Im actually surprised the cop knew enough to recognize the car was stock standard...

I suppose some if them may actually know what they are talking about...

More like he popped the bonnet and didn't see a bright colour pod and bling bling fmic piping so he assumed it was stock

I had my i/c piping painted black and cut a section of the stock snorkel to fit around the piping. I also have a pod shielding around my filter that I painted black aswell, only somebody who knew what they were looking at could tell it wasn't stock.

Ha the irony... you do realise that HID kits on R33s are illegal and void your insurance policy?

Umm yeah i do, i don't have HID's on my car though :D

Any HID kit fitted to a vehicle where HID's don't come from factory are illegal because they don't have self levelling functions. Then again what doesn't void your insurance these days.

Luckily im insured with Shannons and all my mods have been listed so i should be fine :laugh:

how much do Shannons cost?

Good idea Yo-Yo, I'm gonna paint my pod housing black too

angryghost you can purchase some flexible heat shield material from clark rubber for $20 a metre,

they're silver and only provides heat resistence on one side, the other side is soft foam.

Here's my topic about it Cold Air For Pod Filter

      High temp brake fluid?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.

      Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.

      The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good?
