I thought it was a defect if you have an aftermarket BOV installed even if its plumbed back? I thought the only legal way for BOV is if its stock and plumbed back?

dunno mate,

came from Japan with the ssqv and it's plumbed back.

Both officers that pulled me over spotted the shiny ssqv but when I showed them the recirculated piping they let me off on it, prolly won't pass a full inspection but then again I don't carry on like an idiot on the road and I'm not a smart@ss to police.

In fact when I was pulled over more recently the officer just asked me if it was plumb-back and didn't even take a close look, said he wouldn't ping me too hard about the pod because I made an attempt to cover it up and let me go

9 times out of 10 it's up to the cop's personal assessment of you and whether they want to fine you or not.

I've never been in a car with scissor doors that wasn't meant to have them. But I have driven a diablo and aside from it being just plain too low to be as easy to get into as a more regular car, I found the doors made little difference. They were good in the shopping centre carpark as you have to get into the car legs first, meaning you need to lean out a lot. This'd be more difficult if the door was in the normal position.

I've seen someone begin to install them on an Escalade but I didn't stick around to watch the whole job. Granted the Escalade is a little bigger than your Skyline (was an ESV too) but the guy said it was an easy install. They were just doing it outdoors in a shopping centre carpark in Beverly Hills (parked next to a new Dodge Challenger ). The front fenders and the doors came off, that's when I left. I've found kits for $165US per door ('bout $180Aus). Maybe a case of 'get what you pay for' but if they'll work then they work 'ey?

The law thing'd be important too. Especially if you're driving around in an R33 Skyline on Ps with a big exhaust tip (presumably), they're gonna try and ping you for anything. Hate to think if they found something they could actually sting you for. If they don't meet ADRs they may make you get it towed (expensive). Also, the fine can be over $500 and three points (here in Vic anyway).

I say, if you can get 'em done professionally, cheap, with a kit that's previously been certified, do it. Don't forget to look at the opportunity cost (alternatives for the money). If it's gonna cost you over a grand I'd spend it on the motor, body kit or interior. Could get your seats replaced or retrimmed in leather for that kinda money.
