usually they destroy them when they take em off

So that means that if i import a car with gt2530, intercooler, coilovers, etc. there is a chance i could end up with a car missing a whole heap of parts and have to purchase stock items?

people talk bout taking parts off and hiding it in the car or just leave it in the car and install it back on later

That's what i meant to do.

Thanks,

Wow after driving a VL commodore 3L auto this skyline is amazing - handling, power, looks kills it in every way. Just be careful in the wet this thing will spin the rear wheels in any gear - it can be a bit scarry.

Great tourqe though u can change through the gears at 2000rpm and its fine, once you go over 2500 u can start to feel that turbo kick in and its wooshka from there on!

I'm on a high - hehe!!!

@ Richelieu... I get the impression that compliancers will take off all aftermarket gear excluding stereos and fit with standard items but will refit your mods after registration for a fee (increased compliance cost up to $2k more I've heard - which I guess could be worth it depending on mods).

Feelin like Big Kev.... IM EXCITED

zymotic,

Can you tell me how long compliance took for you? My Skyline just landed in AU on October 5, and is currently getting clearance from customs...My Skyline will be getting complied at the same place as yours, and i want to know how long it'll take, approximately...cant freakin' wait!!!

Congrats on the new line zymotic!

"I know it won't be quiet as fast as a WRX but it will certainly look better in my eyes" - maybe not yet, but a WRX is worth double what you paid for your line! A couple of mods and the only WRX you'll see, will be one in your rear vision mirror :)

Good luck!

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
