First weekend in R34

[NismoR34]

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.

[predator]

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.

[NismoR34]

actually that one regarding tint was much easier to understand than i thought.

maybe i could pass my car off as a bus and get a ruling...he he

[NismoR34]

Couldnt find anything on Intake mods listed there?

*goes to check epa website*

[NismoR34]

CREATION: if you want we can swap headlights

I'll even drive to your place!....as for the tints...

If you get pulled over...put both windows down.

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"

[ed]

sounds like crappy tyres dude.

[NismoR34]

yeah i agree mine is probably not that slippery even in the wet!

how stock is your car? maybe you got more power than standard too?

[ed]

wot mods you got dale?

[SmoothLine]

Sounds like crappy tyres. Change them to something decent and u will be sweet

[CR34TION]

guess tyres have to wait... tyres are pretty damn expensive...

[CR34TION]

which tyres you recommend and how much approx?

[SmoothLine]

I got some Simex put on my 33.... and they have awsome grip, really impressed. They arent to pricey. And would cpmpare pretty well to the pirelli's i had on my last car really well

[NismoR34]

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
