just to give everyone a farkin update, vic roads wants my car to be crash tested to see if the cooler affects the airbagz, how the fark are u suppose to do that without throwing the car through a wall, ive spoken to dozens of engineers and they say its impossible to test.

wtf is vic roads thinkin?

my only way out is to fit the stock cooler back on, but when i put the FMIC back on they gonna ask for it again

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This couldn't have happened to anyone better. :huh:

Although having laughed at his misfortune I bet I'll be screwed over very soon as a form of karma. Really can't help but laugh at the fact it happened to someone so deserving though :laugh:

Well just do that then and put back on FMIC once u got the RWC and defect has been cleared

this is bs im so cut, they suspended my rego till further notice aswell

Did they suspend your rego cause they deemed your car unsafe or cause u didnt get the defect cleared in time?

probably wouldnt of been wise to call VIC roads and tell them who u were etc

i knew this would have ended bad, what a pain in the ass

fark the VIC roads people for telling u to crash test your car, hows about they crash test theirs?

All our cars that have aftermarket FMIC's must be unsafe then :D

I think you guys should give the bloke a break. As telling him to go crash test his car to test his aribags becuase he has an aftermarket cooler is a bit overboard.

sall good man, half the guys on here were the ones that told me id never get a r34, im guessing most of em just enjoy taking the shiet outta me cuz they obviously cant accomplish what i have......understandable

ohh pleeease... :(

im green with envy for your accomplishments :happy:

just another update, i put my SMIC back on with my stock front bar, thinking all is well, but VIC ROADS wants a engineers cert for the stock cooler and front bar......man they just not lettn it go.

to put the stock cooler back on with pipes its cost me 400 bux, now i gotta pay another 600 for a engineers cerrt.....this is crazi

do i actually need a engineers cert if i put the standard parts on?

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
