This is just an idea, i want to see if anyone is interested in this.

My idea is to have a "just in case thread". The idea is that you an post up items(skyline parts) that you have sitting in your shed, laundry, kitchen etc. so that if something happens to go wrong with one of our cars at an awkward time, or maybe someone has to go over regency, we can look at borrowing a part for a short time just to get things moble again. I'm thinking things like AFMs, coils, ECUs, stock intercoolers, piping, fuel pumps.... the list goes on. Items could also be bought i guess but that's up to the individuals to determin. I'm thinking of this thread as a reference to who has what.

There are a few rules that i have thought of to make it go smoothly

-the thead is only to be used as a reference to who has what, wheelings and dealings are left to PMs and the individual.

-only one post in the thread per person(use the edit function to update)

-no chit chat

-discussion kept to pm

-listing in the thread does not mean you have to lend items to everyone, the individual can choose not to lend the items for any reason they wish

-terms of the lending of the items is up to the individual. for example, costly items or people that you don't know may require deposit, photocopy of a licence or something???

Well, that's all i've got for now, if anyone has any ideas, comments etc feel free to post them up. If people like the idea we can ask cubes very very very nicely if he can sticky a new thread up, if no-one likes the idea we can scrap it!

Thanks for reading

Aaron :kiss:

edit. - sorry, sum1 took it. (standard 33 airbox - free).

edit 2. - just found a HKS (copy) SSQV BOV i used to have on my old car, pretty much brand new only been used couple months, and has an adapter to DIRECTLY bolt onto a RB25 (had a custom adapter made at ET).(cost just over $200 couple months ago with the custom adapter). Ill also give the universal adapter away with the BOV, which u can weld into the intercooler piping, so it can fit any car.

$150

maybe we should organise a r32 and r33 regency pack with std items like shocks, exhaust etc that we can have people use to get through, then all items are stored until someone else needs them?

Maybe like donate the items to be held at a single location, then lent out (with a deposit) as needed?

Obviously someone would have to keep the items to be given out, and organise it all...

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
