konect Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) so has the cef passed vic roads inspection ? Just sent you a msg I made the trek to VicRoads on Tuesday with RWC (which got wet!) and was super nervous because I was sure I was going to get rejected. First thing, they booked my appointment for the wrong office but a guy helped me out and did the inspection. After much discussion about compliance plates (or lack there of) I had the plates in my hand and the BIGGEST smile on my face! So good to be able to drive legally on the road again. But the car needs a bit of work as its been sitting around. Going to fit a manual boost controller and crank the boost up as well as generally clean the car up, fit my Defi sensors etc. Will be up for a cruise soon VIC peoples! I'll take some pics over the w/e too Ryan.

works 510 Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Good point, Now, how many have rego and are currently driveable mine isnt depending on how bad the damage is on the rails they will pass, also depends where you take it.

Dan_J Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Have you given a RWC a go? remember.... i told u i failed my last roady, but it seemed like my guy was the tightest? then again i thought all other rwc guys wud be the same so i gave up depending on how bad the damage is on the rails they will pass, also depends where you take it. thing is no one feels generous enuff to clue me in on the non tight ones around ( not even talking about the 'good' ones) now back on topic. how laggy is that high mount of yours? full boost at wat rpm?

konect Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) Did 450k's on the weekend (most of it thrashing hahaha) and remembered how much I used to spend on fuel Full boost comes on by about 4-4.5k and pulls hard to redline..also found out that I doesn't seem to have a rev limiter it just kind of bumps around between 8 and 9k. Will have to get onto fixing that. I also can't get my boost controller to boost above 1bar so I am going to get one of those cheap bleed valves and turn it up to 1.2bar and get it dynoed. Hopefully with a bit more boost the turbo will come on a bit sooner. Still got 1 tiny exhaust leak to fix too and timing adjustment could also help but all in good time. Felt super solid sliding it now that I'm getting used to the setup but need to tighten handbrake asap. Will post pics tonight Edited March 16, 2009 by konect Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/233596-k-o-n-e-c-t-s-c-e-f-i-r-o/page/2/#findComment-4479719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
konect Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) As promised... Sorry for the weird lighting, I think my lens may have been fogged up..but you get the idea Looks pretty much the same but has more matte black action haha. I bought an SR20 180 passenger seat to go in it on the weekend as the Recaro copy was buggered and no doubt Dan_J wants his standard one back and getting guards rolled shortly as it is getting some mean scrub. I also made some future plans today which consist of z32, injectors, 1.2 bar and a smooth remap, but all in due course. Gotta pay off the bloody RWC first!

It use to look so much better JK lol the piping is still all there, its just matte black now. I kind of had to do something to disguise it to get through RWC and VicRoads inspection so the matte black was used 'liberally'. I agree the rims could be better but they are lightweight and good size and offset for sliding. +1 to the grill, I just had it on there for RWC but probably going to replace it with Autobarn black mesh for air flow. The front bar was actually in 2 pieces at xmas time 2007 but its had a pretty good repair job just flares a little at the sides which cable ties fixed right up!

Haha big difference between sliding a car that actually cost me $2200 FOB and $80k around a dusty ol drift track I always bag out the wheels since the ones that were on it were so awesome But I had my GTS at a skid pan day with only 280km on the clock! And then again at 1200km and again at 3500km. It sits now with 5500km on the clock. It just hurts sliding on $1500 worth of bridgestone rubber JK Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/233596-k-o-n-e-c-t-s-c-e-f-i-r-o/page/2/#findComment-4484465 Share on other sites More sharing options...
