majority of cars on the road dont have stock rims do they? but pits can tell u to put stock ones on to pass..

my experience: the guy at the pits said to me i need permits and then goes on to tell me there is a 2 month waiting list.

meaning: if i dont put it back to stock, by the time i get permits and fix a few other things, high chance car would be un registered.

not all mod's are 'illegal' per say, u just need permits and depending on which inspector u talk too, they will tell you some police officers will hand out yellow stickers wether u have permits or not.

in saying that, now yellow sticker is off im looking into getting some permits - the way i see it, the engineers should be a bit happier to give me permits without a yellow sticker on my window :banana:

Got a set of stock R32 wheels with pirellis and a set of R34 stock wheels with Ling Longs at the shop Tim :(

Ahh wicked man, if I could borrow a set of those sometime next week it'd make my life so so so much easier.

Also Pal by springs do you mean you've got the whole suspension unit/thing or just the springs? Since I've got a set of stock suspension with lowering springs but I'm looking for the most stock suspension I can possibly find after today's "you are not allowed hard suspension" talk from the pits. Or, if you've just got springs man, my old suspension's preeeeetty useless so I'd be happy to donate my bits to form an entirely stock set of coilovers for people to borrow =]

Cheers,

Tim

Oh ok cool Pal could I borrow your springs then man? Since lowering springs=fail...

Also will you want to hold onto anything of mine while I've got 'em? Since I mean... You could in theory have my coilovers, but that'd mean I'd have to change it all over pretty much on your driveway.

^^ dont make much sense dude

set of 17/18's? what on? an r32? why do u think ppl ask for stock rims? u cant always pass pits with rims to big/too wide.

also if ur worried about rim size for exhaust clearance, ur car is too low.

my coilovers wound up are higher then standard items and exhaust is the only issue, because of its poorly made design its sits low. all good for flow etc. but it just sits way to low. if i could afford another catback exhaust id more then happy throw money at people to do this.. but i simply dont at this time being unemployed and let off from my apprenticeship..

I have a 2.75" catback off my 32 that is lying around doing nothing. Welcome to see if it sits any higher.

Aslong as you bring it back.. UNLIKE THE GUY I LENT MY FRONT BAR TO :)

i see what u mean as i saw u few days ago and ur car was so low the exhaust was sparking as u were driving down the road :happy:

my teins also can go higher than stock, but they fail u on anything that is adjsutable that wasnt adjsutable factory, soooo (depending how nice the inspector is) adjustable coilovers prob wont pass dude, if u want to borrow full set of stock r32 ones let me know.

      Power steering pump r32

      By waxracing · Posted

      Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on

      You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump.

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By DatsunBanana · Posted

      Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By MR51MN · Posted

      Cheers, yeah it was recently imported, is the actual Nissan not an Infiniti so will have to do some chasing around for parts.    Any ideas if the side skirts from a Q50 would fit on the 400r?
