so hang on a minute. your saying that if you have these stickers on the car its ok providing that you have the parts fitted?

More or less, yes. Or they are a official sponsor of some sort.

Japanese parts all come with stickers. In japan it is quite normal to have a shopping list of official parts on your car, but culture there is different, there is less crime(so advertising parts has less worry), no P-plater hoons and car modification is a highly regarded 'career'. it is quite well respected.

It also much cheaper to purchase parts there which make brand name parts more accessible to the public, unlike australia.

However this culture has been bastardized by many people just pointlessly putting stickers everywhere for the sake of it.

I blame the following: Fast and Furious series, Intial D fanboys and MaximumTune3 (2 was ok.:banana:)

Here's what you need - I'm (seriously) thinking of doing something similar if I ever enter my car into our club display at AutoSalon! It should be a nice little piss-take on all the ricers and "all show, no go" kinds of cars you typically see there - Hyundai Accents, Mitsu Mirages and Honda Civic Breezes with $40,000 paint jobs and white (p)leather interiors.

The only sticker you need is one on the side mirrors which state

"objects in this mirror appear to be losing!"

honestly more brands you've got more you are targeted by criminals, cops and teenagers

accctually funny you should mention that because i saw one the other day it said "objects in mirror are getting further away" never seen them sold...even searched for it...nothing

    • Good to hear. Hopefully you're happy enough not to notice when driving and just enjoy yourself.
    • I mean, most of us just love cars. Doesnt necessarily have to be a skyline.
    • Did you pick up a manual cluster to remove the position indicator?  (Pretty sure the 34 has the gear position in the cluster, but it's been a while)
    • Here is a recipe. Sonic blocks till you get one that has a good enough bore. Get a torque plate and block brace, use your choice of fasteners (arp ect) bolt the thing together empty, half fill it and let it cure. Release it when it has, go to a REPUTABLE RB Builder and get the thing line bored/honed and cylinder honed to size, then wash. Once its all clean and dandy, wash and blow it out again. Then again.  Assemble said engine to your desired clearances with oil control mods, gasket to suit desired CR/Squish ect. Attach your extended sump with proper trap door oil baffles and head drain plumbed to sump with a SUMP BREATHER SYSTEM. Build your front diff with a decent LSD, rebuild your transfer case with a few extra plates, more than likely replace your tailshaft centre bearing and tighten up the rear diff. Tune to minimise excessive midrange cylinder pressure (timing unless you like to split bores and rebuild engines) Enjoy your engine, but hate the fact you are now destroying engine mounts, gearboxes, gearbox mounts, diff output flanges and driveshafts, diff mounts, tailshafts and front CV's.   Disclaimer.... Ive never done any of the aforementioned stuff.......
    • 440s will support well over 400HP on petrol, which is a decent place to be for an RB20. 230+rwkW. Will be a safer bet for idle/low load. 550s would be nice for the extra headroom. I've made the same decision with mine (Neo25). 1000s are probably too big for the Nistuned ECU, so I have some smaller ones.
