Hey guys, the time has come to road reg my R32, so I need to find a stock airbox. It's roadworthy right now, but I'd rather not take any chances with the rego as I'm only in town till friday to do the rego and getting a second appointment could take forever.

I just need an R32 GTSt airbox (apparently the GTS one dosen't line up properly but I could be wrong) for the rego check and I'll have it back to you as soon as I'm done.

If anyone has one lying around I can come and pick it up anytime before Wednesday.

Cheers,

Shan

wow... thanks guys... i can feel the love :pirate:

Gonna borrow Kaz's sometime before Wed arvo as she's not far from my place (just worked out that its 3 left turns and a right turn).

I'll see you all on Sunday morning for brekky tho. Hopefully with my newly registered car.

Altho I just found out the engineer's cert I had expired not long ago and the engineer who issued it is in New Zealand atm :O lets hope they accept the older one.

hehehe. good luck with that :O

they wouldnt register my car because he left RB off the engine prefix...Had to get a re write on the RWC, new appointment etc....

the car's already had an inspection, and it passed everything, cept I couldn't pay the rego as I had just paid the rego on the cef and was $50 short. How embarassment.

Then I went to syd for interviews n stuff, so left the R32 here. Now I'm back to get my car, I rang VicRoads and the guy asked me if I had already rego'd it under my name, coz the VIN and my details were already on it.

So lets hope they're a lil more leniant as it's already been inspected with that engineer's cert. I've got a current roady, so it shouldn't be that much of an issue, unless they're real diligent.

Otherwise I might have to extend my stay in VIC for a lil while until the engineer's cert's gets redone.

Im local ;) - come get whatever you need from my R32 when you're up here

Airbox etc.....

I would... cept I'm keepin my cars all with VIC reg :D sif get a roadworthy cert every year and deal with multicoloured slips for different things.... most. confusing. registry. process. ever.

Hey Kaz, do you mind if I come pick it up tomorrow morning? I'll give you a call beforehand.

Redid the booking for monday, gonna get the engineer to redo the cert on friday, and should be 100% fine then.

Which means I'll be comin to the breakfast meet in a Hyundai :D

I have nothing to offer you of any help, i didn't even read the thread, I just thought i'd take the opportunity to tell you you suck, and you look quite at home in a hyundai.

Eat me!! :(:dry:

sorry only just saw this, had no net today.. networking issues!

Anyway should be ok, going to city nissan again at some point though, about what time?

I was going to try and see if I could drop it over to you last night but I blew a hose in the city in peak hour, had to get a tow home from jack. :)

Eva fell asleep in jacks truck LOL. Smooth ride I guess :D

you suck, and you look quite at home in a hyundai.

Eat me!! :(:)

Just for that I'm gonna come knocking on your door with a bottle of scotch and something for you to jam under my cluster.

Anywho, turns out the roadworthy guys, VICroads and the engineer didn't need the airbox fitted, so I went ahead and got it all sorted out.

Thanks for the offers in any case guys.

COOL I'm sleeping in then :) (hopefully!)

Oh probably a bit late now, but don't ever go to Carlton Vicroads.. that old grey guy in the 'drivethrough' is an utter (& bitter) prick. Greensborough Vicroads are fairly reasonable/nice though.

Burwood Vicroads is where I got it done... they're pretty easy going, although he did give me some hassle about the VIN number being stamped on the strut tower instead of the firewall.

Other than that, all done and ready to go.

    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
