Make sure your pod filter is secured, no oil leaks, all lights working, suspension isn't coilovers, etc.

Make sure the exhaust isn't loud at 4000rpm, as that's where they test it to. If it is, shove a resinator in the line somewhere. $50 fix.

I'm not a fan of BOV's, but if you must run one, have it standard or get a black, stealth one and make sure it's tucked down deep. I had a stealth black one in my old Familia and cops never found it.

Personally, these days, I wouldn't run a after-market BOV. The standard one on the GTR sounds great as it is, and it's 100% legal!

The more 'bling' and chromed piping under the bonnet, the more likely you will get defected. Go the stealth look!

Hehe familias ftw! My old tx3 turbo was all stealth, black piping, black cooler, even had rubber hose sleeved over some stuff... looked like any other tx3. Got pulled over many times, not one defect.

But yeh this sucks as i even posted in WTB section that im looking for factory recirculation valve the day it happened. I tried talking to the cop and being as nice as possible.. no go. I'm not a fan of bov's and really don't see the point in having one apart from the fully hektik noise they make. :P

I do have some plans for my car but it will all still look factory and stock once its done.

btw, how much is regency gonna cost me? Ill get everything sorted this week and try see if i can get away with just cop shop although i doubt it.

have been tinkering with the rolla today.

i rebuilt the carby earlier (thankfully did not have any parts left over :D ). went to drain the fuel tank so i can have a good crack at fixing the leak in it...... did not know that my mate had put a full tank in it while i was at work yesterday

/petrol bath for me

lol i have filled up a couple of small jerry cans and numerous empty glass jars with petrol and there is still so much in there.

i took the coil lead out of it so my mate does not go and fill it up again hahahahaha

surprises me that he even drove it with fuel steadily dripping out of the tank :P

in Vietnam atm, decided to go for walk 2 the casino with my nephew at bout 11pm lastnite, on the way there we accidently took a back street and ended up getting corned by a scooter with 2 girls on it and they were holding sum kind of weapon, they demanded our wallets and took bout $150 cash and also took my mobile fone, we were lucky 2 get our wallets back with ID, i dont care bout the money but its the phone im spewing bout the most as i couldn't ring optus ASAP coz the costomer help line wasnt open till 8am so i had 2 wait nearly 3 hours to bar my phone which in that time they could of made several calls on it.......now i have to go thru the crap of of claiming it on insurance

    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
    • Sorry I meant that we are building the EH for a client.
    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
