Ahh I see you've driven on Parramatta Rd ;)

I used up about $85 on the way there and about $70 on the way back (after the new exhaust was fitted) if that helps.

hey PVA...

what does your blitz pod sound like and how much is it? my pod is wierd.

now for my tale of my f**ked up chassis ;)

while me and my family were holidaying in melbourne we drove around alot... untill the last 4 days we were there my dad noticed some flaping sounds from the rear tyres, when he got out he bent down and noticed that half of the tyre was worn to the belts but the rest of it was full tread...

when we went to get new rear tyres the guy said to have it alligned so we followed his advice... but when the guy started to allign the car he couldent get it to match and was confused about it untill he noticed all the dents and bends on the left hand side of the crossmember :D

when we bought the car we got it inspected by an engineer and he said "small accident damage" but nothing like this! now me and my dad have to pay $1400 for the pannel beating and another $770 for the rear tyres and we need to do it soon because our tyres and getting screwed allredy :)

now my dad is thinking of sueing the engineer but i dont think he will win :D

anyway... thats life :D

caio

hey neoGT, what do u mean when u say ur pod sounds weird?? when i use to have the k&n pod in, it use to make an awesome induction noise, i liked it.

sorry to hear about ur car, sounds like ur engineer didnt do a good job of checking, any damage to the chasis is no good.

Cold Air intake

Blitz NA ECU engine management

Front and Rear Struts

white line Suspension pakages

DBA cross drilled and slotted Rotors

Endless beake pads

Redline engine oil and differential oils

17" ROH wheels YOKOHAMA tires

that's pretty much it!

Turbo would be nice!

If your car has No GO then for RICEY looks :D

cheers

    • It’s not driver training though, it’s just an online questionnaire and $65 
    • Almost certainly no. In Vic they have this crazily restrictive set of rules for mods that is usually interpreted as "no more than 2 modifications to the intake system". And they're not real hot on upgraded turbos at all, let alone high mounts. That means if you fit a bigger (particularly front mount) intercooler (which is, of course, almost impossible to go without) then you're already down to one other mod allowed. You'll really benefit from hearing from someone from Vic who knows the real state of play. Even better, speak to an automotive mods certifying engineer from Vic. You can actually read the rules from the govco websites yourself, too.
    • Well, I'm not clicking on a link to f**king bookface (never have, never will), so I can't really know what the complaint here is about, but.... There's nothing particularly wrong with forcing people to have a higher license category to drive super/hypercars. Note that the laws are not about modified cars - only listed standard cars, because there are not supposed to be cars modified enough to meet the law's category limits anyway. If you have a modified car that falls into those power limits you're already in trouble anyway. What is wrong is the bullshit on-line "test" to get the upgrade, instead of any actual work and training.
    • Meh Don't have Facebook anymore but watched a YouTube about it, they also talked about them not being able to use and "sports" modes, not really sure how they would enforce that apart from logging the Db for the cars that have exhaust valve activation in sports mode Apart from all the high end sports cars and supercars that make the sort of power they are talking about standard, I cannot see it bothering anyone else, unless of course road side tests now include having a dyno and scales on site to test the power output vs weight What is it? 500hp per ton? And if the only additional cost is $60 or so, as the video stated, I cannot see that being a war stopper for the people that outlay a few hundred thousand dollars on a performance car In fact, I see it would be a ego boost for some, because they have a "special" drivers licence for a "special"person with a "special" car And if I did have a modified car that made over the limit, there's no way in hell I would apply for a "special" licence, I could see the authorities checking your licence against your rego, so if old mate applied for a licence, but owns a, say, R33 Skyline, that may trigger an inspection of said car as to why, and how, that old mate has a R33 that would fit the bill of making over 500hp per ton Again, meh, not something I believe will be a real issue to 99.9% of people
