The other nite i got screwed over by the boys in blue and was defected for my car being too loud and my air filter. I since fitted a much quieter exhaust and when i went for my noise test today i still failed, car came in at 96db. Also with the filter, it is totaly boxed inu cannot c it and looks very professional. but have still been told its not correct wtf????? i have since been sent to get an emissions test done now and i got no idea what they are goin to look for?????? i have also been told to remove my intercooler as its suposably a defect???

If it helps my car is running the following

Apexi pfc

3" exhaust

fmic

550cc injectors

500hp fuel pump

Z32 afm

up2 19psi

pod filter

splitfire coil

high flowed turbo

If there is any1 out there who has had to go for these tests or no what they going to get me for your advice would be great

In Queensland the standard DB for exhaust's is 90DB at 60% of your redline. So if you redline is 6000RPM, they will rev it to 3600RPM to get your DB. To pass you pretty much have to put your standard exhaust back on.

As for the Pod in the box. It is illegal unless the box fully seals when the bonet is closed. If it doesn't then defect. And everything is illegal. I dont think the intercooler is though. It will be if your bumper is off. But otherwise I'm sure its legal.

Get rid of your BOV. Put your standard injecters back in put your standard MAF back in and wind down the boost to like 7PSI and you shouldn't have a problem. Make sure you cat is good and still has the honeycombe stuff in it. and a couple of mufflers.

1995 EPA test's wern't that bad so if you do all of that, You shouldn't have a problem passing the EPA and defect.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • 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 🍻
