VSB - 14

Open document and scroll down to a PDF link entitled: Section LA - Engine. This is TMR legal mandate for modifying cars/engines etc in QLD.

They also explain at the bottom why P1 and P2 are in their mind limited to non- high powered vehicles.

You've disproved your argument right there. It clearly states that if an engine that is 120% (or more) powerful than the factory fitted option, certification is required. RB25DE = 200hp RB25DET = 250hp. Clear difference that is greater than 20%.

I was actually talking about NSW. I posted above for others to view after looking into qld for you. I can read :whistling:

Dot point 2 of clause 1.1 leaves some scope for argument. I went to conference about all of this and they are seeking to nationalise. It can be done in QLD, but may require certification depending on precedent about aforementioned point.

8.1?

Who do you work for any how long have you been planning?

Brookfield Multiplex I'm a site engineer though not a planner i just do all the programming for my zones. Only use p6 for the contract stuff all my other ones are on suretrak 3. Been doing it for about 3 years.

Who do you work for?

For the record - looked up law for you after my initial posts. TMR don't make the laws, they simply interpret them and most importantly these laws are constantly changing. Law never stays still.

I never expressed an opinion on whether it could or couldn't be done. Simply posted the relevant section where all answers are found for Qld. I was trying to be helpful.

However, there is the above clause and section to seek an engineer's opinion on.

Who do you work for?

Ah I see. I've worked for Downer EDI (engineering arm) for about 8 nearly 9 years (5 as a planner), then BMA/BHP as a senior project controller, now I work for a consultant company, currently working on TMR flood portfolio

Sup All, need less sand in vagina's in here.

Can you do it...yes

can you legally do it...maybe

can you do it on the sly...yes

can you get away with it...not likely

All sorted now on to important things.

Early day, and Telstra issues resolved quick smart. Best indian call center person I've ever encountered. A little hard to understand but very helpful, and actually listened and agreed......crazy world

it is only a matter of time Bodo before call centers and the like become more effective and efficient.........and then charge just as much (if not more) than if it were performed in Australia.

will be happy days?

Just don't go shoehorning a 911 NOS fed turbo engine in there :)

    • Following from this in a related by not closely-related sense... Because I was buying a bunch of other GKTech stuff, I got some rear subframe collars. The history that leads up to this is: 25+ years ago the car arrived into the country with stock subframe bushes. At some point shortly thereafter I added Whiteline pineapple rings, set up neutral, and it improved the rear end behaviour. Well, it is my vague memory that I was happier with it with them in. Less axle tramp on launches, generally better, etc etc. ~2012 it got a new non-HICAS subframe with new stock bushes. No pineapple rings. I reckon that ever since then I've been dissatisfied with the axle tramp. Recently I've been f**king around a lot with all aspects of the suspension. One contemplation has been to relocate the rear lower control arm front mount points (and do the other things needed to make that work) to improve longitudinal rear grip by getting rid of some of the stupid anti-squat that Nissan ladled into the R32. But.... before doing that I thought I'd put some collars in. And.... The collars are good. The rear sounds a little bit different, but there has been no significant increase in NVH coming up into the body. In terms of rear behaviour - expansion joints on long sweeping elevated freeway ramps that would sometimes cause the rear to jiggle around a bit, no longer seem to do so. It appears that jamming chunks of metal into the gaps in the rubber so they can't move much is a really good thing. And the launch behaviour and general forward traction situation seems to be greatly improved too. It's impossible to be really sure, because the tyres are completely shagged - they are freakishly willing to let go right now. But as an A-B test with the same tyres it certainly seems to grip up a lot better. Highly recommended to anyone who still has stock bushes.
    • Bit off topic maybe but has anyone had a crack at one of those aftermarket electric compressors ? Bit of a search came up with one put out by Speedy Air Spares. Looks interesting and looks as if you'd have to run a big arse alternator. Found this out after the fact as my air con compressor packed it in and soon after my alternator ! !
    • Yes. Needs new ports. Usually just achieved by screwing an adapter onto them. Be aware that any AC compressor that hasn't been used in a long time will very likely have dried out seals and will not hold gas. Oh, and obviously you will require a new receiver-dryer also.
    • Can you covert an R32's AC from r12 to r134 if the compressor/hoses etc are still all good? Pretty sure on my car the AC was degassed when it was imported  to remove the naughty r12 and save the ozone layer, and the fancy climate control system just blew air around. Was happy to drive the car with windows down back then, but now I am old and need to be kept cool
    • Just to circle back here, I've sold my automatic trans to another Stagea owner in OH.
