They took TWO HOURS at regency for the "full inspection" ..They crow barred under my dash and found my hidden turbo timer. Now its broken. they checked everything possible.

They did me for lots of little things like Tie rod ends and bushes in the suspension. Leaky power steering boot. Just a little list of things that will piss you off (but lots) . The exhaust db was 91 when the legal limit is 90!! Im like.. seriously...

So yeah most of the stuff I have to fix is stuff I cant really borrow.

So I ring regency and they tell me 6-8 weeks wait "lovey".

They were really "cheeky" at regency saying things like "dont go borrowing parts this time either".

Grrr.. Wait till I become a regency inspection pleb!

haha My sister works there, maybe u can buy your way out. hehe

1 reason why i have an OLD SCHOOL car, pre emmisions etc. cause they cant do shit.

My compliance plate has like 3 ADR`s and that suits me fine. Sorta glad i dont have a Skyline for that reason, cop magnets, regency magnets, and if they wanna be picky u will never get your car on the road again, "Hint" So DONT smart mouth any one who works there. Also u better win the lottery so u can pay to fix all the defects.

Either way get the work done thats needed to pass inspection and give me a ring , msg, im sure i can get my sister to bump a car or put u in if some one else cancels.

The Joys of knowing ppl :]

Whatsisname , ive heard of brand new trucks straight off the production lines have been inspected and found to have 140 odd defects. They can get u for an over full ashtray if they want.

BTW Erica doing the suspension bushed and tie rod ends etc makes it a safer car and nicer ricer to drive. Go the Nolathane.

Between the cops and regency adelaide is just one big government harrassment extraveganza.

Remember in school when we learnt that if we are in trouble, to run to a police officer, yet, now that we are older, we have to avoid the cops?

I just want to know when the will start fighting real crime. And defecting cars that blow smoke and have holes in the panels from rust.

Maybe they want us to stop spending money on our cars and start taking and dealing drugs?

I just want to know what the **** do they want from us!

I don't take their golf clubs away from them and put a big sticker on there saying they can't use them?

well that is gay.

accidents aren't cause by modified vehicles.

they are caused from the driver and there irresponsible driving.

i don't see mag wheels flying off and hitting other peoples cars?

nore do i see people going deaf from exhausts?

what about all those old people i see on the road driving on whichever side they want? they don't get hassled?

    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.

    • Ha ha ha, so they stopped the bearings spinning on the one you want, but then decided the crank hub should slip instead 馃槢   Stick to RB, at least you can work on it yourself. And now it doesn't smell of vapour   Also I still believe there's a chance your new flap doesn't "pop", as even though the engine might breath hard, it has a direct path with no restriction to the inlet, which when on boost should pull a bit of suction for you. If you do get pressure in the catch can id be very intrigued. Time to put a boost gauge on it, and a session at the track, then solid cover your vent and do another session
    • Oh nah, S55 doesn't eat bearings, just the crank hub slips lol.
    • When鈥檚 the tow ball on the 33 coming? 馃檭
    • I welcome any basic question that can help haha. Yes it has 2 unis but the driveshaft is a one piece and the unis are welded without a slip yoke at each end.   What's funny is anytime I've ever had wheel vibrations it's always been in the front so I automatically assume it will lead to steering wheel shake and not chassis vibration. With that being said, I never considered looking at my rear wheel balance... I have doubts though as this wasn't an issue before I pulled the motor and trans but is still very much worth a look. I'll do that tonight after work. Thanks.
