Shit news mate, the luck of the draw sometimes

I got pulled over at an RTB on Monday in the GTR, no cats no mufflers :/.. Managed to get away without being inspected.. Even after I left my wallet and lisence at home :/

  • 1 month later...

so is it not illegal then to have the highmount gear? im just wondering what the go is when you get pulled over, sounds like its just for noise and emissions then..

100% of the time it will be exhaust. 90db is crazy quite and anyone with a non standard exhaust won't pass.

Then BOV and intake mods ie: exposed pod filter.

Then you are almost certainly going to be given an inspection notice. This is when things the police didn't find the DECC inspector will find.

If you use common sense you will know what he will and won't pick so be prepared before you go.

And no, high mount setups themselves are not defects.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
