The Defected Thread...

[r33 chris]

no crap, sticks out like dogs balls

[nisskid]

sleepers dont mean shit, if anyone's seen my car it doesnt exactly stick out like dogs balls, but still seen the yellow sticker many times.

[Glavas]

It's not covered in stickers

No GTR spoiler.

When i get it i'll post up some pics of the engine bay, it's unusual looking but very tidy and very stock looking.

Car hasn't got chrome rims, ain't dumped to the ground either.

IMO it looks sporty. Not really RACE like.

If i get defected then it's err...back to stock i guess

Sorry, but it sticks out mate, no matter what way you cut it. I've seen the owner drive that thing around (lives near me) and you can hear him coming a mile away

[SkyHi_33]

yeh dude nothing sleeper about that car at all.

maybe if you got rid of the kit, painted the rims black and returned interior to stock looking than you would have something.

[r33 chris]

the engine bay mate if u know a skyline engine bay there is about 4 things u can notice a mile away.

- oil cooler

-front facing intake plenum

-aftermarket headers

- pod filter

not knocking it at all just making sure u know that (most) cops know them things if they have seen and skyline engine bay.

get a daily

This is going to be the daily.

I got little experience with the RB25, but out of 6 cars I went and saw this one's engine bay looked completely different. If I do buy it I will take pics.

Front facing intake plenum? what is that? :S

And i know pod filters are obvious

Aleks

[scandyflick]

Okay guys. I just read through 18 pages of this.

Is it really as bad as it seems? I'm a P plater currently and will be driving a 33 soon...

if you noticed on some other rb25's they have the cross over pipe that goes across the motor! that's the plenum and cross over pipe! and i've never seen a manifold like that on rb25's before! anyone know what it is? or if it is a r31 manifold?

this is what normally a rb25 stock engine would look like

I attached a photo.

G-ready plenum ? that's what it says on the add.

Also further questions,

Where can I get an emissions test done and what happens if i fail it but am not currently defected?

Cheers,

emissions can be done in a few places. i got mine done at sinergy motor sport buy why do you need it done???

and clean up the engine bay to keeps the cops happy. the cleaner your car is the less chance of having them ream you.

Don't you need to pass an emissions test to engineer mods such as injectors/turbo?

Aleks

[r33 chris]

engineering costs alot man hope u realise that

im fairly surely exhaust mani is GTS-R from an RB20DET-R.

Sadly, I do

im fairly surely exhaust mani is GTS-R from an RB20DET-R.

Is that good or bad? :S

I'm not very mechanically minded...yet.

[scandyflick]

theyre pretty good units, designed to be a bit friendlier to high revs. pretty freakin rare too.

hi, just spent the last couple of hours searching around how to bring an interstate car into SA. Register the vehicle in your name interstate, then here you just transfer it over or take it Sturt for a VIN before the interstate rego runs out.

Now to my question which i couldn't find.........

What would happen if you left the interstate rego plate on full-time and they pulled you over and try to defect your car ? would it get sent to regency or would you have to get inspected in the state that its registered in ?

Technically you live and your car is registered interstate, what is the situation about getting defected interstate ?

pretty sure you cant get defected on interstate plates as its out of their jurisdiction ?

[Madaz]

wrong Mitch doesn't matter where the car is from or going it can still be defected

if an interstate car was defected here you would take it over regency and if it was defected in its home state whilst transporting it here you would just take it over regency also

[heslo]

Yeah, I got defected while still sporting WA plates so it is possible to get done
