Ok this is a curly one for you NSW and ACT lads....

As some of you know, I'm now living the quiet life in little old Adelaide, with hardly a problem in the world..... no riots, and no cop trouble! life is sweet!!!

ok I digress....

recently I had a speeding fine from, of all places, the ACT.... having recieved it via my NSW address, I was confused as to how this happened?

never having driven my GTR in the ACT.... and for the fact that I was in LA at the time, and the car was in the lockup garage in South OZ....

on ringing the ACT traffic board they tell me it is deff. the right plate.... so I ask for the pic!

pic comes back.... GTR-260 on NSW plates but instead of my black on white plate... its a dark blue or black plate with white writting!

hmmm....

anyone know another metalic grey GTR with either these plates or very very similar :rofl:

ciaooooo

lol

could it be GTR26C???

and are your wheels the same type?

did you ask them what colour the plates r? if they are a diff colour ask the rta how 2 of the same plates got issued.. and that your more than welcome to present them..

also... u have proof the car was there the time of the incident?

crazed truckers! hmmm.... saw a few of them in my mamoth road trip...cairns-sydney-cairns in a BMW X5.... no I haven't jumped ship with merli ;)

so does anyone know a car with similar plates? the ACT say that they tried all the combos and beleive that it is me.... :P

anyhow they are not going to fine me, but if this happens in the future???

Ben just admit it was you. i cant belive you went to all this effort of painting your numberplates, and changing your wheels, and moving your car to another state and conconting this BS story about you being OS. just pay the fine!

haha, you bad man.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
