What To Do?

[tonka_18]

Hey guys just want some advice/ ideas on the following mods due to just moving to Vic an not knowing where to get things done.

So I have a 34 sedan gtt and wanting to do the suspension, I was going to go with just a good set of springs and shocks due to being told that coilovers are illegal in Vic. Any know any goo suspension shops in the west?

Also need to do the rest of my exhaust system and was wondering to either get the 3" dump with screamer pipe, 3" bellmouth dump, or 3" split dump?

Any ideas or suggestions greatly appreciated.

Welcome to VIC.

They are legal, keep you ride height above 100mm and you're fine.

Any ideas or suggestions greatly appreciated.

If you want to get raped by the noise authorities and do what you want.

Keep it quiet with a nice flow.

3" turbo back will do you fine.

Ok just that I been told that coilovers are illegal due to being adjustable and affects the safety of the vehicle.

I already have 3" hi flow cat with full 3" system just need to sort out from turbo to cat

Not that I know of but if you want, stick to lowered springs and shocks for a peace of mind.

You mean to say you have a high flow cat and a 3" cat back exhaust...

Coilovers are not illegal, Skylines come with coilovers standard. If you are referring to height adjustable coilovers they are also not illegal. What is illegal, is a ride height being < 100mm at the lowest point of the chassis (including exhaust system).

Screamer pipes on the other hand, are illegal. The legal limit is ~90db and the factory system comes in at ~87db, so almost any aftermarket system leaves you open to EPA defects.

Awesome bud thanx for the info.... So bellmouth dump and springs will do for now.... Next question is do I keep on going with a 4 door project or upgrade to the big brother????

4 Door's are nice (R32 / R34)

ARAB (Mohsen) has had both and now he is building up his R32 4 door.

I'd do a project on one for something different and the do look good when done right.

Do you like 4 doors? If so, then keep going. Personally, I think they look crap but it's your views that matter the most. Just do a good job and you might pull of something special!! And bring it along to some events

[tonka_18]

Actually I do like the four door it does surprise the odd few. Lol just got to stop being lazy and open my laptop up and join sau Vic club.

Not true, adjustable coil overs that can lower the car below legal height are illegal (have only heard of one person being knocked back on an rwc for it) there is a thread or part of a thread on here some where about it, there are only two brands that are legal, i cant remember which ones they are.

That being said the chances of being defected for them on the road is extremely minimal.

Don't buy a 32 4 door their shit.

I reckon four doors looks nice, always wanted one. Especially Ken Nomura's Blitz from D1gp!
