well i got done for my:

exhaust - i wanted to get a new quieter tip anyway

pod - will getting a pod enclosure pass me?

tyres - sorted

ground clearance - just my sideskirts are low, i could just take them off

and i got this other one that says "engine modifications to comply with standards".

i dont have any engine modifications other than the ones he mentioned.. and even if i did, can he defect me on something he cant see himself?

EDIT:

so far ive sorted:

- ride height

- airbox

NEEDED:

- standard muffler

yeah i got screwed.

ive got to get a blue slip for this one.

the front and back are fine.. its just the sides, they sit around 60mm off the ground.

i dont have the chromies anymore, its sitting on stockies.

you shouldnt need an actuall blue slip..

just someone that does them..

all they have to do is sign the bottom of the defect and done!

mate i hate to say it but that car with a loud exhaust, bright yellow paint job, body kit with our without the chromies is going to attract the friendly eye of the boys in blue. especially if you are still on Ps. (think you are?).

it is harsh, but perhaps think about a more sedate colour/body kit choice next time! lol

haha yeah but i like my colour :)

my aim is to get my car streetable anyway, i just need tyres which will be sorted anyway, my exhaust which i wanted to quieten, my sideskirts make the car low so i could just take them off.... im not sure about wether or not i can use a heat sheild for the pod or do i have to use a standard airbox?

Your best bet would probably be to borrow a stok box to get it cleared, and then put the Pod box on after that to decrease defectability

the front bar was on.

im stull not too sure as they've ticked the "exhaust noise/emissions square".

what sucks is i cant drive it as theyve given me a red sticker! bastards.

What they give you different color stickers here????

In adelaide its only one color yellow so it would match with your car Joe hehe :) shouldnt laugh sorry

Yeah N1_R33_GTR.

I forget what they all mean totally but I think its like

?? = Vehicle must only be driven to workshop and back to clear defects.

Yellow = Driveable - defects must be cleared in ?? days.

Red = Can't drive vehicle. Must be towed.

I think it's something like that. Ive been lucky enough to never cop a defect yet.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
