Don't worry too much about engine internals. The cops wont start pulling your engine apart. Emissions testing concentrates on the tune of the car. eg. stock ecu, camshafts and fuel system.

If your going to mod the exhaust, get it to flow but still be quiet. Think about the neighbors when you leave for work in the morning. Their the ones who will dob you in for being a hoon.

i guess its just best to get a emissions test but that costs a fortune, geez stadard injectors only flow to about 14psi and the coils are shit hehe i guess they have made the laws in this way so u can do one thing but cannt do the other so its best not doing anything hehehe

Check the EPA/Roadworthy thread. On the last page I put up a link to the modified vehicle guidelines from the EPA. Then have a look on the vic roads website for all the info you need.

Are we allowed to have a larger turbo i didnt see anything on that? also what about aftermarket coils?

Also u can put a rb26 engine in a gts-t Look at section d and e under engines

Yep sure i been asking a cousins friend he also has a r33 gts-t with an rb26 in it and he passed a full epa check he told them straight out and made it to the same spec as an gtr.

He put 3 cats in it from where the exhaust starts, resonators and oval muffler he said he easily passed in the test. He had the gtr injector which are 444cc only thing he added was FMIC and kept the box air meter but modded it abit and got an engineers cert onit and engine then some how got the engine number to display on the rego etc any ideas?

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
