Can you read or not?? I have a permit meaning I can drive the car between the hours of 7am and 7pm since I stopped to pick up some parts for the r33 on the way back from the airshow I was driving under the conditions which the permit allows.. so how does that make me a clown???

Well it kinda of does and it kinda doesnt as someone who knows a bit about the law (PM me if you want more info its somethin I'd prefer not to disclose in forums) I do know how these permits work and some of the legalities behind them..

If you interested its actually legal to drive a car on the road with no registration, no permit no nothing (there is some rules to this)...many people dont know this..certainly its flaunting the system a little and by all means its not the right thing to do..but when its the only car you have and youve spent 300bucks to go to the airshow by all means I was goign to try it..

And yes I do know how the law works and do know it is illegal to drive a car with a permit solely for transport purposes BUT there are a number of clauses and fine prints which basically mean u can do what u like on one of these permits and no i dont condone it..

this is while u will find when pulled up my an officer of the law the will check the dates of the permit, and compare vin and engine numbers on the permit to those on the car..but will hardly ever question u on where the car is going...

Mate its stated on the permit that you can only drive the car to and from place of repair or place of testing. Also it i think from memory can be only be driven between 7 and 7 Monday - Friday.

So you if they pull you over, i would be very surprised if they couldn't book you for something..

Hey Matt,

Naa its 7am-7pm all week..i do keep within those times.. Permit states the car can be driven see here

1.To take vehicle from place of acuisition to owners garaged residence

2.To travel from a licensed vehicle tester for repairs or testing

3.In the course of repairs modifications or testing.

4.Or to take the vehicle for registration.

As you can see the list is quite extensive and you can basically get away with saying anything...

I have a mate who has driven on unregistered vehicle permit for over a year now lol and I can assure you he has been pulled over more than once

Honestly though I only drive the car when I have to I also have the tx5 at the moment but its been in the workshop for a while...

But the skyline should be registered by friday so all shoudlbe good...

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
