What a great start to the new years.

Defected this morning for:

- EBC

- Non Standard Air Filter (covered)

Classed as "Major Defect".

First Officer pulled me over, me driving normally not making a noise, requested license and jump out then said to pop my bonnet. He looked around found the boost solenoid but wasnt too sure, saw the airbox told me to take it off so he could see the air filter but the pod filter/airbox is fitted down tightly cant remove without tools. He calls in for a second Officer, guess who - Officer Neil! He came and looked into the engine bay straight away saw the boost solenoid and said theres a controller somewhere in the cabin - that was it. He said the air filter is fine aslong as its mounted securely but the first Officer defected it for being non standard air filter and being covered.

Thats F@$KED UP!!! if i were you i would remove the EBC and take it to a local cop shop (not the Port Adelaide one) and tell them about the air filter and they may take the defect off for you, and try to do it today if you can, its worth a try.

Sorry to hear VU your car is seriously clean, goes to show it doesn't matter what condish your car is in only needs to be an import. What size boost solenoid are you running Dual Stage Blitz? Officer Neil strikes again what a legend :(

GReddy Profec B Spec II

Officer Neil was the nice one out of the two. The other guy was a good cop too but I think he'd already made up his mind to defect as soon as he saw the Skyline drive past to be calling in Officer Neil to confirm what to defect.

I know of a bloke running a Gizzmo IBC EBC and the actuator is quite compact and easy to put in an appropriate area out of the way. I will keep my thoughts on officers pulling people over for no good reason to myself me thinks.

I was going fishing around 6am this morn. on grand junction. see a cop come out of hanson. i turn of down a street. I come back out and notice this officer has done a U turn.

He saw me from 34534 kms away.

Anyway he was on the other side of the road this time and just looked at me and kept going.

has anyone ever been thru regency with braided oil and water lines? any solutions to fix them? please get back to me.

get rid of them? lol

was thinking u could probs wrap the lines in some insulation so they didnt stick out, that or some high temp tape etc.

that SUCKS vu, seriously. maybe since the cops dont defect dogshit looking 1980's cars with black smoke popping out at random times we should follow the UK wank factor of applying the "rat-look" to our cars...

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
    • I dunno what the "best" one is....but when my 040 died late last year, after about 20 years of screaming service....I put in a 255. Like any such thing, you have to finagle it a little bit - it's not a no-brain swap. But it's not hard.
