so if you did get pulled over for being too low in a factory fezza... what happens then?

the law CLEARLY states that no point of any road driven vehicle can be below 100mm... (i have looked on the vic roads site and it does not say "except fezza's cos they are cool and hyperexpensive"

when i got defected last week EPA was there and they tested my exhaust and i was 9db over and i am going to make my exhaust and make it more quite and around the legal limit. but im running a PFC in my car and just to be on the safe side if they do an emmisons test im gonna install a stock ecu for the test but having a highflow turbo will it still give a different emissons reading even though its running a stock computer?

An f430 has 4.5 inches ground clearAnce which is like 11cm. I'm guessing it looks low cuz the body is prob the lowest point and not a hanging exhaust

yah, but they have other models too... i'm not sure of fezza dimentions tho...

and the exhaust is not always the lowest point in a car.... mine is a custom job and is all tucked away :)

I'm getting around to clearing my EPA that I got last august.

They only show 2 places for Emissions and noise. Hoppers and Moorabin.

Anyone know of closer to where I live in doncaster east? I heard there was one in McCloud but can't find it on their website.

I have to get an EPA noise and emissions test done fairly soon and was wondering If I could get some advice? I have a R33 gtr vspec series 3, current mods are, -5 turbos, power fc, greedy elec boost controller, nismo fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator and injectors, cam gears, exhaust, and pods

I was planning to remove the boost controller, return the injectors and ecu to stock. I believe that the turbos shouldnt be a problem as they are nearly the same as stock. Do I need to return the fuel pump and pressure regulator to stock, I know Im meant to but will they effect emissions if the stock ecu is controlling them and would the inspectors be able to tell between the stock and nismo items. I will quieten the exhaust and leave it that way. Also if I refit the stock ecu will I need to get the car retuned? And is there a difference between an ecu for a gtr and gtr vspec. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

I live in Greensborough and still had to go to Hoppers to get my full emissions test done. Was a major pain in the arse. Apparently the Macleod one doesn't to that kind of stuff, which sucks coz its like 10 mins away from me.

Mcloud do that sort of stuff. They only send you there when you have had prior EPA issues. I've been to 2 noise test and a full emissions test in moorabbin. Then got another EPA and they said I must go to mcloud. Which is better because they don't have a hoist :P

Did you explain the situation?

Just said that McCleod would be a lot easier since I will be towing it there and they said that those 2 places are the only ones I can go to.

Typical Government Agency. Everything is just too hard for them.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
