mikey, driving instuctors can't give yellow stickers, so theres no point taking of the bov, they will act professional, they are there to mark u on how you drive and how you act in real life traffic conditions, they aren't there to fricken pick on you coz u drive an import, i dont really think they will give two tosses about what you drive, just aslong as your indicators brake lights and horn all work :) but if you fail, dont think for one minute it was because you took the skyline, it was probably coz you can't drive for shit :)

Adrian I love you. Very much.

but I think this is bad advice. :thumbdwn:

The people doing the test out and out prefer you to have a driving instructor car because then they have the pedals.

the best advice that I can give is to make the driving instructor know that you are in control of the vehicle, and that they, and everyone else on the road is safe for having you there.

having the wastegate crack and propelling them back in their seat through first and second is a baaad way to make them feel like you're in control. the pssshhhT! at the end would only make it worse.

They have enough other reasons to fail you - like they didnt get any last night, they only got one cup of coffee this morning, or the weetbix had weevils in it when they went to have brekky. there's no need to give them any more.

      Should add all mods on the car are done in my ownership. The car was a 1 owner in Japan and I'm first owner in Aus.

      Thanks GTSBoy. Did BC's so not Japanese coilovers. I've already done all the other points you mentioned besides the seat, I like the factory seats and want to keep original look. Done all the fluids and comp tests etc and all consistent and clean. Well and truly used to the power and car as I've been driving it for a few years as it is now. Contemplating next steps mainly. Preference to remain twins too. @Murray_Calavera Paying for labour.

      Hmm. I don't think it is possible. As soon as you start, you will be on the hook for all the money. $5-10k is enough to make it fragile. Here's the list of things you need to do to make it nice, and driveable. If Japanese coilovers, get them measured and tested, then decide if you're keeping them or replacing them. If low rate springs, then consider big ARBs. If high rate springs, then probably leave stock ARBs. Either way, ad decent end links. Replace and/or upgrade all suspension bushes. That's LCAs front and rear, UCAs & traction arms at rear, caster rods at front. I highly recommend GKTech FUCAs, although the step to spherical joints is a step too far for some people. Rebuild brakes front and rear. This means making sure the calipers are healthy, discs are up to thickness, hoses are replaced with braided. Add good pads and fluid. Investigate wheel bearings all the way around, tie rod ends all the way around, upright bearings at the front, balljoints everywhere. Any of these that are still original are likely to be a bit wibbly nowadays. Bride or Recaro driver's seat, with fairly deep sides. Nice tyres. Street performance wheel alignment. Or track focused, if you're not going to use it on the road. Fluids everywhere if not known to be fresh. Now, learn to drive the car as hard as it will go, before trying to add any power. Save up big $$. $5k is the minimum cost for putting a decent ECU into it. A big single, with manifold, new exhaust, injectors, fuel system upgrade, ignition upgrade, triggering upgrade, etc, is >>$10k. None of that (except the ECU) is a good idea on an old RB. You really should put head studs in it, investigate engine health (compression and leak down, real oil pressure at revs, coolant condition, etc) before even considering adding power. There's nothing sadder than the "I added boost then it shat the bed" thread.

      Are you doing the work yourself or are you paying for labour?
