hi all,

im looking at getting a set of veilside skirts and rear bumper and have got a decent price on it,

my only concern is the fact its fibreglass, are they legal in VIC?

is fibreglass any good or do they crack etc?

i have heard they are illegal but then pft who cares. I'm not 100% sure wether they are or not though.

IM with u, im sure if u go pulled over in your skyline they they would worry about a thousand other things before your kit.

Just DO IT!!!!

I dont really think it is.

When i smashed my car my fiberglass front bar was absolutely shattered in peices on the ground, the cop never said anything to me. If it was a big issue i would say he would have fine med on the spot because i can assure you he did want to fine me on the spot but he had nothing to get me for.

well i have contacted vicroads and they gave me the go ahead for a fibreglass front bar/skirts/rear bar so long as they are 10mm of the ground, have all lights still visable and dont extrude from the car in a dangerous manner....SO ITS ALL GOOD!!!!

word of warning a fibreglass bonnet or carbon fibre cannot be used unless you have an engineering cert as it effects the cars crumble zone

well after the ok from vic roads i ordered just the side skirts alone to see the quality from fibrecrazy, and i must say they were exceptional. Also considering i ordered them yesterday or recieved them that night, the guy made a specical effort to personally deleiver them to my front door at 9.00.

Here are the pics and if anyone wants to see what they look like on the car (veilside e1), mind you these are just sittiin on the car without sickaflex or self tappers so im real happy. Now i have to get the front lip and rear so once i get that, by the end of the week hopefully i can get her booked in to get sprayed

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
