The Defected Thread...

[cheegar]

2530 off, fmic is ok if you haven't cut into the reo bar, or chassis, and it is secure, secured pod is fine as long as it is secured tight, 3'' exhaust will probably have to go as it will be too loud, power fc will have to go, for safety sake the boost guage will have to go, as it is probably in the line of sight, 555's regency may just pick on, fuel pump is ok, afm will need to change as you will be taking out the power fc, boost tee has to go, and nardi steering wheel probably isnt ADR compliant so that has to go.

Good luck!

Aww man thats the biggest headf**k ever

can the power fc controller just be removed and the ecu left alone or does the whole thing have to come out?

defects suck (N)

[Damo_R34]

of all the stuff you have to remove, power fc is the easiest thing haha.

will a s2 turbo pass through regency or will it need to be the s1 r33 turbo?

quick question, dump pipes allowed?

mate just went through with his 3" dump pipe and cat on, but with a factory system from the cat??

you can go through with a full zorst as long as it is under the legal DB limit......i went through with mine just had it quietened down and presto.....so the exhaust size doesnt matter...

I think your series 2 turbo should pass fine as they look identical externally and it is a factory Nissan part. But make sure all factory boost lines are in stock positions and you are not running any bleed valves or T pieces or ebc. Just run the factory boost solenoid wired on standard mode not on high boost mode all the time. And all should be sweet!! good luck

They dont take the cover of the ECU to see if its stock. but they do now look for holes for the hand controller. thats how they got me last time I went through. If they find that they automatically think you have a Z32

injectors will have to come out as the stock ecu cant run them.. unless u get a remap but thats $500

OR you could try putting your stock ecu cover over the top ond the power fc one and try your luck.. then afm, injectors can stay in..

they may or maynot check it..

i have been through MANY times and not even checked the ecu!

[gun_33]

when i took my skyline through, i had my high flow on there with no heat shroud.. fmic full 3" tien high adjust AND PASSED!

they arent that picky.. they just check if roadworthy mainly unless suspicion of engine mods

Rang up today to book my car into regency and was told that a new place at Lonsdale is opening up to clear defects on Wednesday's and Thursday's so i've got my car booked in for next Wednesday. Hopefully the guys who work there are chill.

Yeah def let us know how it goes!

Us down south need a place this way to get us off defect!

Hey, im taking my down to Sinergy for a pre inspection, but the rego has run out. Do i have to get a permit to drive it there or should i be fine.

[Damo_R34]

if you're thinking of driving it there unregistered, i hope you carry a spare jar of vaseline with you.

Yep you definitely need a permit mate.....just do it on the day of your inspection and get the permit to go to sinergy first then to regency and back home .....if not the refer to VVVV

Just a quick question will a vg30 turbo pass regency as i really dont plan on doing this all again and rather have a hiflowed vg30 as opposed to a 2530?

Cheers, Chris

[MissR34]

Yep it should pass without a problem mate....its a Nissan OEM part so not defectable....one would assume...

Nissan OEM parts are not illegal to have
