All good I know it's cop bait but I wouldn't of gotten it if I didn't get the exemption, not concerned so much about cops though just insurance and they've said it's all good as long as Vicroads says so. Am loving it more and more everyday, lots of kinks to sort out engine wise though...

All good guys I've learnt my lesson with my first car the VLT, tried to do a loophole in the law and cop's let me off (Insurance was another story), got written off and found not at fault but scared the bajeezus out of me, now I have a work exemption to drive this so insurance is fine with that. Absolutely in love with this car I don't even care about the power it's just the sound for me I think, I've missed intercooled turbo's thats for sure :P Can't wait for a track day! I think what they say is right though you don't really learn until it happens to you or someone close to you, I came close enough for me to re-consider how I drive every second of every day.

Edit: Have realised it's almost a twin of PM-R33 without the carbon mods and such he has.

just curious too know how you were granted an exemption on such a 'typical hoon car' with those modicfications, plates etc...

My understanding was that for a work exemption, something like a v8 ute would in some cases be approved for a job that involves heavy loads etc..

Hook me up with your advans miguelone

They look alright in the photos but really they're in pretty poor condition. Huge guter rash, polished lip is all pitted & they have a bit of paint bubbling from corrosion on the spokes. Still they only cost me $200 though.

There was a set on eBay in the exact same sizes as mine(17x8 +35 17x9 +38) last week but it looks like they're gone now.

Will give you $201 for them :P

*discreet point to my sig@ both dylaan and miguelone*

:D

I'm kicking myself because I know of someone who sold a set with tyres for $400. I'll let you know if I want them when I get my tax money back

    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
    • You must be fun at parties.
