R33 won't be listed down as a hi-po car at Vic Roads. Only OZ delivered cars. so R32 GTR will be there.

I thought R33's were 187kw at the fly and 1360kg kerb weight?

Did the po po tell you, you were 6kw's over? And show some figures etc?

put a metal plate over the air intake with 19 10mm holes drilled in it...

Yes it goes off factory power rating for the R33 GTS25t, you cant light put lead in the back of your car or anything to weigh it down and you can't detune it.

i had my car detuned for 1.5 years and nothing happened to me... if the car is under the power to weight they really cant do anything to you,... prove it on the dyno with the plate in and there is really nothing they can do to u...

125kw per tonne is the rule,.. if your under that your fine.

damn sorry to hear about that raz,

i was at knox last month with kong and pettet pulled me over searched and stuff as well. i got threatened that my car was illegal for a p-plater, but he let us go, coz we were being nice. as far as i knew 32's were okay, but i asked him and apparently not anymore... not sure how but he didn't manage to find anything to epa me for... phew...

they had some big huge scary black book which they took out when they pulled me over about power to weight. when i saw the book i thought i was gone... but i'm guessing it has all the specs they need, and as long as the officer thinks your in the bad, he can fine you. hate how the system works...

yeah, just lay a hot sh*t on his face. i saw him follow me in from burwood highway... apparently knows his stuff about cars... but he interogatted me and my friend in a dc2r about having nos. im pretty sure its obvious if the car has nos.

hey raz, did he let you drive home after he busted you? coz apparently sometimes they don't...

well he doesnt know much about the R32 GTST then because theyre 124.03kw or thereabouts so next time he pulls u over and threatens u like that coco tell him its under by .969kw and he needs to work out his math a little better and **** off back to pigville.... well dont quite tell him like that :D

thats actually a very conservative figure seeing as the weight from factory is actually a lot lighter than the car really is (1290kgs) the car would be more likely to be in the low to mid 1300s

I'll give you the tip boys it goes off factory specs. You could unbolt your turbo, get a 5mm exhaust and run the car offJohnny Walker and they would still say it is illegal.

Not to make you scared or anything but driving a restricicted car is a court going offence. (I checked with the legal dept at my work today)

yeah he showd me his big book of cars and stuff, did the stuff infront of me. my car is 1398kg's and puttin out 184kw, which makes it 131kw/tonne, 6kw over. pain in da arse man

hey raz, did he let you drive home after he busted you? coz apparently sometimes they don't...

yeah he let me drive away, which i was happy about. technically they not supposed to though. he didn't really tell me when i had to stop driving, he kinda hinted to me just not to drive in knox heh. how come they didn't say anythin bout your engine when u got pulled over? coz he told me the r32's wid rb25's are illegal, the legal ones are the rb20's

which brings me back to my origional question, will they accecpt a dyno sheet or somethin?

yer only if they feel u are doing it to rebel against the law though right?

yeah i know wat u are sayin, but they check the engine and stuff

like when i got pulled, i had to open my bonnet and all that stuff. true if i put a gtr engine in my gtst its still a gtst....but when he looks at a rb26 he is gonna know its a rb26 and not a 25 heh

    • Looking at finally painting and installing my R32 GTR wing I bought back in 2018. I got two quotes: Quote 1: $880 includes: wing, spare boot, holes welded up prep/paint. Pro: full boot with wing AND hole-less boot with lip i can swap between Con: $$  Quote 2: $330 wing only. Pro: cheaper Con: lose my (relatively) rare no holes sedan boot Also to consider I do plan on painting my whole car at some point "soon" (been saying that since 2018) Anyway Enjoy these All Japan Day 2025 pictures of my 4 door, still rocking the Calsonic Livery! Rolling in Interior shot Matching Peer Pressure Racing overalls are pretty cute ngl. This year was a hard 1990 cut so I got to be over with all the older cool stuff Next to arguably the best car there. A mighty S-Cargo
    • I personally would run 2x from the cam covers into the catch can, 1x sump vent to catch can (would mount this at a low point of the catch can, so it can also act as a drain). I would see if you can run a -12AN down there to improve venting and also draining. The head drain thing, just drain that back to the sump on the other side. Catch can to be vented, unless you plumb or back to the intake.
    • Yeah the head "drain" is rather a sump/crank case vent. My catch can stopped filling up after venting the sump to the catch can. I have 4x fittings in mine, which is about 5Ls. 2x cam, 1x sump vent/catch can drain, 1x fitting back to the intake and a massive breather which can be blocked so it's a fully sealed system.
    • Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.
    • Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4
