I thought you were only allowed to go to places to get work done to the car, but you can bullshit can't you?

"Yes officer I'm on my way to get the car tuned, honest."

GR33DyMANGO caught doing 210km/hr in a 60 zone at midnight Saturday night.

See'ya

When you ring up they ask you what movements you need to make, home - workshop - pits - home etc.

You cant drive at night, all road rules apply, only you can drive the car and a few other things they tell you when you phone transport.

I think I needed to get these bloody things 4 or 5 times when I bought my car in:

docks to home

home to pick up comp. plates then home again

home to get comp. work done

comp. workshop to pits then home

gr33dy, is yours the white R33 down at Global?

twas down there today getting my plate stamped on, your car looks nice n clean.

I then went to the pits and failed :) rear tint is too dark and the radius rod bush is leaking oil.. which is what a replaced when i busted up the front from an incident a while back but the piece is obviously faulty, it was second hand so i cant complain.

a new one goes on tonight, aswell as the tint off tomorrow and all should be cool.. *gulp*

Hi Radium,

Nope, the white one with the GTR body kit is mine.. Got it detailed for $100, if anyone is interested. It was so filthy when it got off the boat .. I think it would have been better had I clean it after I got the car over the pit, but I just couldn't look at a dirty white car. :)

Bye

Richard.

Hey Justin,

I got the temp 48 hr permit last weekend and drove it around ... Went passed two or three police cars in town but no one pulled me over. Probably because I was moving like a snail :) ..

Bye

I got pulled over on the way from picking the car up from the trucking yard to home. The guy wasn't worried about the permit ... he didn't like how the front bar was sitting inside the car!

I also drove around the city without plates before I had rego. Cops drove past and didn't care :)

Maybe they see it all the time round the licensing centre.

    • There's no way they left the factory like that. In R chassis there is nothing stopping the steering wheel being put on one spline out from straight, and then adjusting the steering arms to "correct" it (sort of). As well as the indicator cancelling there would also be an issue with how tight you can turn in one direction to the other. The other (less likely) possibility is that the "clock spring" (the circular electronic part that allows the wheel to turn while still having an electrical connection for horn and any other buttons like cruise) might not be in place correctly. I don't have any pics of the R33 (or Stagea) setup but there would be a circular locating tab which sits in the steering column to have it straight...if that is not seated properly then the indicators may not cancel at the right point (and, you might also get a HICAS error since it would think you are driving in circles)
    • It will mostly be bad scoring on the bores, which you can almost certainly fix by machining for oversize pistons. I have to say, I am super surprised that any standard turbos made it 35 years down the track before exploding!
    • Thanks for the info mate was thinking 255/35 rears and 235/40 fronts
    • What's the difference? I would have said that between the front and rear axle lines, there's no noticeable diff between a GTR and an NA 2-door.
    • It will be salvageable. It really doesn't matter what is damaged. Opening up a 30+ year old motor for a rebuild immediately means a complete rebuild of the head anyway. Damaged valves just means an opportunity to put in some nice new ones. And in the modern day, why would you not throw at least a nice set of pistons at something. And if you're doing that, why not rods, and ARP fasteners, and so on.
