Yea, flamin mongrel is quick. hehe

As for the car, senior officer gave him one month to take off all the mods and bring the car back to willy cop shop for an inspection. He didnt want to give him one week as it woukld be almost impossible to fix up in 5 days. Poor flamin mongrel haha, maybe when its stock il be able to give him a better run :blink: I was tripping out, this coppa new these cars inside out. lol

mustve been a nice cop to pretty much "let him off" in the way of no defect/epa and just make him come back to the cop shop and show him the car again.

still a hassle though taking everything off and making it standard.

What about the mods made them illegal? On p's or just not done with EPA in mind etc? I've always wondered this. If p's are gone. N u enclose your pod n do everything proper. They've got nothing to get u on. Or am I mistaken? Sumone fill me in. LOL.

last night saw a white r34gt at fountain gate driving around near magid drive and also a dark colour r32 with sau stickers at fountain gate maccas. gave it a little bit as they were leaving the car park lol.

lol

mite be my dark coloured r32.

ye thats it, just dont line him up. :blink:

I was actually referring to what he got defected for, normally they pick those obvious ones so you have to get a full rwc anyway, he sort of got off light but if this cop knows his stuff it might not be as easy as he thinks, clever move by the cop as well, this way he has to take it back to a cop that knows what he is looking for as opposed to some nufty vic roads worked who will just check what is on the bit of paper.

I believe enclosing the pod does not matter here in vic, you have to run a factory air box if you have a fmic.

Looking at that car though, im guessing he has an atmo bov, pod + intercooler, adjustable boost controller (not allowed to have that at all), probably a full 3.5" very loud exhaust, too low, non padded steering wheel, no charcoal canister and a host of other things.

tmu cops have always bragged that they can defect a car the minute you drive it out of a show room so if they really want to do you (having no water in your washer bottle will get you a defect) they will find some little thing.

Wow. After reading that list of mods etc. Now I understand. Lol. U can still get some serious power if you use your head a bit though. Internals, ecu ( no hand controller) boost controller in ecu or get stealth looking one, high flow exhaust doesn't have to rattle windows.

However, who said you had to sensible wen if comes to nodding. I think tgats half the fun. To a point...

spotted a silver R34 on bourke st last night in the city, i think it was a GTR, but not sure, coz i was half way to passing out on the party bus :blink:

Was likely me. Yay finally spotted :blink:

Today saw

1000: White R33 GTS-T number plate [NAIS], shopping list stickers and exhaust on Montague St, City next to a white 911 carrera. 1 white guy in sunnies in the line.

1100: Yellow R34 GT-T Latrobe St. 2 ethnic guys.

1215: White R34 GT-T Bourke St. Had side skirts probably bomex?

spotted a stagea on springvale rd today with sau stickers

spotted a red 32gtr on bergins rd/wellington rd going into the stamford =]

also spotted a grey 32 gtst at inetrsection of burwood highway/springvale rd

spotted LEANBAC i think at knox ozone parked there

    • Give it 40psi and send it to the moon
    • I suspect 550s are on the large side for happy operation with a stock/Nistune RB20 ECU. The Hitachi ECU doesn't love short pulse width operation, and the RB20 doesn't need much fuel at idle. Big injectors can be unpleasant. This could be contributing.
    • Yeah, I still don't know why the idle speed control can't catch the falling RPMs. In the Consult logs I see the AAC duty cycle rising, but suddenly it goes lean and the engine stalls. Anyways, the relevance here is the DW 550cc injectors are probably the same. So if OP has similar issues I would be tempted to finger those injectors as problematic for whatever reason vs the ECU failing for some reason.
    • Yeah, sort of blurring two different things together, aren't we? I just meant O2 feedback closed loop. I used to have a 0-1V LCD meter on my dash, wired directly to the O2 sensor signal. So you could easily see what it was doing. Normal running it would flick back and forth nicely. Slow down to an idle and it would keep flicking, as the ECU tried to servo to maintain stoich, but it would slow down as each swing happened until it would stay at one end of the scale. As I said above, the sensor heater is not enough to keep it hot enough when there is also little heat in the exhaust flow. Give it a blip and it would start swinging again, then peter out again. Meanwhile, idle speed control would run just fine, because unrelated.
    • It's not even O2 feedback, it's just simply when the ECU sees the closed TPS signal for whatever reason the idle will start steadily dropping until the engine dies. With the TPS adjusted to not trigger closed TPS it will idle at some ridiculously high RPM and something like 6 degrees of timing. In the absence of getting eyes on it personally and a lot of quality time doing diagnostics I couldn't tell you what the real problem was but it was interesting nonetheless
