Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Edit: This is the extract from the info bulletin 3.

Roll Cages

Due to the increased risk of occupant injury in vehicle accidents the fitting of full roll cages are not permitted.

However, the fitting of a roll cage rearward of the driver is permissible providing that:

a. No part of the roll cage is contactable by vehicle occupants when positioned in their normal seating

position.

b. The roll cage is at least 150 millimetres rearward of the front seat occupants when the front seats are

located in the most rearward adjusted position.

c. All rear seats and seat belt assemblies fitted in the rear compartment are removed.

d. The operation and effectiveness of the front seat belt assemblies is not affected in any way by the roll

cage.

e. That no person travels in the rear of the vehicle at any time.

Also, the car has to be re-registered as a 2 seater.

Wooo

Put some new plugs in my car and theres a noticable improvement in smoothness now :woot::)

Still needs the oils and clutch to be done this friday, but cheering I could work on it for a few hours (I put the stock intake back on also) and come out of it with something positive, not really often that happens :)

Once the clutch is replaced, all it'll need is a touch up tune and then hopefully I can ease up spending money on it and just concentrate on driving it.

while I was out there I also measured my ride height after looking through the regency thread, it's at 345mm front and 355mm rear. In other words, it's legal height, and therefore CANNOT be defected for too low :)

this the only part i would be concerned about, what part of your body do they measure from??? im not sure the cage would be far enough back.

I'm not 100% sure but I think they put your drivers seat to the rear most position on the rail (I'm not sure if the recline the seat as well) and measure from the very front of the cage to the very back of the drivers seat.

      Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery

      The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.

      Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.

      In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
