  1. another one
  2. ill post some pics. the damage isnt that bad. i hope the headlights can be salvaged
  3. im in desperate need of a front bar for a series 2 gtst r33. id pref like it to be in black and hopefully in the melb area. if anyone has one or knows of one, let me know asap. thanx
  4. what about hyper-tech in vermont? i know they can be a bit pricey. im gonna have to def get a new front bar. does anyone know if hypertech do repairs?
  5. damn....i was just in an accident. Basically the whole front of my car was pushed in as it was wet and i went up the back of the car in front. im probably gonna need a new front bar and lights and such. but its not that bad. the bonnet needs to be repaired. can anyone tell me of any good repair places around the eastern suburbs area? im in doncaster/templestowe. any info would be greatly appreciated
  6. i went past that testing station in doncaster....it was MASSIVE..the biggest ive ever seen. the testing bay was full and the cop at the start of the line wasnt looking at me and was talking to another cop and waved me past!!! phew!! glad i didnt get pulled in... but alas, i took a trip to knox and they got me there.
  7. my thoughts exactly. but i guess it just depends on the cop at the time. i was SO in the wrong place at the wrong time. Friday night no less. ill never do that again. the cop did spend 5 mins combing over the engine, trying to get me on something, looking for anything shiny, or chromey. sorry mate, nothing but stock for the time being at least...
  8. based on their "specs", theyre going by a generic weight. if im sitting in it, the power output is 124kw. but i dont know if that will hold up if i take action
  9. im trying to find the specs of an auto gtst. the cops reckon my kW is 182.77, but i keep finding 180 kW
  10. i think its very unfair that we get picked on. the cop was saying that theyre just trying to knock some sense into young drivers who wrap themselves around poles and he went on to tell me about one they did in footscray about a WRX. its not fair that all P platers who drive imports get a bad name coz some are d***heads when they drive. i was just pissed that the cop was unsure whether to book me or not until another car showed up and pulled out a folder of specs. i might take the matter further. im not sure if this infringment goes on my record but i reckon their specs are bs. my mate argued about official canberra laws on power to weight but the cop said that this law was state law, not federal, so basically its only policed in vic and nowhere else. they were rubbing their hands together when they pinged me. more money for the bracks government.
  11. i think i was subjected to scare tactics. ive never had any trouble anywhere else so im thinking ill b ok. theres no f***ing way im gonna sell my car.
  12. hey guys, i just had to put up a post to vent my anger at the cops. i got pulled over tonight in the Knox Carpark. The cops saw me and i watched as they dropped a U'ey and sat on my ass for a couple of minutes, then they flashed their lights at me so i pulled over. The cop asked for my license and then to pop the hood...standard check i thought. i had to get out to pop the hood, and then another unmarked car pulled up and the cop asked what measures i took when finding out if this car was legal to drive on P's. i told him i spoke to Vicroads and they gave me a list which didnt have GTSts on it and they told me it was ok. because my car is stock and auto, the cop that pulled me up was unsure what to do and asked the cop in the unmarked car what he should do, then i was promptly booked. i got a massive lecture about power to weight and they showed me the figures in their little book. $105 bucks and no points loss. the cop told me to either a:)garage the car or b:) sell it and if i was caught again ill go to court and lose my license. i only have exactly 12 months till im off my P's and i watched as all the cops there had grins on their faces. in the end my mate who had a full license had to drive and i was left with the fine. long story short: DO NOT GO TO KNOX. EVER. they have their own bloody traffic cop unit there. sorry about the long post but i am still fuming and had to vent my anger. does anyone know any other hotspots? ill add Knox to my list.
  13. hey guys, has anyone had problems with their fuel indicator in their cars? mine just died on me yesterday by dropping to the bottom of display saying its empty when it had a full tank. now it goes up and down while im driving. has anyone had this problem or know how to fix it? im not gonna know when im running low, other than when the orange fuel light comes on.
  14. ive got my head unit up and running, except for the antenna. when i connect the blue wire for the antenna to the red/green wire, nothing happens. when i connect the blue wire to the red/green and the red/white wires next to it, the antenna goes up. when i connect the blue wire to just the red/white wire, the antenna goes down. im stumped. can anyone help me out?

    tyre probs

    does anyone know if you can get tyres with multiple grooves on them, like wets and slicks on the same tyre that can handle most conditions? let me know of the name if u guys know any
  16. i just had to vent my frustration guys!!! i went to carlton vicroads to get my car registered and i had a young guy come out and check it. he was just about to pass it when this stupid old guy came out and looked at the comp plates and said 'it needs tamper proof rivets" WTF is that? so i had to go and get them put on and when i came back the young guy looked at it and approved, but then the old guy came back and spent 10 mins checking the car again!!!! after an hour of stuffing around i finally got it registered. stupid old guy!!!
  17. yeah i had the same probs with my plates too. i havent had it as bad as some of u guys, but my car was landed and complied at the end of april. the comp centre didnt put the paperwork in until after the 7th, so ive been waiting since then. i just got my plates bolted on yesterday. that was the result of a lot of hassling to the complince guys. theyre prob sick of me now.
  18. hey guys, im getting my r33 registered tomoz at carlton vicroads. (finally!! damn compliance plates!!) i wanted to know if any of u guys had troubles getting urs registered as ive been hearing different things, like going there just before lunch so theyll be too busy wanting to eat than checking the car too much. anyway, has anyone had any probs with registering?

    Exhaust troubles

    thanks guys. got some things to think about.
  20. hey guys im wanting to upgrade my stock r33 exhaust to a 3 inch cat back system. do u guys think its better to get the parts myself and get it intalled or to get a workshop to do it all? what are some good places to go for exhaust systems?
  21. hey guys, can anyone tell me the best place/s in melb to get a strut brace for the engine bay for my r33? ive looked around but was wondering if u guys knew any good places. cheers.
  22. does anyone know if u can get like a panel or something to cover an empty din slot under a head unit? i ripped out a stock double din unit and put in a single din unit for my r33. any info would be appreciated.
  23. hey guys i was wondering if anyone knows any good equaliser units to get. i recently ripped out my stock nissan headdeck with gps which took up both slots and put in a JVC headdeck. now theres an empty slot, and i want to fill it. anyone have any good eq units they can recommend?
