I got defected last night at RBT, the cops are bad, mad, craszy..... I did nothing wrong, they pull me over for a test, I was fine and then they say my exhaust is too low. I been pull over at 9.30pm, and on the defect paper he put down 8.15pm. give me 24 hour to dirve, I said to him, I need just one working day to fix the problem, may I get a bit extention time, His said to me if i keep asking he will call tow truck to tow my car away!

i'm driving a r34 gtt in adelaide, which is not may parts aroud. just wonder is the r33 catback exhaust and and r34 the same or can fit? and my stock tyre is 225/45/17, now i'm using 235/40/17 is that ok at regency? also the rear left shocker is not good, is that ok at inspection? or else change the pod fillter I'm all stock.

thanks guys

I think you could make an R33 exhaust fit - it will certainly bolt-on to the turbo/dump pipe, but the mounts might be slightly different. I would give it a try if I was you.

tyres are fine.

shocker they may or ma not check.

pod filter is fine as long as it is fixed and doesn't wobble around all over the place.

Thanks mate, that would be great help. PM send.

Another question, you know the r34 xenon head light. I put it back to hid 8000k. what should i do about it? Should I remove it and put the H1 on it or i should put a 4300k xenon builb?

Shoot to down to exhaust technology, they should be able to help you get through defect with your current exhaust.

Did they measure the height of the exhaust? 100mm clearance is what's required.

Where abouts was the defect station?

No they didn't measure, the defect me at RBT! on port road just pass killkenny rd towards city on saturday nigtht last week. they just say it is too low. I measure myself at home, lowest point about 9.5cm. I can make my car up a bit easy.

thanks for your help, I will go to exhaust technology, where about's they are? Is it in city on gouger st? if I don't pass the first inspection do they take your old parts away?

thanks mate

I just called regency. they said coil-overs are ok, must be on the right hight and no leaks. exhaust 90 db. after market bov can't pass, even you pump back. anybody tell me why the HID head light is stardand in Japan, here complance remove it, and put H1 on it. so if I use a 4300k hid builb, can pass the inspection or not.

regency will pass u with coil-overs? is this true? :O

True, very true. I rang up the regency, they put me through to the inspector , his said he can not pass after market BOV, even you pump back. but he will pass coil- over if it is on the legal hight in good codition.

sorry to hear mate! i have to say this but cops need lifes and defects r crap!!! how can the sound of and exhaust be a danger? man seriously they should look for things that could actually harm and be dangerous!!! i know this has been said loads of times but its crap hahaha

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
