coming home from work tonight, driving through eltham i got breath-tested.. had been at work all day plus i hardly ever drink, but the lady officer gave my car a second glance and asked to see my licence.. she then walked around my car to find my discreet but still visible P plates... then she let me go!! boy was i nervous...

good to see the cops going easy on the new shitty green P plates and rear window tints.. they are harder to see than the old red ones, but still we get the benefit of the doubt. :)

sorry for possibly irrelevant thread but it was the first time id come across cops in my skyline, and to come out alive with demerit points still intact felt so good!

Man I know the feeling, with all the horror stories I've heard I get stressed & would end up sweeting like a pig in fear the minute I see a cop car near me, so far my stock car is doing a pretty good job of blending in with the surrounding commo, falcon & camrys that the cops don't seem to notice me much at all :)

Once I had a cop walk onto the road, showed his badge & pulled up the riced lancer next to me (for a defect check I'm guessing, since both of us weren't speeding), while the other cop with the speed gun, saw me slowing down as well (since that cop walked on my lane 1st), giving me the hand signal to hurry up & be gone... by the end off it I was sweeting like a pig, coz my car was missing a water cap for the window washer & I have heard people getting defected for that...

haha reminds me when i was at an intersection;

my r32, commodore, riced up lancer.

We all took off normally from the lights, until the commodore next to me turned on his lights and pulled over the lancer.

Turned out it was a unmarked commodore cop car. Dodged a bullet there i reckon lol

i remember what happened to my gf. she was at the lights at burwood hwy - a done up s15 200sx pulled up along side her impreza. he looked over, saw that it was a woman driving, gave her a smile, started reving.

Lights turn green - burnout, blowoff valve, big exhaust, 0 - 100 in 6 seconds - 4 seconds after that , WEEOOOWEEOOWEOOOWEEEOOO - there was an unmarked commodore ss behind him that saw the whole thing.....

gf had a good laugh as she passed his now stopped 200sx

I'm actually happy to hear this.. when i first started seeing/not seeing the green ps under tints, the first thought i had was of the Police fining people for it.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
