Na you wont get fined if u extended ur yellow stickers, thats all u need to do. I try that on my wrex few yrs back, the cops cant do nothing about it when u got yellow.

Yes, pay just over $80 the first time, then just over $50 each time after that. I got my yellow mid-august & have had 5 inspections in total. I would much rather have been able to use that $300 for something else.

Oh, and then end up like me on the 22nd as I'm on my final extension, after which it will be illegal to drive my car on the road. Apparently I wasn't even meant to be given this one, so if you want to a rebel & have a sticker on for 4 inspections over a few months instead of just clearing it go for it.

Got the yellow, had an inspection with a list of things to be fixed up & that included getting permits (mostly due to the turbo). Applied, 3 weeks later get a letter saying application is rejected. So I had to re-apply, 4 weeks later I got a pre-approval letter. (another couple of weeks in between this while I got the car sorted with changing some things over) Got all the stuff done for engineering & then was being told the emissions test I had done weren't what they required & they left it up to me to find out what was. This was just before xmas & new years where everyone is on holidays, so I lost a couple of weeks there. Then I find out from a guy at vehicle safety that what I have is correct for the emissions report, so I lost 2-3 weeks when I could have handed it all in. That went in the week just gone so will hopefully hear back in a couple of weeks time depending on what sort of backlog they have at the moment. Then I can take it over for permits & be done with it.

Oh and for the last few months my car has been de-tuned to 50% power so it's not even fun to drive :D

Lol... but i didnt get charge for that much because the inspection guy said no point to keep coming here so he gave me 2 months extended twice for the yellow so the cops wont be bother about it. So i just leave it :D I only got the yellow for stupid tint anyway and all the modification already got permit for it.

8 week extension :P did they change it from max of 14days after 1st inspection ??

they don't have to give you extensions, otherwise they would just give you x amount of weeks to begin with.

also, just because you already have a work order, doesnt mean it cant be added too. :P

Yeah isn't the maximum extension 14days? How did you get 2 months?

Oh, and how about actually getting the yellow removed in the end? After the unbelievable 2month extension? There IS a timelimit to getting it fixed you know....

Sorry guys i cant be able to tell u guys his name because his my friend friends, hope u guys understand. I been seen him for 4-5 yrs now everytime when i get yellow. Thats why he know me and my cars very well. I got pull over few times when i got yellow on the car for 2 months, the cop didnt do nothing about it when they saw the yellow. Worst to worst if i got the yellow i dont really cared so the cops wont be so annoying. The way i see it even u got permit for it they will just pick u anything to gave u a yellow, that how i see from my point anyway. Oh and the 2 month extension, I take out the dark tint on the window after 2 month thats how i get it off.

do tell which pits/inspector ;)

Midland pits, older big jolly (read: beergut) guy, can't remember his name but he was rather sympathetic to our cause and complimented me on the car and all skylines in general.

Yeah I got 3 3-week extensions from Welshpool & Midland, and a 4 week extension from O'Connor. They are inconsistent as f**k in regards to everything that they do.

    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
