Hi guys, Today i tryed to re-rego my car and failed, so i called up the rta and asked why, btw i did get sent to the EPA inspection station located in East Roseville behind the caltex before the Roseville bridge. But i passed and my exhaust was fine.

After speaking to the rta, i was informed i had an outstanding defect but i just couldnt figure out what it could be, i rang up the station where i had my skyline inspected and they said apparently the nose reducer on my 100% complete standard exhaust system and muffler was a defect?.

Baically that is bs right up, the r33 stock exhausts all come with a stock built it nose reducer, but the weird thing is the first time i was defected the car passed, but this time the guy from last times parnter did it, he goes buy the name of Kevin, he decided it would be a good idea to make up this bullshit excuse that apparently this isnt stock on skyline.

After a while i couldnt be bothered arguing with the guy, soo i take my car to my mechanic who and the documents and ask him to call this f&*kwit to see if he can talk any sense into him.

So i come back to pick my car up today and my mechanic said straight up "hes a f*&king idiot" its a stock part of this car and its not doing shit anyway, basically hes trying to stinge more money outta me and make up bs to make my life more of a c*&nt. Basically i have beem frauded by the EPA spection garage at East Roseville.

In the end its not worth arguing, but im still pissed i have to pay the 60 dollar inspection fee when its this dumbC*&nt Mechanic doesnt no what an exhaust looks like.

So if anyone lives on the northern beaches or north shore, and u have been defected by epa, DO NOT take ur car to East Roseville inspection station, and stay away from a shithead called kevin.

THANK YOU

Couldn't understand most of your post, but if the silencer is removable, it is not legal. must be a permanant silencer.

Also, slandering a company is against forum rules.

ya that was my first thought aswell, but he doesnt say who the mechanic was or the company of the dodgy mechanic....

As for roseville epa comments.... yeah its borderline from what i can understand of his comments

yah he means the butterfly valve that opens depending on rpm or throttle position, i forgets which one

definitely stock kit on r33 exhaust or possibly a factory option? oem either way

my old r33 came with a stockie exhaust, 93 model series 1, twin tip & the butterfly valve was only on the one tip from memory, designed to open up depending on revs or throttle position(forget which one), like I said it's possible it might have been a factory option or changed in later models

      Potential MAP Reference Point

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Getting a decent signal from all 6 throats is a challenge. I don't know for sure, but I suspect that the stock balance tube is not ideal for it. I have done it on an ALFA 4 cylinder (about 35 years ago, so don't ask for too many details). We drilled 4x holes in the manifold runners, put in some fittings and ran hoses to a decent sized (I think it was about 20mm diameter) pipe that ran the length of the inlet manifold. So, it was quite a decent volume. There is a "tuning" balance to be found between the volume of the common plenum on such a thing and the diameter of the pipes running from it to the runners. You need the volume to be large enough to damp out the sharp spikes in pressure signal you get as each runner gets sucked on by its cylinder, but not so large that it becomes too slow to respond to actual changes in MAP. And you need the hoses to be small enough to transmit the signal quickly, but not so small that they delay the signal. You might have to have more than one go at it, if there isn't any actual success based wisdom to be had here. Hopefully there is. Anyway, I would not do it on only a couple of cylinders. I would also not care about "permanently modifying a part". Just bloody drill holes and make stuff better. There is nothing sacred about any GTR unless it is a genuine museum piece that you shouldn't be modifying at all anyway.

      R34 GTT front hood lip

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      The strange thing is this is a URAS front bumper (or clone of it). The bumper actually does not sit flush with the GTT hood - You need the addon to make the hood 'long' enough to reach the bumper. I have no idea why they didn't incorporate this piece into the bumper itself.. instead of sticking it to the hood instead.

      R34 GTT front hood lip

      Another thought on this OLD topic: When you paint your bonnet lip, leave a small unpainted back lip/line along the back of the lip, where it rests on the bumper. That way, the line in the back is much more prominent than the gaps in the front/under the lip - and it breaks the hood-to-bumper connection at the "correct" place, when comparing to a GTR. I'm gonna do this with mine this week, so stay tuned for pics!

      Potential MAP Reference Point

      By Radical_Goodspeed · Posted

      So I'm in the final stages of assembling my single turbo RB30/26 and had a question regarding MAP reference points.  I've seen several recommendations such as tapping the cylinder 2/3 ITB, tapping the intake manifold at cylinder 2/3, or using a point on IAC. First two are doable but require permanently modify part and the third is "out" as I plan to delete the IAC.  All that to say my question is can I used the "bleeder" in the center of the ballance tube as a MAP Reference? I'm running a catch can so I don't need it for the PCV system. My thought process is it "pulls" from all 6 cylinder, and it's between the ITB and the cylinders making it ideal for MAP reference according to what I can find. Thoughts?
