But if you want to stay safe with the epa why would anyone own the cars like we do? No one keeps theirs stock and they'll always find something to drill you with... so if your in it to mod you might aswell not do it half heartedly but if it makes no diff in removing it then its no use, might aswell just leave it in.. not that i can talk lol

EPA is the ones you have to watch though, police defect you - you gte it fixed. EPA get you and you get sent to the RTA testing sites, run on a dyno til your emmisions are correct - if not you dont drive the car til it is.

never mind the court hearing you'll get if your done twice.

i just ran a new vac line from the fuel breather to the pipe on the bottom of the canister. The other line i blocked off where it joins the sensor at the back of the engine. You could just throw screws in each line and cable tie them in.

When i had my turbo done in my car and new cooler piping and all that crap my workshop removed the carbon canister... i dun know why they did it but they seem to think it doesn't do anything in particular.. it wont hurt leaving it in, they just took that out and put my oil catch tank there... still not sure exactly what its for tho...

that workshop can be charged for removing the charcoal canister is it is required on all cars as per australian standards i would take ya car back and if they cant reinstall the old one they are up for replacing it with a new one

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
