Defected

[heslo]

Just borrow a standard ECU from someone here or go down to Japanese Import Spares and they can loan you what you need to pass Regency

[DSTROY]

hide powerfc in standard ecu case.

it has been done in the past, but i think regency could be on to that these days, its a big risk.

[Nightcrawler]

17's are standard on R34s, so 18" is definitely no problems. FYI you will have a tyre placard sticker in your drivers side door-well for next time (if you don't have one Regency will fail you purely on this fact).

[Luke_ENR34]

or in your glove box

[Madaz]

On suspension note R34 is not compatible with 33

most exhaust places have db meters to test your levels

[cruzin33]

9.5's on the rear will be out of track.

You'll have to shove a set of stockies back on it.

I always thought that track was from the hub so adjusting the hub distance(s13 coilover conversion to a r31) sorry im a lil lost here

i think what they are trying to say is that with wider rims, it increases the width from outside to tire to outside of opposite tire. i think?

[Luke_ENR34]

didnt they recently update the rim inch so u can have whatever size you want aslong as its not sticking outside the guard.

i swear i read something somewhere. need to go searching

[Import S13]

that sucks dude, but like everyone has said just return the car back to stock form other then the fmic and pod.

tyer placard would be on the car somewhere and you should have showed him, besides, cops have books with all that info init. should have told him to get off his ass and look it up.

DONT try and pass with a PFC computer, not worth the hassle and your car will be fine running the standard ecu.

coilover will deffently NOT pass. dont use aftermarket sus at all as they will be very picking on it and if they dont know much about the brand they will ask you to change to stock.

also, even though your rims are legal. i never take the chance for them to do me for some load rate reason or something stupid like that. stockies are always the best bet or a set of 17's that arent as wide.

marky at ET can do a rental exhaust system for you or spot weld a silencer and remove it after for a small fee if your not to confident on DB limit.

i always like to take no chances with regency though so its up to you, im realy fussy about it.

might see you at regency dude, im defected aswell and sorry for the noval haha

doesnt sound right. people would be going around with 22ichx8 wheels everywhere. ?

anyone know bout the front strut brace ? should be ok.

will the car have to be re tuned etc if I rip the powerFC out. Is it a straight swap ?

i think he means only width wise, still the same 2 inch rule for height

lol yep your right.

what about tubbed cars then ?

[heslo]

The PFC will hold the tune, it's written to the ROM on the board... just switch them over and then switch them back... not a drama

nice.

howmuch for a standard ECU. ? should be too much? would be cool to borrow one somewhere, but if they are cheap enough might as well get one for future dramas/.

[Madaz]

uxcuse my comments before about suspension thought you had a R33

[heslo]

Should be able to pick one up cheap here from the forums or even a wrecker... don't quote me but probably around $50-100

[JDM032]
