Hmm indeed, maybe we wil have to start cutting the obilgatory tunnel run from the cruzes :eek: their messing with tradition here!!!:)

PS:Hey Chris u got the money for the Coctail party? Trev wants to get it by tonite, so we should go round for some fri arvo drinks me thinks :)

the tunnel is a nice bit of road. i think they should increase the speed and start kicking all the retards off the street who have caused multiple accidents.

although it proves the government is mainly after money.

and what happens with the plates between 60 and 80??

or 50 and 80 for that matter. :starwars:

yeah its common in Japan.Saw it in option magazine,its kinda like a thing to hold your plates on the top.And when the wind resistance is like 80km/h,it flaps back into your fmic.I think you can d.i.y(i think i saw a flapping plate black r-33 in perth).Yeah its automatic,oh did i say this is highly illegal?do at your own risk.This is not japan.

is that a turbo?

in the real kit,theres a specific resistance set to the springs or whatever.they come up with everything in japan.I think i saw this japanese video of a car with one,at low speeds it kinda flaps lightly.Once again,it is not a good idea to do this mod on our local roads.

As much as i hate speed camera's and love speeding though the tunnel..

this is about the only time i agree of the placement of a camera. They are FIXED camera's so everyone knows about them, theyre not hidden like the multinova's we see on the side of the road all the time. This time theyre real purpose is to save lives.

A tunnel is a closed environment and there are only two ways into them, if anything goes wrong it can escalate dramatically compared to an open air environment.

I have my good side saying ' yeah, great idea'.. my other side saying ' screw that, i love speeding through there' hehe :lol:

Being fixed i agree at least we know its there - its patrolled so regularly anyway the only difference its going to make is the fact we know. But has anyone tried to read their speedos (with lights off because i cant be bothered putting my lights on just for 5 secs) while going thru tunnel - its impossible u cant see your speedo!!

I go thru tunnel everday usually in peak hour where if you reach 50km an hour then your doing well so i dont really care - just pick up the pace outta the tunnel.

Obscuring your number plate is a 50 dollar fine. Hell, even taking it off is a 50 dollar fine. Getting caught doing 140 in the tunnel... big fine, loss of licence.

This may not be japan, but basic economics implies which one of those options you should pursue.

Bike riders have been putting their rego discs over their back plates for years, its common practice. I drove my old car around for 4 weeks with out a front plate, and 6 months without a rego sticker. I even drove around for 2 years with a front plate missing 2 numbers because id had an accident and a tow ball went through the middle of the plate.

And when i DID get caught for it? Out the back of Kewdale on a Sunday night with a bunch of Silvia lads? They told me to put it on the back instead!!!

50 bucks every 2 years? Or loss of licence every tunnel run?

Take your chances.

kewdale - i love kewdale its a very rare occasion u see police or radars there.

I know a guy that got caught going thru a radar and you couldnt see the last two numbers of his plate - it took them 6 months but they tracked him down. Im getting radar detector for birthday pressie - i know they slip up occasionally but its better than nothing - when u pay $450 for nizmo plates u aint exactly too eager to hide them. But i know what your saying when i had my z31 someone backed into me and the panel shop lost my front number plate so i drove around in it for a couple of weeks til they found it - wasnt pulled over.

Hehehe my favourite play ground, all the roads are nice and wide :D

Dowd St is nice, long, wide and has a nice sweeper at the end... Look for Nissan HQ at the start of it. Lay a couple of nice black lines out the front for the lovely people at Nissan to come to work to on monday morn :P

Not that ive done that or anything. I don't engage in such nonsense.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
