I have stnd dump pipe and dump-cat pipe, and a stnd airbox and panel filter if you need to borrow them.

FYI: I keep my electronics LOCKED in the glovebox, and leave that key at home. :laugh: Plus I made sure my suspn was set at 360mm front and rear so they cant get me for too low or ground clearance issues. Oh, and I use plain looking R34 mags............... as the one thing I dont want is a trip to Regency.

Good luck.

Brendan

thanks for the sympathy guys :laugh:

i feel like im the victim of government and media propaganda!

whilst he had me in the car park a moto flew past and a kid spun it up leaving the car park!

now if i were doing something wrong i would gladly accept this as punishment, but im gonna

have to deal with this making them happy..

yeah i diddnt have time to pull of the pfc and no doubt they would have found it as they serched

my whole interior including the glovebox!

Remove the bleed valve. Wont pass. Front mount might be OK as long as its secure and doesn't protrude underneath the front bar. 2 way? Depends on the inspector. I'd add some Redline LSD additive to make it slip and thus quiet it down....

Talk about a bunch of pricks. Sorry to hear that mate.

I'd offer you spare parts but they're all still on the car.... Not many mods on mine yet, keep having to spend money on body work :laugh:.

I dunno about anyone else, but I think this is starting to get beyond the joke, something has to be done to stop these bastards in their tracks. We need cops that stop crime instead of discriminantely fleecing certain members of the public & making them out to be the crims instead.

Regency's become just another gold mine like speed cameras to fill the government coffers rather than keeping genuinely dangerous/unsafe vehicles off the road & it's just plain irresponsible that they're turning a blind eye to all the over polluting rust buckets on the road to make quick cash from vehicles they know will see the light of day again.

    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
