The guy doing my compliance is having trouble finding an engineer to pass my Cefiro. We had one engineer ready to go but he pulled out cause he was moving interstate.

The only things i need to worry about is front mount, steering wheel, bucket seat and a couple of others. Does anyone know of any engineers willing to sign off on those sort of mods?

I spoke to a few engineers when just changing my rego to nsw rego, the only one willing to even take a look at my car was TIC(transport industry consultants) at kirrawee, they were more expensive then the others as they charge per modification they check. But it was done 2 days after i first spoke to them and i had the paper work 2 working days later.. which was worth the extra money in my opinion.

there phone number is 02 95450823

lol, well if you have a lot of mods i wouldnt recommend TIC, i think i paid about 280 to have mine engineered as a standard car(for change of rego), so my certificate doesnt include my mods which were fitted to the car when it was engineered and regoed.

i think cc's engineer sounds far more cost effective if you have mods though,

(when im not at work i can post up a list of $$ per mod to have engineered through TIC which they gave me incase i want to have it done in the future, but it was at a very high cost from memory)

at the time other engineers wouldnt look at my car and i couldnt register on SAU to get some advice so i paid the extra for the convenience...

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
