guys I just read an article in zoom according to this we are allowed 95db exhaust noise level, what I don't get though is in the article it said they have only to DECC approved defect clearance stations in nsw, the granvilled 1 and campbeltown 1 now I've had a defect cleared else where, so I'm assuming that you only have to go to these 2 if the police request you to go here or if the EPA defect you, otherwise it's ok to go to any blue slip place, am I correct to assume this or what? Can some one elaborate on this cheers

if they have ticked on your defect notice only one of these 2 people can clear your defect then you have to go to one of them , if i was you id go to the cambeltown guy, im talking from experience the guy at granville is the biggest d******** ,

take a picture of your defect notice post it up so we can see what your in for ??

cool thanks mate, you reckon they will engineer a fmic if i have already had a emissions test done?

my car passed emissions with FMIC , Filters , 3 1/2 exsaust , Engine mods , it is possible but i had to get a re tune done which cost me about $1000 , it was done By HITMAN in penrith , if you ever have any problems passing your emission testing as in if you cant pass just take your car there and hell sort it out for you...

did the engineer do a noise test for the exhaust? or was it under 91db?

didnt get it engineered , problem solved though as i bought a varex muffler electronic silencer kit , when i get pulled over press of a button car goes quiet , so car can be as loud as you want but press of a button makes it so quiet , good for neighbours and stuff..

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
