hahahahahaha sweet rob!

i am 99% sure stealth wings are not legal as they remove the 3rd high mount brake light. As long as there exists a 3rd brake light and the wing doesn't protrude above or outside the width of the bodywork, then it should be ok.

as above..i think the main concern about police is the 3rd high mount brake light..which i rekon is a good reason sometimes..but oh well some people are abit blind and it does help in some situations...but getting a defect or a file is just shit. It should be just a warning..

A modification to a vehicle must not result in:

o Any bumper bar which does not have its ends turned towards the body of the vehicle to a sufficient extent to avoid any risk of hooking or grazing any person;

so this means truck bull bars are illegal??

Only if they kill people... :)

Thing is I think there may be laws on it, but they don't often seem to be enforced. If its an obvious danger or nice and sharp, then they can definitely defect you for it. Stupid T-wings I think are the main culprut for that - I have heard of ppl getting done for them (anyway, they're gay, so mb that is all fair :) )

No, because most truck bull bars are not 'modifications', they come out of the factory with them. :)

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
