My opinion, get it decibel and emissions tested and an engineers certificate stating the same and give it a shake in court yourself. If you want I will check with work and see what they will try and win with and see if it can be counter attacked. If you lose they only bump the fine up about $50.00. If you get a lawyer and win then you get court costs awarded to you. If you win you can keep the documentation and present it whenever you are pulled over and that will stop future occurrences. Hope it helps. Cheers Imtorqing

Hi Guy's, As per the title I need a Series 1 Coil for tomorrow. Redcliffe Dyno just informed me that one of mine melted(Apparently it was faulty???). If you can help, can you either PM me or call 0422886721. I live on the southside near Brownsplains will pick up. Cheers Bill(Imtorqing)

That price is about right but as dantheman says what is the excess. I fell off my chair when they told me what the excess was when I got a quote. The only problem with Just Car is they are annual prices too not pay by the month so you have to pay that up front. Im going with Vigil insurance(Sponsor on Calaisturbo.com) who do pay by the month (Im 29 though). With the prices they ask which is all business unfortunately there is a lot of young guys with nice cars and no insurance. A story my dad told me was when XU1's were brand new he was only 18 or so and working as a labourer. I think they were about 20g's and he almost bought one until he checked out insurance. They wanted the equivelent of the car per year(NO SHIT). He told the salesman to stick it and walked out. Anyway as I get older I seem to ramble on a bit. Good luck with your insurance. You will need a personal loan just to pay for your insurance. Cheers Imtorqing

You can ask for a lawyer any time whether criminal or traffic related. UNDERSTAND this does not get you out of a ticket or in the case of criminal stop you from being arrested and charged. IF THEY MAKE A MISTAKE ON YOUR TICKET(Put one L instead of two L's for allan etc this does not get you out of a ticket. In Qld anyway they will cancel that ticket and then send you a fresh one without the mistakes.) Tickets are given based on what the officer has seen and most of time 99% they dont need admissions from you to give you one. I have heard traffic police brag that they could give a ticket to anyone ! as you can basically cop a defect from the factory for a lot of things. If you looked at all the offences police can issue you would not believe it. Best practice when you get pulled over ; 1. Be POLITE (If they are Traffic Officers you have basically zero to .0000000001% chance of being let off anyway and your dignity is worth more than acting like a toss). Being a wanker will only result in a ticket and they will investigate further usually finding as many as they can give you to get better satisfaction). I am sure there are a few on here that have copped one small ticket and knew that they could have copped more. One of my mates the other day copped one for learner unaccompanied and knew he was lucky not to cop the one for not having his L plates on his car and he didnt have his L's on him which is another 150 bucks(Which the copper told him). REMEMBER THAT IGNORANCE OF THE LAW IS NO DEFENCE AS ONCE YOU PASS YOUR DRIVERS LICENCE YOU ARE "EXPECTED(However fair you think it is)" TO KNOW EVERY RULE IN THE BOOK. You cannot do u turns at intersections with lights where it 1. does not have a sign stating that you can. 2. has a sign stating that you can't. If police call you a dickhead you can ; 1. Do nothing about it or B make a complaint (Dont expect much). Another thing is if you are modding your car - unless you are some type of IDIOT that is paying someone to do crap to your car but dont realise what they are doing(Wont save you a ticket anyway). YOU should be aware that you are driving a defective vehicle ie loud blow off valves that are not plumbed back, loud exhausts with no Cat, running screamer pipes venting to the atmo, running no plumb back on your wastegate, non boxed in pod filter etc etc then when you get pulled over traffic police will rub their hands with glee as you have just made there day. Dont come onto forums and whinge about cops harrassing you as you may as well had a big sticker saying "F%$ the police" on your car. TO RB FIRE. Police do their bit to try and get your car back. They record the car as stolen and you will get a call if they find it which sometimes is police find in during a raid at some drug dealers house or someone finally calls it in after seeing your car parked out the front of their house for the past month. Knowing video surveillance in an RSL Carpark I can almost guarantee that it was absolute crap as they could see a white guy wearing a white shirt breaking into your car. I hope that you had a steering lock and alarm atleast on your ZX and especially now on your skyline because they go walking very easily. If you dont then you need your head checked. Satelite tracking is becoming cheaper with 1100 installed for Car Minder and 1800 for NAVMAN. People will spend 25 grand doing shit to their car to make it go faster but wont spend any of it making it more secure. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR TO MZR33 and others like him - If you are about to lose your licence because of your current ticket let them know(POLICE) straight up but have some dignity about it. Dont go making a specticle of yourself and start crying and shit or show some bust as some women do to try and get out of it. Some coppers may give you another chance but if they dont, dont make out that all coppers are mongrels as You have obviously done some stupid shit to get to the point where you are as you are about to lose your licence. YOUR LICENCE IS A PRIVILEDGE THAT SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN FOR GRANTED MAYBE I AM GETTING OLD OR SOMETHING BUT Anyway thats my 2 cents. Cheers Imtorqing

