And you have Advan Tri-spokes and are always out at Griffith...

They picked me up 2 weeks ago for a fiberglass bonnet and unsecured airfilter, those things are fixed.

They went over it this morning and found:

1. Coil Overs.. Not ADR approved

2. Exhaust.. Not ADR Approved for Noise and Emissions

3. Front indicators(holden VY side repeaters).. Not ADR Approved

4. Parkers.. Blue tint?? WTF they are white, no sign of blue at all.

5. Headlights.. Dull and faded plastic.. along with every other 33 in the country

6. Rear Indicators and reverse lights tinted (i knew that one sort of just crossed my fingers and hoped they wouldnt care)

7. Steering Column rubs on headers (he was lucky to pick that up it only does it once in a blue moon) ah well...

Most of it is an easy fix, i still have the stock suspension and all the other bits ill pinch of the GTR for the inspection bar the exhaust thats gonna bbe tricky, though a good friend of mine is an approved exhaust fitter and testing dude.

Things they should have but didnt get me for, Large Holes cut in structural parts of the body, Wheels and Tyres scrub and are way to big, front tyres stick out past the guards, RSM and shiftlight on the dash no spare or jack, lots of Mod plate required suspension mods, but now its been inspected when i take it back they only check what they listed... oh well there bad.

Now that ive calmed down a bit its not a huge deal just a rather large expensive **** around, id rather be putting the money towards my non adr approved supercharger :D

spotted a tidy black 34 tailgating me on gympie road. Had personalised plates, silver lip and some kinda F&F kinda decals on the side....was trying to catch a good glimpse of it from rear view but had to concentrate on peak hour traffic as well...nice car if you're on here! :D

a good way t get that yellow fadedness of your headlights is to put brasso on them rub in, let start to dry then rub off well, brings them up bloody nice,

bad luck with the law man

tried to get me the other week, body kit not 100mm off the ground for one, while i was sitting in it, then when he got me out of the car and tried to show me but it wasnt under 100mm anymore hah

i rolled over like a timid dog and pis5ed on myself bein overly respectful and submissive body language (probationary point) and he didnt get me for anything, hah,

i thought he had me for speeding , and he did, but he let me off,,

roll over and pis5, but only as last resort on your probationary point

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
