hey guys..

looks like ive found a buyer for my car and just wondering what sort of things are picked on for an rwc?

my car isnt big on the mods so all that stuff 'should' be ok..

pod filter, exhaust (that isnt too loud at all), not low etc

will they pick on things like the SAFC, turbo timer, boost bleed valve etc

my car isnt bodgy and im not looking for some backyard operation, but does anyone recommend any places in the box hill/doncaster area to get it done?

cheers in advance

james

most places wont pick up on boost controller, safc. Turbo timer is legal, it's not being in your car while it is running that is illegal.

They will omly pick you on exhaust if it is really loud, they wont measure the db or anything. Most places will get you for oiled pod or pod not secure, but only some will get you for having pod + cooler.

They will all usually measure height.

Then you have the other normal things, all lights in operation, safety devices like seatbelts etc, tyre tread, window screen cracks, brake pads etc

A turbo timer is not an approved modification.

It is illegal, whether you sit in the car or not.

Agreed.

Well if you are sitting in your car, then they can't tell the differance between the tt being on or your keys in the ignition :glare:.

It's never been legal; but i have never been pulled up on it, nor have i heard of anyone ever being pulled up on it.

If it is not wired up/working just unplug it and remove the unit for the rwc.

    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
    • A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.
    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
