This is the biggest worry.

You will get hardly anything aftermarket through once that is done.

Pretty much 100% stock as a rock. Exhausts won't pass, no boost increase, pods and intercoolers might not even get through.

Definitely a worry. Those with rebuilt motors will have to ensure they keep all the quench standard as opening up the quench has emissions go to shit.

Thicker headgaskets.. poor emissions also. :P

Sorry to hear Darren,

if you need any other parts, post it up and I might have some lying around

I have a complete stock diff assembly at home also, but this may be needed as my 1.5way is showing signs of wear

thanks. Looks like i only really need an rb20 afm - or a r33 series 1 green sticker one

Im wondering if they would let my Bilsteins through??

I can get em set to std height via the circlip. Manta racing will machine a groove to put em up to std height for me.

Just gunna paint em black and set then to std height, and hope for the best :laugh:

suspension requires a vis check

shite, u learn something everyday!

When i got done about 1.5yrs ago the copper told me that to go to regency you needed to get done for something emission related or more than 3 things!

like when i got done............for an out of date LPG tank

got it tested, could hav basically walked into a cop shop with the paperwork and got it cleared, but got sent for VIS instead :ninja:

The nice policeman politely showed me on the front of one of his books the list of thigs which either require a VIS inspection, or just a police station clearance.

Suspension shows a vis check.

Then he tells me "If it was an oil leak, that only requires a trip to the police station. See here".

The funny part was he was looking for what height the car is supposed to be std. He then sees r32 GTR and says "Yes, see it says here 275mm..." I then proceed to show him in his book that mine is listed as a r32 GTST and yes, the height is supposed to be 360mm (I cant remember now though for some reason...too much trauma) not the 275 he was going to measure.

so how much too low would u hav been at the 275mm height?

or wouldnt it hav been too low?

im at 330mm in the front, 350mm in the rear.

@ the correct height, im 30mm too low in the front, and 10mm to low in the rear.

@ 375mm (if this was measured) id obviously be 45mm too low in the front, and 25mm in the rear.

    • So, they admitted via message that they accidentally sent me a non Hella product. Then, hilariously, out of nowhere I get questioned about the legitimacy of my BMW intercooler for sale. This is the first *ever* enquiry in over 18 months. WIthin 8 mins of me telling "Total Engines" that I'd be reporting them for selling knock off's.
    • I don't know what it is supposed to look like, but I'd suggest confirming with Hella whether it is genuine. Some of the photos online do show parts with a Hella stamp on them. This looks sus.
    • Couldn't help but share the pics of my $350 "Hella" oil level sensor that arrived from totalengines via eBay today. It's like they're not even trying anymore ... And I think that's sad. 
    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
