Hey Guys,

My Colour Scheme for the Car is Black and Silver. The Parts I need are;

Interior

A Matt Black Steering Wheel.

A Matt Black Dashboard thing.

A Pair of Nice Black Seats (Front).

A Pair of Nice Black Leather Seats (Back).

A Good Speedo (Black, but the dials and everything you get the info off Silver).

Performance

Nice Wheels (Silver).

Good Brakes (Silver Cover).

A Good Muffler (Not sure what size, i've seen post that you can loose speed and compression if it's to big so I need someone to tell me a good type and size).

Exterior

A Nice Body Kid (Black and Silver).

Some Cool Side Skirts (Black).

A good looking Spoiler (Black).

Sound

For Sound I was going to get the below but I'm not sure, can you tell me if it's good.

IVA-W520EBT Stereo- $999.00.

2x SWX-1243D Subwoofer - $1398.00.

lol, Good aspirations, GTT is turbo im assuming ( sorry not a 34 fan at all)

Interior, You will need to get all of that custom,

Wheels, You choice- No one here really cares for big 18" + chromies if htats what your intending,

Brakes- Stock power you will be fine, Get good pads a synth fluid.

Body kit and spolier, Your choice.

Exhaust, Depending if turbo or not- Either way....Just leave it stock.

Really not the project for a 14yr old, Unless you were born with a silver spoon.

Good luck mate ;) Pm me any questions il see what i can do.

@NYTSKY: Thanks.

@Seano350GT: I'm serious.

@sydking: Yeah I knew pretty much all that, sorry I didn't make my self clear in the post. I was suppose to say do you know any websites for customised parts and/or Yes; They are turbo.

Yeah I can on my P's and L's.

But if it is illegal which I don't think it is then I can get an Exemption.

It is Illegal on both of them as far as i am aware in NSW unless something has changed recently which i highly doubt, so before you start painting all your dreams onto paper you are probably best researching the ability to drive such a car..... The people on SAU are generally a wealth of knowledge and very helpful as majority are owners of the cars themselves (like i am), but at 14 you are probably in the wrong place to start posting new threads, its great to see your enthousiasm at such a young age but do your research on the RTA laws then evaluate what you plan to do.

Yes it it illigal, Yuu can only drive it on your L's And NO you wont get an exeption, $1400 fine and 9 months loss of licene is pretty standard for that offecne.

You will only get an exeption if you live in the bush and need to drive a v8 land cruiser ect or your a mechanic and even then its only during work hours. Seriously dont bother with it.

Get a NA or just dirve the turbo and prepare to deal with the boys in blue.

you can only get an exemption if your in QLD and your car has a FACTORY turbo with a power to weight ration of less than 125KW/Tonne..

Which is a R32 GTR.

But yeah like most of these boys said, you've got years and years to go until you end up getting one. Unless your spoilt and your parents buy it for you.

Good old RTA, allow a completely inexperienced driver roll around in a turbo car :ban:

I'm from Sydney myself, i know that.

We have a 210KW power limit on P plates too. But i have no idea why this law was only intruduced in QLD.. now even more people are going to die on our roads from 17 year olds driving turbo'd cars. The law was only introduced January this year from memory, i haven't heard of anyone that's actually got the exemption but i know that you don't need a reason whatsoever.

Congrats, being from Sydney is a definite advantage when it comes to intelligence!

Yes, p platers can drive a 210 kw VE SV6

Now they can also drive a turbo car up to 125kw/tonne

Better run for the hills and never drive again, a car with a turbo is way more dangerous than a corolla hooking through a school zone!

Has the p plate road toll dropped since the introduction of power restrictions? No.

OP, by the time you get your licence, cars will fly but P platers will only be able to drive ground vehicles, their performance won't matter, as they'll be seen as almost obsolete and underwhelming compared to jet cars. Just buy the GTT now in preparation for the next few years.

The places for all of those parts is supercheap and Bob Jane T-marts.

You can buy matte black paint and cool seats from supercheap and there's also sections full of racing steering wheels and gear knobs, they have speakers, too. The most important thing though; is that they stock cannons. Get in ASAP as their cannons never last long. The bigger the better, buy two and stick one on the other side of the car for symmetry.

They have an array of specialty tools and if you have any problems whatsoever, the in house supercheap technicians can help you fit seat covers and offer you advice on which wood screws will hold that heart shaped cannon on best.

Bob Jane is the go to guy if you want high performance 22" rims and grippy nangkangs that will surely get you stepping out at the roundabout D1GP.

    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear 
    • so I need a new speedo cable 
    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
