Epa & Defect Cleared

[trel]

Hey guys, as topic states.

I need to borrow someones stock exhaust and stock rims/tyres to pass an EPA/minor defect, car is an R33 GTS-T.

$$ and/or slab can be arranged?

Absolute bullshit on my tyres though, I run semi-slicks and officer seems to think my tyres are bald! Clearly they are not.

Anyone willing to help please PM or txt me. 0402-552-418.

Cheers,

Evan

If they are not bald then simply drive down with those tyres on there.

If they were legal you wouldn't be asking for tyres, as there is no need

My stock exhaust is still with another sau member on here, otherwise i'd be happy to help Ev.

Might see if I can get it back this weekend, then we can take it from there if you haven't tracked one down before then.

thanks adam. noticed you got rims on your car now... you got the stockies you might be able to lend me?

[Astro Bear]

I made the stupid mistake of selling them! Sholuld never have done it. Unfortunately I can't help you there mate : (

im in point cook, i got some shitty 17s u can pass a rwc with, just remembered 2 of em are at a mates place who is oversease still i think.

r33's arent over db limit from factory on gtr's are. so you will be fine with a stock cat back.

i got exhaust noise test at tidd brothers tomorrrow morning. but 2 ppl have passed with the stock cat back already both got 86db with aftermarket dump pipe/front pipe which is what i have.

pm me if u want i will forget about this thread probably

VicRoads wont care about noise - the EPA is noise.

If i were you i'd be contesting the defect, you are well within your rights to do so.

you could use my stock rims only problem is i currently use them to drive around on as i havent brought new ones! they are legal though, just got my road worthy last friday using them.

[trel]

alr33x, will pm you in a bit for exhaust.

surely someone out there has 4 stockies with good tyres i can use to get vicroads to clear me!

thanks.
