Safety cert = RWC doesn't it?

Yeah mate, but not all mechanics issue the certificates.

Try Russel at Autofine performance Labrador, not sure if he does them but he will point you in the right direction.

Oh, I realised that. Most mechanics that do it advertise it as a roadworthy check/certificate (RWC, at least the local ones here seem to), but what you get is called a safety certificate. It's been like that for a few years (along with the changes on selling a car registered with a SC etc)

Ok i would check with the D.O.T. first what the legislation is on some of those defects, because they cant defect you on some shit that they make up.

Fair enough ride height under 100mm you will get done and a bald tyre, but front mount not having mesh thats a new one.

Air filter wasnt it secured properly.

yeah tyhe airfilter was secure but he said that it had to be in a box. he said the intercooler had to be meshed. and the grill (gtr imitation) had to be meshed up aswell. the guy was a loser. when i explained to him thw auto thing he was like (oh im not a skyline speacialist, if its ok then the mechanic will know)

the bloke was a loser

Last time i checked in QLD we only need to secure our pods not actually box them as well.

that is correct. they only need to be secured, not boxed.

check out my thread in regards to something similar to what you've just been defected for -

what is the best way to secure a pod??? I dont think mine is secrued, I didn't know it had to be??

Well zip ties are out of the question.

Some type of metal bracket secured to a solid fixing point.

      Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
