Isn't it comforting to know that, when you arrive home, put your favourite performance car to bed, put your feet up on the coffee table with a drink in one hand and the keyboard in the other, that you can then take leisure time (logged on to SAU) to

i) COP S#/T FROM UR MATES who are kind enough to say what they think

ii) let off your own steam

iii) find 1 out of 10 that can relate to your anger/frustration and then...

Go off to sleep dreaming of Whiskies Tangos Foxtrots :P

i havent looked for any written rule, or even read the rules lol. but here's my understanding. any intake mod messes with the factory emissions setup. so deviation from this could possibly deem the vehicle emissions unfriendly.

on another note. when driving the gf's lancer, i have, on occasion, gunned it in view of police officers. they dont even bat an eyelid. same with the rav4. probably more so. but i'm not stupid enough to do that in the skyline. you gotta drive accordingly.

This may be out of line but it has the same fundamentals as 50's America when they were not so nice to african american people.

"i.e." singling out 1 specific kind of person (African American ) / car (Skyline) with the proviso that they are committing a crime when they may be just sitting there minding there own biz.

Lions also wait for the weak and young

police are racist as by my equation listed above

racism is not o.k im my books need a sleep

I think the word you're looking for is prejudiced... not racist. Unless someone bred with a skyline and created a new race? :P

The other side of pods is the increased induction noise - ie illegal based on emission of noise laws.

from what ive seen harleys must be exempt ?

The old man has quite a few biker mates and they just glide by the police at 150Db's and nothing happens..............imagine a bunch of skylines with pods and 3 inch exsausts humming past the cops?

id put $$ on the imports getting pulled over while the bikers go and party on

That's a fallacy. Cars have 90Db to play with, and the induction noise is nowhere near that. Not even the Gas2JZ goes anywhere near that amount...

I've been looking for a written rule as to why pod filters are illegal for about 6 months now...

haven't found it yet...

PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT OPERATIONS (NOISE CONTROL) REGULATION 2008

Try Clauses 13 and 20 (It took me 2 minutes to find.

Then go to decc.nsw.gov.au

As for driving in Lapa.

Have you got a fog light ticket anywhere else.

Maybe it's a hint. Don't go to Lapa on a Sunday night because you are lucky it's only the cops giving you a $81 ticket rather than the locals torching your car.

That still doesn't satisfy me. It mentions engine noise level, and unless that has it's own rating (can't find it) then there is still 90Db to play with...

but to be bad wouldn't the extra noise have to surpass 90db???? i know for sure my sneezing sound doesn't get that loud, its as loud as a normal person sneezing

      I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
