Anyone who f**ks with the BOV on a stock car is a twat...simple as that.
marko, still trying to chase you up a stock bov.
no worries, thanks a lot ryan! appreciate it heaps.
-
so removing bov on skylines = stall?
meaning we cant haz teh fooly sihk flutterz braz? not that i care or want.. just curious.
-
did you get his badge number? report him.
exhaust too loud while car is off sucks, ive been done for that and bov couple weeks ago.
my experience has taught me, next time you get pulled over or talked to by a police officer, pull out your phone, turn on the voice recorder and leave it on. If they ask, its on, it stays on and if they don't like it they can speak to your lawyer.

after 1x stock r33 blow off valve asap, must be in good working order.
pm please.

yeh thats what id be saying too.
haha jokes, i know its hers.
but really, ryans a top bloke! definately consider getting your car serviced etc by him.
btw, i owe you a drink next time i see you around

Just wanted to thank Ryan again for doing my 100k service earlier today!
The car felt completely different afterwards and there is no more flat spot anywhere. His work is tops and he knows his shit!
Highly recommended if you want to get some work done, and hes got a pretty sweet mini soft top too
haha cheers again mate, really appreciate it!

I don't think I've seen it posted anywhere before

Motorcyclists are limited under the LAMS program, so why can't L and P platers be subject to naturally aspirated 4 cylinder cars with under 100kw?
Trust me, motorcycle restrictions are just as stupid. Theres nothing stopping me from jumping on my shitty 250cc sports bike and taking it up to 200. all it takes is a slightest change in road conditions and im dead. Im not saying restrictions should be lifted as they got their Pros too but restricting people WILL NEVER change their attitude towards it.
Not to mention that if you're a tall f**ker and want a sports bike, its lots of pain and cramps, not to mention how safe it is having a over sized person riding a undersized bike. but that's another story.
Also SLED on a note of having "no chance" in a underpowered pos car making you not wanna do stupid things, i do see where you are coming from, but a young driver who just got his/her license and freedom vs. an experienced driver who has a beast sitting in the garage are two different things. You might not get the urge to do anything stupid but I'm sure as hell they do. All of my friends that got their licences some years ago thrashed the crap out of whatever they got, one of them still does. And by no means were/are any of those cars quick off the line nor something to rave on about.

Another good idea for all those that drive around with mods that you know are, or fall under guidelines as being legal, print off a copy of ADR's and keep it in your glove box.
But when you are explaining it to the cop be polite and understanding as no one likes a smartarse.

has anyone gotten through regency with the bov housing plugged. as in running no bov at all? or does it have to be there?

and braking neck while trying to look at mass angles.

I know the sound, I've heard it on a couple r33's that Ive checked out for my mate. It sounds like its coming from the timing belt cover. Either the cover itself or something inside it. Both cars drove perfectly fine but it does put you off buying the car. Sort of sounds like an expensive noise to fix.
-
ouch, lucky you're not in SA...
After they find that the parcel shelf has been cut in any way your car is blacklisted. Never to pass or be re-registered again.
Ive only heard of one person getting it fixed and engineered and it most definitely wasn't anywhere near a cheap exercise.
But that's SA for ya...
-
as above, i don't think it should keep your key in, just doesn't let you turn it... that's on a 33 tho.
-
hey man this sort of thing keeps happening to me too with my r33. well now i've actually figured out how to actually stall the car. its not random. try this alright:
when you are 4th or 5th gear, boost the car a little bit to gain a bit of speed. then let put the car in to free gear(neutral). if it stalls or rpm drops below normal you probably are having the same prob as me.
think it mite be something to do with the turbo winding down or BOV settings?
that would be your BOV... I have r33 that does the same thing, ive adjusted the bov and it helps a bit, but still does it once or twice. I cant get my hands on a stock bov which is even more annoying.

why not e-mail him first, see where we both stand then decide?

****turbos dont go fast with out the drivers permission!!!*****
thats very true but on the other hand why do you need a turbo that big if your not planning on going fast ?.
always more than one way too look at it
Well, i know this doesn't stand for a huge amount of people, but for those that upgrade their hardware to a certain extent more than often have track days in mind. Not everyone falls in this category but a lot of people cant afford a purpose built track car for their hobby and like to upgrade their daily driver to something usable at the track.
Lately however it is evident that these machines can fall in to wrong hands, especially imports.
I agree with trying to work out something with the boys in blue, I'm pretty sure most of us are sick of being labeled hoons etc just because of our taste in cars or our hobbies. If you want to be a tool on the road, then face the consequences, as simple as that. I personally wouldn't mind having police present at cruises or meets (not that I've been out on any with SAU yet) but as far as popping bonnets for doing nothing wrong and targeting sensible drivers is concerned.. its just not on. However in saying that I can understand un-roadworthy tyres or lights not working etc etc as they are pretty basic and important safety bits.
I say work something out with the authority (as long as they're willing to sit down and make a solid contribution), as if we keep playing the hiding game its just gonna get worse from both sides.
If you guys need help etc with sorting this out I'm willing to contribute but I might not be as knowledgeable/experienced as a lot of the other members.

magic fairy took last 4 posts away?

Hehe familias ftw! My old tx3 turbo was all stealth, black piping, black cooler, even had rubber hose sleeved over some stuff... looked like any other tx3. Got pulled over many times, not one defect.
But yeh this sucks as i even posted in WTB section that im looking for factory recirculation valve the day it happened. I tried talking to the cop and being as nice as possible.. no go. I'm not a fan of bov's and really don't see the point in having one apart from the fully hektik noise they make.
I do have some plans for my car but it will all still look factory and stock once its done.
btw, how much is regency gonna cost me? Ill get everything sorted this week and try see if i can get away with just cop shop although i doubt it.
especially if u wana be a 3rd wheel.

factory bov ftw!
just got mine today from a member on here, engine feels like it runs much better, starts up easier and no more idling issues. still makes noise through the pod which is annoying...
