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

    • There are black hose clamps as well if you care. Plazmaman for example sells some: https://plazmaman.com/product/black-hose-clamps-premium-quality-stainless-breeze/
    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
