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.

    • Yes, but it's not as easy as pulling a fuse on anything other than an R32. There's a routine you have to do, involving disconnecting a loom plug and bleeding down the preload.
    • A question for tuning awd, is it possible to disable the AWD? The stagea is an EA/T AWD, Toshi had said on a GTR, he was able to disable it and make it 2wd. Just wanted to double check if this was possible
    • Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.  
    • I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...
    • Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
