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.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
