I've been there on 3 different occasions and have past first time every time, its best to get a mechanic to have a full check over your car before you go, so anything wrong can be fixed before you go.

you're a rare breed Ryan and a champ :P

Thanks pete but anyone would help. Sorry to highjack thread but

I have to say Pete, I have utter most respect for the effort you are putting in to help Adrian, Damo and Everyone involved. Helps bring some faith back into society when people go out of their way and at their cost to help others out, especially to this extent. Thankyou.

no problem champ, sounds good. Michael has a knack for making super quiet exhausts on high powered cars. His own 280rwkw R31 is dead quiet on full song lol.

Hey, This sounds like a spliting image of me only 2 weeks ago, On south road at regency

park cop did a u turn at lights and pulled me over(in my lunch break at work), and went through the

whole car, got done for a bit.

Told me the same, that he was going to fine me for each infrigment(modification) totalling $3000, but

only issued the defect saying he was be kind.

He to boasted about all the skylines he defects, and in particular from this forum(named it)

Wouldn't be suprised if the twat is reading this now.

Good luck with regency :P

    • Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.  
    • I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...
    • Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
    • To clarify what I posted above, I thought you both had a situation where it cancelled sooner one way than the other.....if it is reasonably even where it cancels in either direction that is probably normal (consider gentle movements like lane changes, you don't want it to need half a turn of lock to turn the indicators off)
    • Son, in this country, that is a piece of Gyprock. f**king drywall. FFS! I also like the autocorrect of trailer to tablet. I was reading it and thing, "what the hell drugs is he on?" Then the photo made it clear enough.
