Hey,

I was just defected this morning on the way back home to sleep.

Police officer added "You and your mates must be really unhappy with us defecting your little drifting event, we must have got 50 cars..."

Dunno what he was talking about, but i guess hes still feeling some sort of pump from defecting a lot of imports.

I have the following:

Front mount intercooler (cut hole through side)

Blow off valve (atmostpheric)

Greddy front strut brace

Boost controller

black steel intake pipe.

Turbo (hiflow).

What would I need to do to change them?

Any input?

In response to his comment I would of said no i am on my way home from work.

You will need to bugger off ya blow off valve.

Strut brace (prob wouldnt get told off for it but still its an A/M item so bugger that off.

Boost COntroller.

High Flowed turbo will be no issues if it's just the RB25 turbo highflowed. As there is nothing changed on the outside of the turbo.

With the FMIC have you cut up your reo bar at all? if so that may fail you. And the hole on the side just get some vac hose slice it down the middle and put that around the hole you cut for your pipe.

And I would take the induction pipe off aswell just incase.

And anything else you have done to your car

kralster, ghosting this forum.

I said to the guy im on my way home from work, i had my work gear on, reflective jacket and all, and he was a c*nt really but yeah...

I also have the car lowered, and I have 18x9 and 18x8 rims on the car. on TOP of that, i lost my f**king wheel lock nut key and I have to get a new one from Tyrepower Adelaide.

Apart from that, the exhaust aswell, 5Zigen system.

Its gonna be a long 3 weeks i reckon.

the fmic should be fine unless you've cut the reo like someone else has said! and i've also done the hose thing! i got through so there's no reason why you shouldn't with that

with the bov if you still have the standard one get it back on! i put mine on my intercooler piping and they've so far been cool with it!

i never knew strut braces were illegal! if so then the po po have been letting it pass

don't know about the boost cont! (if it's a manual or electronic one) but the intake i've got stock air box and stuff if that'll help!

as for the turbo! i think my workshop still has one of my standard r33 turbo's!

he would have been talking about the defect station they had set up out the front of mallala last weekend.

just goes to show they are more intesested in working AGAINST us rather than with us to make the streets a safer place.

having a station set up out the front of an event like that is like taking candy froma baby for them,

then bragging about it....just lame :woot:

why did you get pulled over pauly? were you driving like a ratbag?

you'll probably need to do everything that Brenton mentioned in his above post.

i dont reckon you need worry about the rims, they'll just check that your tyres have a decent amount of tread.

And even your exhaust... if you can cheekily shut it up so its under 90dB at around 3500rpm, they should pass it.

True. When they target events designed to keep the heat off the street, then they bring the heat to you, thats lame and bloody weak of them. Next, people are going to avoid these 'legal' off street events and take it onto the streets, because the cops will be targetting events such as this.

On the other side of the coin, we do have alot of import car drivers to blame for such attention. Obviously the police are doing anythying, right or wrong, to get their message across.

I thought u got fines and stuff if the police see u with a defect sticker on the front? Seen a car the other day with 2. Sucks to hear that pauly, after u got ur licence back and that.

nah ive got a clearence from the sturt police station to drive the car while on defect. theres a small part on the back of the defect paper at the bottom that will grant you clearence to drive till your regency date. ive got mine under the defect sticker.

also Tangles, when i was getting defected, they pulled in a creamy stagea and defected him too and that looked pretty stock :D

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
