Hi Everyone,

I'm relocating from SA to Springfield Lakes. Can you help me with a suggestion of where I should go for a RWC and mod plate?

In another thread I was told my car looked low and that the cops would pull me up straight away. I believe my car is standard height and it's the illusion of the kit that give it the appearance of being low.

Here are the photos I took for the transport company

I can get 2 fingers in between the tires and guard front and rear. Is it too low?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers.

space between guards and tyres is not an issue, as long as the lowest point of your car (including the exhaust just near the diff) is above 100mm

What parts of the car need to be mod plated?

Everything is above 100mm (when checked on level ground)

I have no idea what needs mod plating (because I'm not familiar with your regulations)

My list of mod are:

Secured Apexi pod (not in a box)

z32 AFM

hard suction kit

T04 Turbo

Stainless ext. manifold

Turbo back ext. with hi flow cat etc. Not loud

Manual boost controller (22psi)

FMIC (metal was cut to accommodate the piping to the throttle body)

After market BOV that is 100% recirculating

Q45 Throttle body

Freddy forward facing intake manifold

1000cc injectors

Top feed fuel rail

Turbo smart FPR

Walbro pump

RB20DET ECU with nistune, running E85

permanent wideband lambda, boost, temp gauges to DLP-I08 and Consult

I think that's about it

You will need a mod plate for the turbo at the very least and the hole for the FMIC will probably need to be certed as well, as for the rest I'm not sure. The reo being cut will be a defect if it is found and can't be mod plated.

I know of a mobile mod plate guy on the northside but I'm not sure how far he roams to plate cars. As everyone said keep your SA rego until you have everything up to scratch.

    • Both windows operate normally while the engine is running but start to sag as soon as I switch off.  Does anyone know of reasonably priced replacements or other brands that will fit?
    • Actually PowerFC is probably the easiest to get basic data from, it comes with a hand controller and display so you don't need to remember to pack a laptop every time you drive. It also has a PC based viewing/logging option if required. Nissan used consult on these because back in the mid 80s, ODB was just a glint in a standard's body's eyes.  They switched to OBD shape around 2000 (my 2001 Cima had OBD shaped but not OBD compliant port) With the standard ECU there is a cable and software available to give basic data too, I think it is called Nissan Data Scan or s
    • Given by the sheer number of questions about offset, absolutely not. If you had the information formatted this way: Space from R34 GTT hub to outer arch = 100mm Space from R34 GTT inner hub to nearest suspension arm = 90mm. (making this up) Buying a wheel that was advertised as Enkei RPZ5 Diameter 18in Width 9 Distance to arch = 84mm Distance to suspension arm = 76mm 100% of people would know instantly if it fits. They would absolutely also know instantly how close it fits too, and no questions would need to be asked. You would know you would have 16mm from the guard and 14mm from the suspension arm.
    • Ah ok, for example for the apexi ecu I heard that it's pretty limited with the information it can give you. Also not sure why Nissan used the consult port over the obd2, what the idea there was.
    • Diagnosing with and without is mostly the same. You need to know, as Duncan asked, and what conditions. Car hot, cold, idling, driving, if while driving what rpms, is when you're varying, or is it when held constant.   From there it's understanding what can be causing it. Starting with pretending all of the sensors are correct. Which means if it's going rich, why would it be thinking more air is going in than it is, and under what conditions. So things like if only when under boost, it could be be a loose intake piping joint. It's just understanding the system, and understanding when/how the problem occurs, and then if it's only occuring in specific scenarios, what can be causing it.   ECU specifically, if it's aftermarket, it'll have software you can use, for the Skylines on factory ECU, there is Nissan Consult you can use. Most ECUs have a way to get data from them.
