Hey just wondering if you can decide on which pits youd like to take your car to for inspection??

Apparently Welshpool pits are a little more lenient!!

Problem is i just put coilovers in my 34, and really dont want to put the stock suspension back in, anybody here been over with coilovers in and passed?

Also i dont know how the whole thing works, never taken a car over so a little help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

yeah u can pass pits with coili's just make sure ur car is 10cm off the ground at the lowest point. also u can choose what pits to go to.

um u pretty much rock up at the pits examination place EARLY ( around 8-9am) then u just wait in line till its ur turn to get inspected. also u will have to pay ~$80 for the fee's.

hope this helps.

Hi mate, I brought my car to the pits at Welshpool for compliance. Only just made the 10cm clearance and they were pretty relaxed at inspecting the car. Heard from my mate that they are one of the most lenient around too

Welshpool knows what they are lol...

bring a good amount of $$$...

roll your car on stockies... oh wait, yours has awesome stockies anyway so don't worry...

make sure it has a rear bar :unsure:

i think you're set to go man as far as i can think of since the last time i saw your car...

make sure the BOV isn't a loud bitch and is plumbed back and umm... the car has to be the lowest (at a minimum) 100mm off the floor with a full tank of fuel and be seated with grown adults to the cars capacity, GT-T - 5 people

if your coilovers are stiff enough it should be alright, if anything then just use some of your $$$ and get a permit on the spot, easy as, you're already there and you'll never get picked on for it ever again

dude, don't worry...

i'm broke as a f*cking corn farmer living in the sahara desert...

trust me, as for permits i have no idea how much it is but i meant bring the cash for the permit down just in case they rape you for the coilovers...

because if they don't like them and you don't get a permit, there's more unnecessary $$$ spent on an extension for the sticker and you don't want that...

end of the day, just try for it... try and get your car as stock and clean as well as tidy as possible, no loud BOV and go for it, should be okay man

let us know what happens (i'm sure you will anyway)

    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
