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

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.

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.

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
