Well as much as i love my car iv apparently done something wrong to the cops, defecting me for the second time in less then 2 years.. Pay rego for it to sit in the garage collecting dust..

Well here is the sitcho. Well i got defected where else but chapel st, but befor you say u stupid c*** asif do chapel laps.. i wasnt, i live near there and i was goin to rebel sport at like 3pm during day.

ok so here is the damage:

Parcel shelf - inspect for structural integrity(previous owner cut holes for 6x9's)

Bumper Bar - inspect for structural integrity

Pod or intercooler, not both.

Windscreen - to be inspected

Tyre placard - to be fitted

So i got my stock airbox and windscreen has nothing wrong with it, think he just felt like writing more that day. But the big problem im having is "Inspect for structural integrity" went to the mechanics today and the guy said i have to get engineers to have a look at it :P... well just wanted to know if this is correct and if it is dose anyone know were and how much this is going to cost me???

Thanks for reading

I had to get checked for structural integrity when my car was being repaired.

Its not a big deal really, cost me $100 and an hour of my time. Brought the car to the engineer along with photos of the repair project, he looked at the chassis and a few other things and signed a piece of paper.

did you repair it your self?? or did you have the engineer repair it??

Repaired by my old man and uncle and then taken to the engineer for approval. Actual cost was $138.40. Took four hours from an accredited workshop. No big deal really.

      Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.

      Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing

      I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.

      Well, yeah. But I just expect everything other than my car to feel like a bucket of shit anyway. I still miss my Alfa 116 so much though. You could run over a 20c piece and tell whether it was heads or tails.
