yes i was going to do a similar thing regarding pod filters and blowoff valves.

go tyo the wreckers and buy heaps of cheap rubbish bov and 20 dollar pod filters and just place them all in the engine bay. some cabletied to stuff and others still in the box. so clearly not doing anyhing.

then go for a cruise threw the city and get pulled up. it would be pretty funny to see what they did lol

The only time i get hassled by cops is when i break the law (in referance to cars)

I was searched and questioned once, after i had personally called the police to report a crime... Idiot cops couldn't understand the difference between behind the shops, and infront of the shops... Nor would they listen to anything we said... they even searched a muffin we threw in the bin... wtf is wrong with these people?

They don't have to have the 90 or 100 limit on them.

I asked that question before.

Also, they need to be displayed on the front or rear of the vehicle. Not directly along side the number plate.

And it's illegal to drill/cut a number plate to (It's called defacing!)

I've been printing off alot of legislation to keep in my car too.

Here is how I display my plates...

Yep, my car is dirty :D

I've been followed by the law a few times with them displayed like this and haven't been pulled over once. Wouldn't have a clue if it would conform to whatever rules they may have in place but they seem to work as they are. I just use the existing holes in the number plates and the P plates and blot the together using a M4 x 10mm bolt. Tight fit but does the job.

The only reason I do this is because I used to use those static stick on ones you put in the window, that in the previously mentioned letter was explained wasn't good enough... so I bolted the P plates to my number plates of my Subaru, the front number plate tucked somewhat conviniently under the front bumper. I figure if they can't see my Ps, they can't see my number plate either :O. Then I got the Skyline and decided to do the same thing

Have to say though, I was once told by a police person at school that magnetic plates where the best option, but if an officer on a bad day is going to book you for that, I don't think its worth the grief...

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
