on Thursdays night i had a few beers down at the pub and so i got my mate to drive my car home that hasn't had a drink..... so i was driving how and we got rbt that came uo as 0 and let us drive of then

we sore the red and blues behind us we pulled over and the police told me that my car hasn't had rego for 20 dayshuh.gif i had a look at the dash and it had expired and since it is my second car i havnt reali looked at the window at the date...

nothing came to my house no renewel papers or reminder so i was in shock..

they made me keep the car on the road over night with my mate with a court notice next month...

then on Saturday morning went to the mechanics to get the car checked over for rego annd i got a list of stuff i have to do to get it pasted eg tires that where not in that bad condition, ball joints on the wheels, horn , bov grrrrrrr

i so my car is stuck at the shop till monday getting charge 450 to get it fixed to get rego

lol that sounds like a horrible weekend...have to be really careful with making sure ur rego is up to date because they will usually always get you for it, even if its just a day over. i assume because you wont have ctp on your car once your rego has expired??

hope ur mate doesn't get in too much trouble anyway.

The positive aspect is that in NSW, an unregistered car can't be defected. :yes:

hahaha well there you go unrego all the way... dat prob y they didnt defect me..

one of the police where pretty nice though i found out he goes to the creek to the skid pan in his 180.. he drove my car

around the corner and i had to warn him its no a sr20 so dont put your foot to far to the ground... it was a good laugh...

well until the highway patrol they called court noticed us hahah

Cleaned out a rental place in another city having been moving over the past few months, we also thought we could do it in 1 day so ended up sleeping on the floor all night with no furniture, pillows etc...

A few years ago I was putting some speakers in my shitty old car, so took mum's camry out to go see some friends in town (in newy). I got rbt'd round 2am when dropping a few of them home, when the officer spotted the rego:

"Are you aware the car is out of rego sir?"

"No officer, it's actually my mum's car... how long out of rego is it?"

Officer looks at her watch, "2 hours" domokun.gif

Hahahaha, after a long chat with her supervisor they decided to let me go.

I'm a bit confused, did you get tickets for being unregistered or did they give you a little piece of paper saying you must attend court on a certain date? If it was the latter why did they do that? Have you had this happen to you more than once before? (Or more specifically your mate who was driving)

edit: My weekend sucked, I worked!

yes there was no fine for it just given a letter of a court date for next month & why your ask they did this... my opinion it was more aimed at my mate

      There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)

      What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).

      Custom titanium intake

      By Sleepergm · Posted

      No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here.

      I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
