Well from my experience they check the rego sticker for car information?

Also - can anyone else confirm that rego stickers for S2 skylines are 1600KG? (I presume they are all the same?).

i dont think you're going to get off on the rego sticker....as far as cops are concerned, R33 GTS-T's are over the power to weight limit (and they're correct)

But it would help with the argument that the car is 'legal', especially if the officer isn't 100% certain. Would help even more if you had a GTS rego sticker, just say "errmm no, my car is a GTS not a GTST" :(

You have an S2 don't you? Able to quickly check? :(

yeah i could check, but i really do not see the point

you're saying you want to register your car as something its not, to beat a possible $100 fine...

if you dont want to take the risk, get an R32

Well if the car's registration actually says that it is 1600KG, and the S2 Skyline on stock specs makes it possible for a P plater to drive, doesn't that mean the car perfectly legal?

Just because GTST's aren't legal, doesn't mean that all variations are illegal too. I think if your rego sticker stated the weight of the car was fine for the power to weight ratio, the coppers would feel a little un easy giving you a fine.

well i think its obvious the sticker is wrong...and given the fact that its well known ALL R33 GTS-T's are over the limit

my cousins VX clubsport has about 1250kg on the rego sticker....and i think we know thats a very ambitious figure....

It's a good point... If the sticker said it's a GTS, then they surely couldn't fine me for driving a GTST? (Even if it is, how would they be 100% sure).

Who knows. Some cops are assholes I guess.

EDIT - Yeah, I'll just take my chances. See millions of skylines with P plates up, hopefully I can just fit into the crowd... :(

its like beating my head against a wall..

I'll put it as simply as possible.

ALL R33 GTS-T's are OVER the power to weight limit. If you are on your P's in Victoria, and are caught driving one, the cop has every right to fine you for doing so. There is NO WAY to beat the rule.

If you want to attempt to register your car as a GTS, then by all means go for your life...just be sure to tell vic roads that the engine number is wrong, and then be ready to answer the barrage of questions that follows....

:(

lol...

Relax, it was just an idea that came to mind. You said it's not possible/etc. I believe you. I probably wouldn't have tried even if there was a high chance of it been possible.

As I said, I'll just take my chances. A lot of others seem to get away with it, so hopefully I can too.

thats more like it

I'm a p plater. my car is over the power to weight ratio (by SFA but its still over). I knowingly break that particular law, everytime i drive my car.

If i happen to get done for it, then so be it. I will not argue with it whatsoever as its pointless, and will lead to the officer getting me for everything else under the sun as well.

Im yet to be pulled over in my car....however, drive like an idiot will give them more reason than they already have to pull you over, and then it'll be time to bend over.

You're probably one of the first P plater skyline drivers I have heard of who hasn't been pulled over.

Hopefully they don't get you either.

Guess it depends on what area you're from, how you drive and just how lucky you are really...

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
