got a yellow and going over the pits probably tuesday.

the motor has been rebuilt and u can obviously hear that its got big cams in it.

if the examiner asks whats in the motor, should i just tell them that i dont know, or that it just has cams?

it also has a high mount turbo.

hope i dont get into too much trouble.

No point asking interstate people about passing the pits.

The regulations we have here in WA are pretty tame compared to those in the eastern states.

Claim the motor is a standard GTR motor, with standard GTR cams and management.

The guys at the pits don't care too much about internal shit, and if the wastegate is plumbed back the high-mount will pass easily as well.

They're more concerned about height, suspension, oil leaks, noise, tint.

Make sure all of these are legal before you go anywhere near the pits.

yeah got the exhaust done on wednesday, it now has gate plumbed back, 2 mufflers, a cat and realllly quiet! even the bee*r limiter doesnt make any noise!

but lost quite a bit of performance. and it now sounds like a porshe lol.

ill tell them its all stock then.

but would the turbo / manifold need a engineer to look at it?

can you turn the idle up a bit maybe 1200? might seem a bit smoother just tell them youve been meaning to turn it back down but never got around to it. take it there warm and there is no way they will pick up any internal motor differences like forgies not that they would be illegal anyway

    • Anyone know anything about a r34 350z lsd diff conversion?.  I have 350z lsd conversion layin around and thought about chucking it in my r34 I got all the offset adapters but am having trouble figuring out on how to get a speedo reading. Any help would be appreciated thanks   (I have both speedo sensors from r34 and 350z)

    • Hmmm, seems like these things are car of the week....we bought a q50 Red Sport today too (ironically, the one I said a few posts above is probably dodgy  ) Goes good for a stocker. Brakes and tyres need doing all round and it is way overdue for an oil change, but it seems good otherwise. It was weird to be able to see (and even drive!) a car before I bought it, most stuff I get 2 or 3 grainy pics and an auction sheet I can't read, followed by a 4 month wait to see what I ended up with
    • I was able to improve to a 3:46.7 which was .5 slower than silver. I just couldn't do any better but then I was able to just link the sections so nicely and got a 3:44.6. stoked with that.  AMG around Barcelona looks good. I'll save that for the weekend.
    • hey GTSboy thanks for the quick reply. im on stock ECU  Surprisngly enough i unplug everything and replug everything, readings are still off but the car drove...ok haha So far this is what i have done. - Replaced ECU (still 1.5v) - Replaced Boost sensor (still 1.5v) Now the next thing i tried is to unplug the TPS and only plug in the Boost sensor to see if it reads 5v. No it still only read 1.5v.  Its a new boost sensor and i know i have 5v if i dont plug the sensor back in, so that means the power wire is good. So now im thinking that it might be a bad ground on the boost sensor plug.  on the FSM says the ground to the boost sensor is  a sensor ground, can i add a ground wire from the boost sensor ground wire to the the engine itself to ground it? or chassis?
