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)

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
