You'll find that a Ferrari has winged doors in the exhaust that only open above a certain RPM :D

And other manufacturers cars might sounds loud under load, but remember... and this is what you are forgetting.

The test is done without load.

You know, f**k it. I am buying the apexi com.avcr boost controler,injectors,turbos and going to produce 1000 horses at the fly wheel..

Bring it on epa....

If Australia can sell coal overseas, stick their fingers up at all the other countries of the world and

refuse emission targets set ,so will i...

Im gonna make noise and consume lots of fuel doin it ....

f**k i just sounded like an American.....

See or chat to you later

thats the spirit, no point trying to be green/clean when the government doesn't act the same way :D

They enjoy selling all the coal they can and using for coal power plants, without any concern for the Kyoto treaty etc...so why should we get worried over a few high emissions?

Ahhhhh memories.

I remember when I first bought my car and was scared to mod this and that. I was worried what would happen if I was caught and how much it would cost. At the end of the day on a forum like this, if you ever do get caught there are always people willing to help, just ask Maverick.

All I can say is KEEP your stock parts, don't sell them. If you ever do get caught just wack them back in :banana:

Happy modding :action-smiley-069:

^ what's the point of that? if what ash say is right, (new laws, even a stock GTR can't pass)

ok, we'll now rev to 5100rpm

oh ok, let me just set that on my fancy shmancy rev limited, there you go 5100rpm

right o.... fail. next.

are you saying that they won't be able to rev it passed 4K? that will be pointless as they will know there is a restriction somewhere, find it, disable, and continue with the test.

kyoto is waste of time without everyone involved. don't wait for stuff like that, do it yourself. Join green fleet, change your light bulbs, get solar panels, use more public transport, car pool when you can. Plant craploads of trees. Don't chop down ones you have. Turn off any appliance you don't need on, standby modes use almost as much power as machines being on, etc, etc...

sad fact is, without countries like china/india involved, kyoto is worthless

EDIT: so Dr Drift ECU tune is illegal?

you really are a straight edge...

You didnt know the bee r shoots flames and will singe the eyebrows off the epa blokes?

Or

Are you all defensive about making fun about things?

When it comes to epa im all for passing etc.. But who can be fooked honestly

ofcourse

Technically they're not illegal as they are not 'user tunable', just require a full emmisions test to prove they meet relevant ADR's, in the same way that any password lockable aftermarket ECU can be passed.

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
