Yeah, damn those cops that catch you breaking the law :P

Obviously the cops have done their homework on whats legal and not on a car.

Do we do our homework on what we should fit to our car (or how to be discrete in fitting it) before coughing up the $ before doing the mod? No, we'd rather have a cry about it on the SAU forum.

The cops are getting smarter ... we're not. Simple.

:)

i wouldn't say all of them are getting smarter! my mechanic had his r34 defected for the intercooler and pod filter! he said it was uncompliant and he was convinced that his r34 was a r32! and the thing is the car went through regency exactly the same way just a few weeks before!

So what :) One dumb cop for every smart Skyline owner? The odds still favour them.

Play it smart. Be smart when modding your car. Be polite and take it on the chin when you get caught.

I keep a small folder in my car with a copy/receipt of all the work done to it and copies of ADRs which apply to my car, so I can prove the Stagea is roadworthy. Any mods which are debateable are kept discrete.

So far ... Cops 0 - Ruby 4

Anyone getting defected for bald tyres deserves the defect - jesus christ people spend a shitloads on engine mods but skimps out on the tyres which is what puts the power to the ground and keeps you from sliding off a cliff... wtf!?

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
