Thanks for coming - Banned.

In NSW a pod filter must be shrouded from the engine bay (to stop it catching fire and making too much 'noise') and must not be of the oiled type.

In any case, what is wrong with the stock filter/airbox? Enlarge the hole and run another intake tract to the airbox or similar.

Boost controller should be legal.

Most mechanics are only an AIS and can only provide pink slips.

AUVIS workshops can clear your defect for you (they also provide blue slips) but they won't risk the fine if you haven't fixed your defect in most cases.

in WA its legal for a pod filter but it has to be an oil type and securely mounted, AFAIK boost controllers arent legal. it gets frustrating with each state having different laws on shit most of the time

And where were you driving? And what were you doing at the time to be pulled over for the cops to "pick on you" ?

Even better, I had to put my car over the pits as it was bought unregistered / recovered vehicle. Pods were passed as soon as they were mounted on sturdy brackets, K&N oiled type on M's adapters non-enclosed. Boost controller and turbo timer were left in but turned off for the initial inspection but was advised by the inspector that they could be left on and it wouldn't be a problem.

Had to get front ball joints replaced and a few other bits done before they would pass it.

Just lucky I guess..

ok people....I didnt clear a defect notice at the RTA without a roadworthy slip im just talking shit for no reason its good for your health im telling you its not illegal if you think otherwise thats up to you

Pods are illegal no matter what!!!!!

Boost controllers are illegal no matter what!!!!!

Where do these people come from????

my son got defected a few weeks ago for a pod filter and fmic this is in sa. was told we needed a full inspection at regency . i rang regency and told them what we got done for his reply was and i quote a pod filter is not a defect if it is mounted with a bracket it does not need to be covered in . the front mount is not a defect and he told us to take it too the local police station and give him a ring at regency he will tell the police neither are defectable items and to clear the defect .

we went to the police station the copper rang they guy at regency 5 mins later we are driving away without the defect had to pay a 29 buck fee for the copper to clear the defect .

we dodged a bullet this time lol as car had other things that would have been picked on if it went over the pits

true story

cheers dean

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
