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 :) )

damn i didnt know that :P i would have thought they would prefer a car running the correct afr's... better than running rich as and polluting the air :P

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

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
