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

    • Nah, new members can't post pics until they reach a certain post count. If I get a chance I'll promote you to full member, if @Prank or someone else doesn't get there first.
    • Drilled the rubber out on a slow speed and it didn't catch much at all. Probably only half a dozen holes was enough to shred the rubber and it dropped off easily leaving the inner sleeve behind. Will tackle that later
    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
