Tint that's too dark, a screamer, and 'not too low' but is 100mm.... Which is about the depth that the open class WTAC Winnig gtr runs at....

It's usually the easy to change and obvious things that can't be ignored that are hardest... Like dark tint and low. Surely you get the point after a 'few' different places say the same thing. you're asking someone to risk their operating license.

Sorry what I ment was window tint that is still legal and it is well over 100mm from the lowest point of the car (as apparently that's the rule?) and if I do lift it up change the wheels pull all the adjustable arms out source stock ones and do 100other things there still no doubt going to fail me on the screamer that are things that are a lot harder to change when I'm sure there's someone out there that would sign the car off as it is..

Sometimes those costs have to be factored into the 'cheap' mainland cars unfortunately.

Goodluck.

By the sounds of things, no mechanic would/should sign off on it as is and as stated, they would be risking their License to do so.

Sometimes you just have to play the game. :yes:

Dont just weld the screamer up, if you hit gate you will create all sorts of dramas as the gas will be pushed backward. This could damage the wastegate / turbo.

Get someone to extend it and put two flanges on it, so that it can be recirculated into the dump pipe, and removed. Cost you maybe $100

Oh no no I wasn't thinking of welding it up and if I did block it up I wouldn't even think about going any where near boost like just have it like that to drive to the inspection and drive home but I have a guy that is good with fab so I'll speak to him about plumbing it back in to the exhaust and make it so I can switch between plumb back and. Straight out

Best bet would be to get it plumbed back into the exhaust, I had it done a few months ago on my R32 due to the obnoxious noise when on boost and all the unwanted attention it caused. Cost me $200 to have done.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
