Defect Station/rbt Rundle St

[sinistaGTR]

As topic says, we just got through in the wrx as its loud as f**k but luckily i saw it first and took the boost controller out in the u park lol

[Cubes]

lol.. its worth paying for 1hr in u-park than being defected.

[sinistaGTR]

we were actually shopping then we came back and saw them with about 5 imports pulled over....so the missus drove it out, played dumb about the exhaust i popped the hood they were looking for boost cont and a bov...found nothing and they were actually good about it, helped when this green wrx decided to be a dick revving it after they pulled him over and i just shook my head cop got a smile on his face lol saw that we werent some hoons lol

Don't you love how they think an EBC + BOV = hoon. Wankers.

When are they going to start taking some of the leathal rust buckets off of the road instead. I know a guy at work that drives around in the biggest POS of a datto 1600 I've ever seen & he's an engineer. Not that he can't afford a better car, just doesn't want to spend money on one.

Not too hard mate,

Looked for a fmic, checked the bov was plumbed in a dnchecked the boost controller. Though if you had anything suss like a bright blue part or coloured vac lines im sure that would change

... i popped the hood they were looking for boost cont and a bov...found nothing ...

Didn't think boost controllers were defectable?

I contacted my insurance company to tell them i'd installed a boost gauge and manual boost controller and they were fine (i.e. i email them my intent and said in the email they better contact me if it's a problem and they never did so i assume it's alright.)

When you say plumbed in do they use torches to check its plumbed in to the inlet pipe? Mine looks as if its all plumbed in but isn't down at the afm to turbo pipe which can't be seen anyway. The bov is blocked using the old coke can trick. lol.

My only real concern is with the catch can setup I have.

I have T'd into the cam cover to plenum hose and run a pipe directly down in to a catch can under the inlet manifold. The PCV is blocked but looks like its connected. The passenger side cam cover's breather uses the std piping route to the inlet pipe but again isn't connected instead routing to another catch can. Its all using the std nissan hose clamps, brass t piece is smoothed and painted black so doesn't really stand out.

Time will tell I guess.

webng,

The insurance companies are all good with modifications but they 'assume' the mods you have are adr approved. That being its on your back to have them engineered. If not well when push comes to shove..... Your shoved out the door.

[sinistaGTR]

they used a torch mate. but cause its stock as they were ok didnt look too hard

[Cubes]

Bugger.

I guess it comes down to how well they know the cars. :S

Next time its on the dyno I might pull them out and see exactly how much black mist its pushing out and then decide if I will 100% plumb them back in or not.

Last time I couldn't see anything but might be worth taking a better look. There's no oil but that doesn't mean there's no mist oil shit that doesn't get caught by the catch can setup.

As for next dyno.. It appears the gtr cam regrinds pick up around 20-25rwkw's so I'll definitely take that route.

I can't see mine making 290-295rwkw on 15-16psi of boost though. Would be nice but.

[Cubes]

Most of the people I know have been defected when driving to the shops and back. :S

Just a random pull over.

I was pulled over driving to Marion shopping centre. Just as I turned left off diagonal road on to Marion road (which is right on the corner of Marion shopping centre) a defect station was setup on both sides of the road. Both traffic lanes were stopped, I was 3 cars back in the right lane ready to turn in to Marion, the police officer walked past the 3 cars and told me to pull over. :S

Luckily it was only tint on the front windows he was worried about so that came off quick smart and kept him happy. :S