Guy's, If you have the money you should buy this. I am sitting here kicking myself in the balls as I was given bad advice and am now stuck trying to finish off my RB25/30 Combo . I can tell you I have spent more on my engine than you will pay for this. It is a bloody steal. F$#@ F$#@F$#@F$#@F$#@F$#@F$#@F$#@F$#@F$#@F$#@F$#@F$#@!!!!!!!! ANYWAY GOOD LUCK WITH THE SALE AS THIS WILL DEFINATELY GO IF ONLY I HAD SEEN IT IN NOVEMBER LAST YEAR Cheers Imtorqing

Chasing a set of RB25 Coil Pack leads. Will pay postage to Brisbane. Cheers Imtorqing

Hi guy's, I can see heaps of coil packs for sale but I am chasing the wiring loom that runs from the coil packs on an RB25(1 with a push plug not metal circlip) preferably in Brisbane but will pay for postage. Cheers Imtorqing

My mechanic didnt tell me that. I had a guy give me a different series of the Rb25 harness as it has a different clip going to the ignitor box and they dont fit. I assumed the harness was interchangeable btw the turbo and n/a as the ignitor and crank angle sensor are from a n/a and the harness is from a manual turbo and they click together. I think I am going to have to ring around again next week. Fingers crossed. Unfortunately I need it by the end of this week as my car is getting it's new computer wired up next week and the tuner needs the complete harness. Cheers Imtorqing

Guy's, I have been looking at getting a carminder system for my car but need a good pager alarm system also to let me know when it is getting taken. I was looking around the net and came across the pageguard alarm system. This alarm includes a colour LCD remote and the alarm contains a camera which you can mount in your car and when required by yourself can send you photos from the camera to your remote which sounds pretty cool. Anyone able to help as to whether you would piss on one of these whilst on fire. Cheers Imtorqing

WANTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AS I PURCHASED WIRING LOOM WITHOUT THIS PART WHICH I NEED Item:Small wiring loom that runs btw the coils and ignitor box Location:Brisbane 4118 Item Condition:Working of course Price and Payment Conditions:let me know how much including express post or will pickup in Brisbane Extra Info:Need the one with the push clip plug to the ignitor box not the metal circlip type as they are different sized plugs Contact Details:Bill 0422886721 or email at [email protected] Cheers Imtorqing

Guy's, I am about to get my motor back from the Engine Shop. Rb25/30 for my Vl Turbo. I am currently sorcing my fuel system(Standard rail, Malpassi Rising Rate Fuel Reg, 800cc Sard injectors, 044, surgetank and standard Vl turbo pump feeding the surge tank etc). What do you guy's recommend ECU Wise. I dont have enough for a Motech(Unfortunately). I'm thinking either Haltech E6X or a Microtech.... Also I will need a shop in SE QLD(Good Tuner) to give me a run in tune and then come back for the good stuff once it's run in. any suggestions would be great....... cheers Imtorqing

I give you points for thinking, BUT If you claim there is a mistake and Qld Transport agree. Qld transport will forward a letter to the owning station. They will identify the mistake. They will then forward out a letter to you telling you that the ticket has been pulled and you will get a brand spanker with any mistakes rectified. If they make a mistake that doesnt mean Oh OK because we put 2.50 on your ticket that is all you will pay, or I mispelt your name, we will let you off. Go your hardest but you will not win..They dont call them BIG BROTHER FOR NOTHING!!!!!!!

Yep, Trying to get it done right. Parr Rods are being used by Hardcore Racing up here in Brisbane and have cars running 700rwhp without problems. Looking for btw 300 - 450rwkw. As far as manifold I will try to get something reputable and proven. I hear so much about different computers. My mechanic said Haltech but the same guy from Morningside said they are crap and it will cost a fortune to dyno tune. Hardcore and them recommended Microtech. I was thinking the stock ecu with a chip but I'm still wondering what to do. My mechanic said a 30/40 would be good responsive wise generally but he recommended a 35/40. He said it will lag a little(35/40) but in the event I want to boost it and get that bit more, I dont have to upgrade the turbo. Good to hear the numbers you have built and the numbers they have been punching out. By the way the car will be my drive car everyday so thats why I really need the reliability. Cheers Imtorqing

Hi Guy's, I'm about to undertake an Rb25/30 conversion on my Turbo. I have bought the head(Rb25det(R33)) and rebuilding my RB 30 Turbo Bottom End. My questions !!!!!! 1. Who on here have done the conversion. 2. How many kilometres since the conversion or until you sold it 3. Have you had any problems I spoke to a member of a performance shop at Morningside(not naming names) and they told me I will have nothing but problems and it's a waste of money. Anyone wanna way in on the subject is welcome. My plan is(No short cuts) ; Full rebuild with the block full prepped, re bored 20thou oversized. New Wiseco Forged RB25 Pistons, New RB30 Parr Rods balanced and shotpeened. All new gaskets etc etc. Garrett 35/40 Turbo, Custom high mount manifold and custom computer(Prob Microtech). My mechanic said he had no problems with his conversion but only had it for three months before selling it. He has made me keen as, but after speaking to the guy from the shop I'm starting to have second thoughts.........cus I could buy a RB25 or Rb26 complete with some bolt ons for the same money... Any assistance would be appreciated.

Would you seperate the turbo. How much without it as I dont need it...... Cheers Imtorqing B)
