They have ECU controlled values. Therefore they are legal.

Which is the bullshit part of the Victorian law - you can have a ECU controlled valve from the factory - but cant install one aftermarket... :rolleyes:

Just to confirm - police can tick major and rwc for any defects yes? I was fairly sure it's completely discretionary, but just wanting to confirm.

It use to be that they needed to find 3 defects for it to be a major but i dont think that exists any more, either that or like a lot of other things they vic pol do they just ignore that and do what they like.

When i was defected they only picked 2 things and made it a major.

He got me for 2 things without even opening anything (too low (he got under the car and measured) and bald rear tyres (camber wear)), even as he handed me the fine he pointed out that the steering wheel was illegal (momo race), if he had have had a look inside he would have found the boost controller and hand controller for the power fc, some times your just better off to cop it sweet cos it could get a lot worse!

Apparently getting an EPA in the mail sometime soon after tonight... Manual boost controller, intercooler+pod and possibly exhaust, heres hoping i dont.

"It looks a bit low"

"....LOL its stock height"

"Yeah but what about the exhaust"

"....it's the same height as stock"

Meanwhile my cars parked in 25cm high grass..

It's how I bought the car, I wouldn't be stupid enough to put it in plain sight where the previous owner has an would have kept the stock airbox but I suppose you always get caught out in that week where you say "I'll fix it tomorrow"

Hey guys just purchased a GTR from SA (yay) now I got it mechanically looked over everything is great apart from brake pads and discs needing to be replaced and just a few minor things..all of it im going to fix..i just need a leeniant rw tester just to transfer it to vic. So if anyone can help me out with someone they know please.

Thanks james

If it's stock just go anywhere.. Not really any 'lenient/dodgy' testers anymore

You should be ok if it's transferring to your name as opposed to clearing defects

Good luck

Mmm I know what you mean but after chasing a rwc to sell my last car..i took it to 3 different ppl and they all picked on different things literally :/

so just want to see if anyone here knows anyone.

Selling a car and transferring it into your name are different things, if you let them know your intentions they should be a bit less fussy as you will be driving it and it won't come back onto them for not being tough on the rwc.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
