Got My Car Back!

[rad100]

ok so its not off defect but its HOME! stock springs r on, rb20 turbo is on and front bar fixed and painted!!! but.... i still need to remove eboost and timer... r these hard to do or should i go somewere to do them? also i was maybe thinking that for the people who have had regency experience maybe i could show my car to see if they could spot anything i may need to fix before the booking? as this is my first time i dont know wat to look for!!! also wondering if 18's r legal for a 32? as i am getting new 18's and dont wanna put them on just in case there illegal!! ne ways if anyone could help or has any ideas feel free to express!!

cheers adrian.

ps. this is what she looks like now! minus gtr wing!

[paulmac]

yeah 18's are legal on gtst's your allowed to go 2 inches above stock wheel size and i dunno about eboost but timer is reasonably easy

[Madaz]

to my knowledge your not alowed to have your number plate on the side it must be centered

[KISIN]

i wouldnt even be risking it wih 18's (u know how regency are...) and defenetly relocate the number plates back

[Howie]

sorry to hear about your defect.

with the eboost. try putting in a restrictor and unhooking the solenoid+controller for the eboost until it gets off defect.

and for the tt, if the timer has a harness to it, then just unhook it from the harness.

btw, what did you go in for in the first place? ride height?

to my knowledge your not alowed to have your number plate on the side it must be centered

if you have a number plate relocation kit fitted it will be oka but if not then ur gonna have to put it back in the centre.

[rad100]

yeh got done for ride height.

[rad100]

would anyone be kind enough to have a look over my car one day to see if they can spot anything??? i know ppl r busy but i could help with some beers or $$

If its not close to std, be prepared for a few trips back.

[rad100]

its got cooler, pod but i have mounted that to the body! thats all i know of!!

[Rob]

Boost controller & turbo timer need to be removed, or they will send you packing until they are. This includes any evidence that they were installed. Give it a go with them "disconnected" if you like, but you are highly unlikely to pass unless you get a laid back inspector.

Numberplate 100% has to be centred as well.

Do you have an aftermarket exhaust? They checked the dB of mine and lucky mine was quiet so they let me pass. had to rev the engine to 3,000 RPM. I also put the stock airbox in to lower the noise.

They also checked my hicas lines etc, Upper control arms (always the 1st thing they check on the 32), and Radius Rods (castor). They'd do the same to your car

Also make sure all the lights, demisters are working or they'll reem u 4 it.

Do you have an eye level rear brake light?

TT- just disconnect the interface and hide the harness, pretty sure if the popo didnt see it, regency wouldnt check for it. That's if you hid it

Ill be more than happy to go through things with ya, just PM me. (ive been through regency quite a lot haha)

According to the ADR's the exhaust is supposed to be tested with them standing on the side of the road at a 45 deg angle with u driving past at a set speed. Go ask them to show u in the ADR book how it says to test. Not with the sound probe up the exhaust like im guessing your was?

[thanglongz]

Im unsure of the requirements of the ADR testing. He didnt put a probe in my exhaust, just placed a microphone like thingo about a foot away from the cannon and told me to rev the engine to a set RPM.
