That is very kind of you Volk, ill defiantly keep you in mind if i get defected. Thanks again.

i was done on the night i got my skyline( with my p plates) was done at the bay for fog lights my turbo timer and boost gauge where nicely lite up blue and clearly visable and the cop even looked at it but decided to give me a warning. not saying anything about the mysterious blue light, i was amazed once they left i noticed they parked about 50meters away asif waiting for me

all in all very lucky

Just got out of Regency - went by quite nicely I must say. The guy wasnt too thorough and was quite friendly. Even had a couple other inspectors pop over to checks out the GTR and even asked a few questions... one of them about the baseball bat in the back seat which is a steering wheel lock in the shape of one lol

Failed for R/H and L/H front top control arm bushes - understandable, the wheels wobbled like they were going to fall off haha

steering back boot split - easy fix

No defect issued and only the failed items will be re-checked.

Hopefully Boostworx comes through with the goods tomorrow as they said so I can fit them up for my re-inspection on Friday!

If not Auto Parts Professionals can get them in that day for you. They got front upper inner and outer nolathane R32 GTS-T bushes in that day when I called up, took about 4 hours for them to get delivered, not to mention they were cheaper than anyone else I called.

They are on main north road next door to city dismantlers and their number is 8260 2044

Had the re-inspection today... passed but this inspector discovered a couple things the previous inspector didnt but because it is a re-inspection he couldnt add more things to the list to send me away again so he passed me. I replaced the bushings on the upper control arm as told but there was still play in the front driver's side and it was coming from the knuckle ball joint thing... and it had un-tagged braided brake lines(non-ADR approved).

That was good of them to not make you come back. I've heard stories of being going back 3-4x

I had a similar issue where they noticed play in the wheel, put it down as wheel bearings but it was in fact hicas arms, was lucky the mechanic picked it up.

Had my car defected tonight at the new Gepps Cross Shopping Centre, was a car cruise, was doing nothing silly, cops swarmed in and went over everyones cars. I got done for a Boost controller unit that isn't even plumbed up/connected or anything, exhuast too loud, exhaust flap silencer, ride height 20mm under legal height on rear, front was ok, coilover suspension, pod filter. Total $681 fine, but because i have the car registered with 2 names between me and another member in my family as joint drivers, the officer tells me they will also receive a $681 fine. Thats rediculous i say. So here it goes to get the car ready to go through regency, anyone got anyways to help me out. Much appreciated

$681!!! what the f**k since when is getting defected a fine able offence?

Im dumbfounded. I would fight this in the court. Theres no way they can make two people pay the same price for the one minor offence.

-D

    • Pre-empting heat management  1. The Kraken manifold will be ceramic coated 2. Just purchased some peel and stick heat shielding stuff from car builders, I'll cover some of the firewall behind the dump and a little on the cam cover, this will be done prior to installation as I have ample room to get where I need to now before that realestate has more bits in the way, I'm also planning to modify the OEM heat shield to go back on, but that won't happen until after installation so I know where to hack it up, I'll also cover it with some some peel and stick to neaten it up after the hacking 3. As the dump is stainless with a flex joint coating isn't really a option, and wrapping isn't recommended for a stainless dump, so once it is installed I'll grab some shielding from car builders to cover the dump, as it has some stand off, it "shouldn't" cause any issues and it "should" just keep the radiant heat away from " melty engine bay stuff" Not for heat management, but I've grabbed some more black crinkle coat to paint all the shiny intake pipes, I'll pick the pipe work up prior to installation and use the paint booth and big oven at work to cure them, I'll then wrap them with some bubble wrap so they stay nice during installation

    • YO- have been searching and searching for an a31 chassis plug pinout, or someone who knows which wire is for tach.  ceffy was flooded past dash during a hurricane.  having an electrical gremlin appear. tach is wonky reading consistent with a short, and on occasion the right side of my speedo lighting will flicker just for a second then go back to normal.  if no pinout available does anyone know if the tach harness opens or branches anywhere behind the dash? im suspecting a possible root behind the radio as there are more shorts in that area on the accessory loop.
    • Means something is not set up right, tune/calibration related.  
    • Finally replaced the previous temporary mesh indicator surrounds (temporary was the last 10+ years 😂) with a 3D printed GTR style version for the front indicators. I think it looks a lot nicer than the old setup and at least the indicators now point in the correct direction rather than angled off. Needed a little bit of tweaking to deal with the intercooler piping but got there in the end. Old and new photos below.
