Okay so i made a mistake to remove my srs airbag off my car, and i dont want to put back my old one (really bad condition) i drive a R34 skyline (1998) which comes with a airbag which i believe is illegal, if i act dumb and try to say this car came without a airbag, how much would the fine be if i get caught? kinda dont want to throw away my genuine momo wheel i just bought

 

thanks alot 

Hard choice - fancy wheel or potential life saver....having written off a Stagea and walked away with just a scratch because of the seat belts and airbags I would go for something like a GTR (airbag model) wheel.

BTW you can get Momo wheels with airbags.

but i already have made the decision, was asking about the fine behind it. 

Removal of a safety device is a pretty serious offence which will carry points.

It's flat out illegal, you'll fail all Blue and Pink slips and is grounds to be red labeled by police.

You can try the whole "I didn't know" but you'll get done and your car won't be moving, just not worth it.

What do you expect us to know the psyche of all the police in your unknown location? I've been pulled over 3 times this year in a bucket looking Skyline, bucket seat, loudish aftermarket exhaust, fmic, gauges, etc. acted like a reasonable human being and they didn't once even glance at my car. Other people get completely raped. 

Alternatively the fine should be a published number in your states road laws, try doing some research.

Wait i see you're posting in QLD, 1 point $126. The higher costs will be they'll go over your whole car and make a list of defects (which they'll fine you for each non-conformance) then you'll have to have rectified , verified, re-registered, etc.

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
