The new law doesn't allow P platers who've got their licence after 1st of July 07 to do any modifications which increases the power output of the vehicle. Any modifications will result in a max fine of $1100 and 3 demerit point loss.

A pod COULD increase the engines power output which will equal a fine and loss of points.

Yes, that's right. They're (government) slowly putting the different types of laws in, they're not throwing them in all that once.

1st of Jan 07 was the alcohol rule, 1st Jul 07 was the no turbo/supercharged etc rule and 1st Jul 08 is the P1 and P2 thing. You can double check on the arrivealive site.

ok well today i tested car with pod on and then put stock air box back on with a newish "magnaflow" filter, honestly i can not tell the difference really pod makes a little extra sound but nothing major and maybe just by a little bit faster, so i think i will be putting the pod back on with a cold air intake when i take the air box back off, that should help it out a fair bit.

honestly though in the end don't bother if you dont wanna get pinged for it, not worth it. I've got extractors and full exhaust done so i can get done for that if they want.

    • I am probably calling this too early but I think I found what part of my problem is. I have a couple of dents that are fairly close to each other and I tried to fix them individually. Recently I put one larger coat across all the dents and sanded it and for the first time ever it's all even except for the edge where the bare metal is, I just need to put some putty there. I'm ordering some better longer blocks that are more flexible. Other good news is that the other repairs on my panel are flat even with the guidecoat. It's these 2 dents which are an absolute c*nt l lol.
    • Murray will have better input, but I'd be going with less filler, and aimed at the low spots mainly, and hence won't need as much sanding, which then means get the guide coat on earlier. That's how I'd do it, BUT, I'm not a pro, I'm a DIY hack who will then get the shits halfway through, and have one spot awesomely repaired, and the other spots look like a 3 year old was left unsupervised with workshop tools...
    • Where is the most common place to locate it? Disappointing that Garrett won’t make a fitting for it since they know everyone will use it
    • A HICAS fault really should not cause the engine to go into limp mode. These cars are so old that the systems barely talk to one another. The thump might be the lockoff solenoid valve for the HICAS (the safety valve) getting closed, to lock the rear wheels "straight". I say "straight", because when my HICAS used to shit itself before I took off and nuked it from orbit, it would lock up with the rear wheels wildy non-straight and you'd need 45° of steering wheel to drive straight. Take off and nuke it from orbit. First step is to pull the smaller of the two plugs out of the HICAS CU. See if it stops misbehaving. You can also (whilst leaving it plugged in) try to get the HICAS CU into diagnostic mode by doing the pedal dance, or by connecting a CONSULT capable diagnostic reader into the car and seeing what it has to say for itself. Can't do either of these with it unplugged though. 1st gen HICAS is a ballache. I would do a complete delete. I did do a complete delete.
