nah its got all different ecus, boost controllers, bleed valves, wat stock intercoolers look like on each import with photos etc.

can some1 post up pettets list of illegal cars to own as a p plater...

just de badge your car so it doesn't say gts or gts25t or gtr and most cops will look at these pics in the books and not have a idea on what car it is . so they can only guess if its legal or not, unless they see your turbo....

thank god ive got a full license and dont have to worry about these issues

^^^ not that easy when the police pop your bonnet and read your vin plate

anyways guys,.. petett and highpowered vihicles isnt what this thread is about.. sorry for pulling it in another dirrection

i'm not sure if that Petett fellow is allowed to simply pull together his own list and enforce it. surely it must go through some sort of legal process. Whats not to say then we could just put together a list of cars cops couldn't drive... (every car).

it be funny if someone could photo chop a cop car hooning... burnouts and donuts and overtaking. lol

I think the club needs to issue a statement to the media to distance ourselves from this irresponsible behaviour, stating our policies and approach to driver training and enjoyment in the appropriate venue (DECA or the track).

That would go down really well..... what with all the speeding fines and defects handed out on cruises.

I'm not a big attender for cruises so you will have to be a little more detailed. Certainly Speeding isn't condoned on cruises and this was never about modifications, just stupid driver behaviour.

Sorry Caz, I take that as even though it's club policy not to speed or drive dangerously on the streets during club sanctioned activities, because people do it anyway then we shouldn't reinforce our position and attempt to continue the education of our members.

Some would suggest our silence would be an admission of allowing or encouraging such activity when this is simply not the case.

"six-feet tall and bulletproof" - short cop

"If you've got the technology, then use it" - people do and they get fined for it or even get harrased for suspected phone use when there isn't one in the car!

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
