You can not supply a car to the market modified from what the VIC states and that means for a dealer no mater who complied it be it external or not it is not to be modified until is has been sold and new owner has taken delivery.

Just because it has a compliance plate fitted, been pit passed or as a workshop you don't own the car it is to be as per the VIC states, when people spam photos of their car just as they pick it up with rust on bolts for things like the Pod Filter and BOV you can see it was never touched.

Their is a reason why the RAWS Guide was amended and it will be amended again if a couple of workshops are not shut down and it doesn't scare people into doing what is expected, no more DOTARS proving you did something wrong you now have to prove to them you didn't do any thing wrong.

lol Dave... yes, a mutual understanding is one thing, putting it down in written form is well... a little dangerous. And yes, DOTARS do visit this site... I've spoken to one of the guys on the RAWS team after he came on here to read up on some V35 info.

I'd just like to state, for the record, that I hold the guys at DoTaRS in extremely high regard - two big thumbs up from me guys :D

must have been a hacker who logged in and used our SAU account that afternoon.

A bit dangerous, yes, but that's how we roll at carizma.

We absolutely love DOTARS here, and especially the RAWS team.

    • People think it's a waste of space, ugly, etc, generally associate "emissions control equipment" with "bad". These OBD1 vacuum-only systems I'm not a huge fan because I think they don't go far enough. They're wasting some of the fuel captured because they start purging as soon as the engine pulls vacuum. Later OBD1/OBD2 they put an electric purge valve on them to vent only when closed loop is active so the ECU will trim some fuel out. Even later OBD2 with zero evaporative loss the tank is 100% sealed from atmosphere until you run the engine or press the refuel door release. The tank has to take much higher vacuum/pressure spec but you never deal with saturating the charcoal canister and losing some fuel that way. The fuel also lasts as long as it would in a 100% airtight container which is nice when you're dealing with modern E10 pump gas.
    • If your luck is anything like mine, what happens is in the process of pulling hoses to get access to the one leak you create many more leaks because every o-ring was on the verge of failing and the strain of pulling it apart caused it to fail. Sometimes life is simple, sometimes you pay twice trying to save once. For the R33 you can still get most AC components from Nissan, I use nissan epc data or amayama to look up the part numbers and then search for the cheapest/most practical way of sourcing from there.
    • The dirty secret is there is nothing recyclable about the plastic bag or old plastic bottles either. Our local trash collection explicitly calls it out as hazmat in both cases. Oil-soaked rags + paper towels too. Oil-soaked cardboard is also not recyclable. The most common case of oil-soaked paper like that is pizza boxes, which are explicitly compost-only from the oil. To my knowledge hazmat oil contaminated plastic the only solution is either landfill or "thermal recycling". Most plastics in my experience there is slow permeation of the oil it's holding into the container so it's very challenging to get it 100% clean.
    • Yes, and since RAA insurance essentially being swallowed up by the same monster that is NRMA insurance and all those other clowns, they are no bloody good now either. We dropped RAA insurance for the house a little while back because they lost the plot.
    • I can tell you now, good luck if you're with NRMA (NSW equiv of vis RACV and QLD RACQ). Because NRMA are freaking horrendous to deal with for claims, even with a normal road car. Not to mention even more BS when they're in the wrong and didn't cancel a policy etc when they were meant to and make you jump through hoops for things.
