permits dont mean sh*t in my opinion......

traffic cops need to make targets, if they want to sticker you, they will.

As for getting permits, a non atmo venting bov could be permitted, an alloy wing could be presumably it would have to be within certain width/length, front mount cooler needs to be behind bumper. if it is then u dont need a permit for it at all. exhaust needs to be under 91db and have more that 100mm clearance. not sure on body kits, window tint needs to be 35 grade or lighter, and vertical doors, by which i think you mean gull wing style? they would need to be engineered id say?!

yeh at end of the day its all comes down to the mood of the guy pulling you over, they can still sticker you. The permit might or might not affect their decision. perhaps the permit makes it easier to get the yellow off? no need to convert everything to stock?

I have permits for atmo BOV, catch can, strut brace, suspension, pod, gauges, intercooler and piping

Didnt think it was possible to get permit for exhaust and ECU, maybe I'll give it a go next time.

hey

i got a yellow sticker on my dads r33 for the tint being too dark (what can i say 9% thats not dark :P ) and it had bov big exhaust and pod and they did not say athing about it, when we took it over the pits. so i dont kno if it was just the fact that they were in a good mood or what, as we thought the exhaust was way too loud. (dam hks super dragger :laugh: )

drive normal and have the right attitude and u will have no need for permits...

if you get a yellow, take it on the chin, such is life and theres no point having a cry over it (even if it wasnt fair)

begin rant

I couldnt agree with you more Michael.

I'm not inferring anyone in this discussion does, but if you wear your ball cap contrary to manufacturers instructions (Y0), have the doof set to 11 and your chair in shuttle take-off position then you just make yourself a target. Drive like a citizen, pick your moment to impress the seat cover an maintain a low profile :fakenopic: Think carefully about the mods you want and how it\you will be percieved, when you invite attention, that's what you get.

Having said this, sometimes just owning a car and being a young person will be enough.

Life is unfair and yes, THEY :nyaanyaa: often dont know what THEY are looking at.

Rant end

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
