this might sound stupid lol but im just thinking out loud here so bear with me.

So going by that they measure from your centre cap to the eyebrow if you wanted your car lower than the legal requirements you could then shave a bit off the eyebrow and then sit it lower so it is then measuring the right measurements??? lol im bored at uni

Gave regency a buzz today.

New booklet with updated ride heights.

He said the GTST went from 360mm all round to 345mm front 355 rear as indicated in this thread. :P

hmnm does mine drop 15mm too :(

do the police now have these updated guidelines

the front 10mm lower than the rear? isnt it the other way round?

if they cant get you in regard to center hub to eyebrow, then they will go and look for a part of your car lower than 100mm, if they cant fit a coke can standing up under the lowest part of the car....defect :)

Nah, I remember getting paranoid about my minimum clearance...and a friend told me about the coke can which I had absolutely no chance of going over! So I measured it a while ago :)

100mm at lowest point, mine was exhaust, easily fixed because my hangers were bent wrong when installing the high flow cat hence it was way lower than it should have been.

the front 10mm lower than the rear? isnt it the other way round?

Thats what he said.. Confirmed twice.

From memory the rear guard is cut lower than the front so possibly the reason for the slightly higher rear.

With stock shocks my rear was ~10mm higher than the front also but I suspect the front had sagged a tad.

I would think his talking about the police that defected wrongly in the first place...

either way, they undid the wrong doings of another cop, in my books that deserves praise. but noone praises the cops when they do good, everyone just shoots them down when they do 'bad', if doing your job is a bad thing.

off topic, your car looks sick in your sig.

just a tip , if an undercover cop pulls you over and doesn't show a badge , ask them to see one , if they decline your at liberty to leave as they have no jurisdiction if they cannot produce a badge

had experience with this tonight with a mate and his car

wonder how it works for me as ive flared my guards, i would expect i have an extra few mm of eyebrow height then stock.

if someone pulls you over and refuses to flash the badge........he's there to rob you or ream you.......get out quick

    • This sounds like a perfect excuse to install a Haltech R3.
    • I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.
    • A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway. 
    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as
