Na you wont get fined if u extended ur yellow stickers, thats all u need to do. I try that on my wrex few yrs back, the cops cant do nothing about it when u got yellow.

Yes, pay just over $80 the first time, then just over $50 each time after that. I got my yellow mid-august & have had 5 inspections in total. I would much rather have been able to use that $300 for something else.

Oh, and then end up like me on the 22nd as I'm on my final extension, after which it will be illegal to drive my car on the road. Apparently I wasn't even meant to be given this one, so if you want to a rebel & have a sticker on for 4 inspections over a few months instead of just clearing it go for it.

Got the yellow, had an inspection with a list of things to be fixed up & that included getting permits (mostly due to the turbo). Applied, 3 weeks later get a letter saying application is rejected. So I had to re-apply, 4 weeks later I got a pre-approval letter. (another couple of weeks in between this while I got the car sorted with changing some things over) Got all the stuff done for engineering & then was being told the emissions test I had done weren't what they required & they left it up to me to find out what was. This was just before xmas & new years where everyone is on holidays, so I lost a couple of weeks there. Then I find out from a guy at vehicle safety that what I have is correct for the emissions report, so I lost 2-3 weeks when I could have handed it all in. That went in the week just gone so will hopefully hear back in a couple of weeks time depending on what sort of backlog they have at the moment. Then I can take it over for permits & be done with it.

Oh and for the last few months my car has been de-tuned to 50% power so it's not even fun to drive :D

Lol... but i didnt get charge for that much because the inspection guy said no point to keep coming here so he gave me 2 months extended twice for the yellow so the cops wont be bother about it. So i just leave it :D I only got the yellow for stupid tint anyway and all the modification already got permit for it.

they don't have to give you extensions, otherwise they would just give you x amount of weeks to begin with.

also, just because you already have a work order, doesnt mean it cant be added too. :P

Yeah isn't the maximum extension 14days? How did you get 2 months?

Oh, and how about actually getting the yellow removed in the end? After the unbelievable 2month extension? There IS a timelimit to getting it fixed you know....

Sorry guys i cant be able to tell u guys his name because his my friend friends, hope u guys understand. I been seen him for 4-5 yrs now everytime when i get yellow. Thats why he know me and my cars very well. I got pull over few times when i got yellow on the car for 2 months, the cop didnt do nothing about it when they saw the yellow. Worst to worst if i got the yellow i dont really cared so the cops wont be so annoying. The way i see it even u got permit for it they will just pick u anything to gave u a yellow, that how i see from my point anyway. Oh and the 2 month extension, I take out the dark tint on the window after 2 month thats how i get it off.

do tell which pits/inspector ;)

Midland pits, older big jolly (read: beergut) guy, can't remember his name but he was rather sympathetic to our cause and complimented me on the car and all skylines in general.

Yeah I got 3 3-week extensions from Welshpool & Midland, and a 4 week extension from O'Connor. They are inconsistent as f**k in regards to everything that they do.

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.

      Short shifter r34

      By Duncan · Posted

      How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
