got it now ~ one thing i hate about their regulations is that you need to be a solicitor to bloody read them...and understand them fully.

When I read the one about wheel sizes it seemed to me that if a car in the same model run has bigger you can go 1 inch wider than that...but it wasnt very clear...

hehe..funny..if the owner of the tint place gets busted for tinting the windows to non ADR specs he's in trouble ;)

BTW: that links contains most roadworthy/ADR items in VIC and all the requirements. Its pretty good, even if its a bit technical.

Yup, I didn't know that until I read that too. That means many Excel and Lancer drivers should be pinned for having 18" wheels on their cars. How many times is _that_ enforced though, and yet if your car is 1cm too low, bang.

i find that the r34 has no traction whatsoever even with tcs on.

i am in straight line in 2nd and decide to step on it a bit and it begins to lose traction.. this is in the dry and i can feel the power back off to stop the wheels from spinning up...

is this usually the case or have i just got really crappy tires, though new, i have never heard of the brand.. it's WAH"somthing"

mine currently has simex too, they are cheapies but seem to grip just fine, they are around $170>180 each or so I am told.

Ed: not much, just cat-back [kakimoto 3.5"], pod filter and :)

Less than you by looking at your avatar!

hopefully around 160 - 170 rwkws

    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
    • the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box
