Hi guys/gals

As the topic states I just got defected and have to go for a full inspection.

I was hoping that I could get some advise from you all as to what I might get done for.

My car is a 94 gts-t r33. It has 248wrkw with the following mods:

PARTS LIST REMOVED

Thats all I can think of right now.

If you guys can give me any suggestions that might help that would be great.

Make sure your car is legal before you go over... the little mods like the fuel pump, coils, clutch dont make a difference. Specially make sure your numberplate is on.. because if you had that on chances are you wouldnt have to waste your time going over dickson. Generally speaking anyway.

Goodluck.

Prepair yourself for the event.... Remember to take the lube and be ready to bend over when they say so.

Nah really from my encounters with them they dont really have a clue whats factory and whats not on imports, so you shouldnt have too much trouble.

Step 1: Remove the listing of parts on your car. There is one RTA inspector who frequents these forums, so youve just given them a clean list of parts on the car.

Step 2: I believe RTA provides a complimentary tube of vaseline for your personal comfort

Just what he said. Maybe it's time to see an engineer for some bits,and just remove others...except for the rego' plate that everyone knows you should have two of. Not to crucify you publicly,but there isn't too many better ways to get yanked than not having one of said plates missing...

They cant not Find it, its located on the side of my cold air box. I think I am going to put the stock boost controller in for the test.

Heh, um let me clarify.

The dude would have defected me if he'd found the in cabin "boost controller thing with the pretty lights on it". He had no idea what he was looking at in the engine bay. :lol:

I dont know what its like up there and how clued up the local rta is, but if you can do the labour yourself I would say better to be safe than sorry.

Good Luck

(what the hell were you doing without a number plate anyway :) )

Boost controller alters emissions from the vehicle, its illegal. Same with SAFC, same with ECU's etc.

      Yes, well, keep in mind that the air is intake air, which equal boost + possible oil. If there is a fine deposition of oil/scunge that then gets hot and carbonises, it could look just like that. Probably shouldn't be leaking. Might just be normal for that product. Hard to know if it is relevant.

      Wrapped up putting the motor back in today. I have a stainless flex turbo drain pipe like you see on cummins and that funny enough PRP started selling. I generally prefer these but sadly they come with a finite amount of times they can be bent before they snap. Took well over a week for a replacement to arrive.  I was able to prime the pump but I will more then likely wait until next friday to take it on its madden voyage. I also installed the nozzles for my direct port WMI setup but plugged the nozzle holders for now. I'll tube it with Swagelok SS tubing and fittings next chance I get. No rush, i'll be breaking it for a week or two anyways.

      I could definitely do some logs without the VCT enabled for sure. I believe we tried it on the dyno and it still spiked but wouldn't hurt to try again and have the logs    I might be able to use some metal cable ties and hold the gate open entirely, I'd need to see about that one.   What do we think about these marks on the cap of the actuator? This is where the two parts push together where the diaphragm spring is. To me they look like air has been sleeping past?? Specifically talking about those black stains above the lower rim/lip. They can be rubbed away as if it's just an exhaust stain.

      And if it still spikes, just for now, turn off VCT completely by disabling it OR simply unplug the solenoid. Just to rule out excessive exhaust pressure. I recall a video from Motive DVD about a decade ago, where Hawkins original single Garrett GTX3582 or so turbo had boost control issues sub 1.4bar of boost as well.   Food for thought? Is there anyway you can peg the WG completely open and/or dodgily not plumb it back into your exhaust system for testing purposes?
