well got defected last night for the following:

1) Pod Filter (only got a heat sheild around it, will wack a lid on now)

2) BOV

3) Exhaust modified no report (however it should be under 90dB)

4) Modified bonnet lid no report (CF bonnet)

5) Reverse lights not working ( got the reverse light switch indicator in my garage, need to put it in)

6) windscreen washers not working (had no fliud)

IF any1 can PM me a place to clear the defect without me having to mess aroudn taking the BOV off, or swapping the bonnet around ( i have the stocker in my garage) as i am going to melb for work halfway through next week and wont have time, it would be greatly appreciated...

Has anyone had any experience with a friendly engineer, who could do a report for my car.... preferably 1 where he could cover my bonnet, however i realise the issue with CF bonnets.

Thanx and all help appreciated :)

eeek.

Man, whenever I hear of a defect, i get scared. hasn't happened to me yet, although I did drive past a defect station a few weekends ago, on the pacific highway near the F3 of all places.

I was tucked in behind a bus, as a friendly Taxi driver flashed me a warning.

good luck with clearing it all Susp., let us all know how u go, as I'm sure I'll need the info sometime soon.

Just out of curiosity, where did it happen?

Can't really help, but points 4 & 5 seem a little rough. Technically speaking, I guess each point mentioned could be seen as a defect, but they must have really had it in for you if they went to the effort of checking all those minor little things...

Good luck getting it all sorted.

Well its only fair that club members get the benefits - im sure you understand

Without listing names and numbers, which would defeat the point, there are several places listed with engineers on staff who can, and have helped out SAU'ers before. Price guides included.

I would tell you the names myself, but its just not fair to paying members - sorry

Im not an engineer, so i cant really answer that

The thread includes names and numbers of engineers aswel as price guides, not a list of what they will pass and what they wont

Im sure when some of the members who have been through this see this thread, they will help you with specifics, but like i said.....im not an engineer

    • The frontend wouldn't go low enough because the coilover was max low and the upper control arm would collapse into itself and potentially bottom out in the strut tower. I made a brace and cut off the kingpin and then moved the upright down 1.25" and welded. i still have to finish but this gives an idea. Now I can have a normal 3.25" of shock travel and things aren't binding. I'm also dropping the lower arm and tie rod 1.25".
    • Motor and body mockup. Wheel fitment and ride height not set. Last pic shows front ride height after modifying the front uprights to make a 1.25" drop spindle.
    • Here's Logans Silvia with R32 Drivetrain, mine will be slightly lower (more angle). He was constantly blowing the RH axles at around 16deg. I want to avoid this.    
    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.
