard and a screen and talk to him that way. Its a sure winner.

Tell him about how your gonna have 300rwkw but you still want midrange, how your 19, a pro driver and all the other stuff you've come out with of late.

He'll soon be so scared off because of your ub3r l33tn3$$ that you wont be defected!

Thats like, the bestest idea i think.

On a serious note, have you even checked the ADR's before calling it wrong?

man thats some bad luck, as i stated before in the forums, when i had my 33 a cop gave me a defect for my battery being in the boot. When ever a cop pulls you over just agree with what they are saying, always tell the truth and walk away. I went to vicroads with the factory manual.They told me to go to the police station. I went there talked to the officer, the officer appologised to me and took it off. Good luck with the Vicroads

Why would you bother getting a roadworthy?

You've already said that the officer didn't tick the box stating that you needed a roadworthy or engineers certificate.

Do Vicroads have a record of the alleged defect?

If it's not on their system, what's the point in getting a roadworthy done?

Airbags are triggered by a number of sensors at the front, and sides of the vehicle.

I have worked with an airbag producer and they are calibrated EXACTLY for the layout of a vehicle AS IT LEAVES THE FACTORY.

If you add, say, a large chunk of aluminium to the front of the car, it is reasonable to assume that the frontal crash behaviour will be affected, and similarly the airbag deployment characteristics will be changed.

So, yes, the cop definitely has legs to stand on.

Do not assume that you are always (ever!) right, the officer is right in this situation.

i know removing safety features isnt the best idea but you could deploy/remove the airbag, then that wouldnt be an issue of getting eng certif. ect.. put an aftermarket steeering wheel on.. just a thought.. i would consider if i was in your shoes.

Airbag deploying mechanism's can't be very well set up then.. If the chunk of aluminium in question happens to be the radiator of the other car and not your own fmic you have to worry whether it will go off? Least my car is safe.. the crumple zone is whatever i hit.. hopefully a nice little korean car with a decent safety rating that will smoosh to diminish impact >_<

if your car came factory with an airbag you're not allowed to run an aftermarket steeringwheel..unless it has an airbag as well..which would defeat the purpose

      R34 gtt rb25det neo timing belt kit

      By Duncan · Posted

      1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.

      R34 gtt rb25det neo timing belt kit

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
