Isn't it comforting to know that, when you arrive home, put your favourite performance car to bed, put your feet up on the coffee table with a drink in one hand and the keyboard in the other, that you can then take leisure time (logged on to SAU) to

i) COP S#/T FROM UR MATES who are kind enough to say what they think

ii) let off your own steam

iii) find 1 out of 10 that can relate to your anger/frustration and then...

Go off to sleep dreaming of Whiskies Tangos Foxtrots :P

Ahh no, V8's arent exempt. I was just using the BOV as another example of modification of the intake system.

no no :P

i mean

all the chaps i see in the badlands (ipswich)

with supercheap auto air cleaners on top of there big block 253's

they seem to get left alone?

just having a lol thats all

i havent looked for any written rule, or even read the rules lol. but here's my understanding. any intake mod messes with the factory emissions setup. so deviation from this could possibly deem the vehicle emissions unfriendly.

on another note. when driving the gf's lancer, i have, on occasion, gunned it in view of police officers. they dont even bat an eyelid. same with the rav4. probably more so. but i'm not stupid enough to do that in the skyline. you gotta drive accordingly.

This may be out of line but it has the same fundamentals as 50's America when they were not so nice to african american people.

"i.e." singling out 1 specific kind of person (African American ) / car (Skyline) with the proviso that they are committing a crime when they may be just sitting there minding there own biz.

Lions also wait for the weak and young

police are racist as by my equation listed above

racism is not o.k im my books need a sleep

I think the word you're looking for is prejudiced... not racist. Unless someone bred with a skyline and created a new race? :P

The other side of pods is the increased induction noise - ie illegal based on emission of noise laws.

from what ive seen harleys must be exempt ?

The old man has quite a few biker mates and they just glide by the police at 150Db's and nothing happens..............imagine a bunch of skylines with pods and 3 inch exsausts humming past the cops?

id put $$ on the imports getting pulled over while the bikers go and party on

That's a fallacy. Cars have 90Db to play with, and the induction noise is nowhere near that. Not even the Gas2JZ goes anywhere near that amount...

I've been looking for a written rule as to why pod filters are illegal for about 6 months now...

haven't found it yet...

PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT OPERATIONS (NOISE CONTROL) REGULATION 2008

Try Clauses 13 and 20 (It took me 2 minutes to find.

Then go to decc.nsw.gov.au

As for driving in Lapa.

Have you got a fog light ticket anywhere else.

Maybe it's a hint. Don't go to Lapa on a Sunday night because you are lucky it's only the cops giving you a $81 ticket rather than the locals torching your car.

what is this place?

and locals touching cars translates to what?

laying the boot into it ?

That still doesn't satisfy me. It mentions engine noise level, and unless that has it's own rating (can't find it) then there is still 90Db to play with...

but to be bad wouldn't the extra noise have to surpass 90db???? i know for sure my sneezing sound doesn't get that loud, its as loud as a normal person sneezing

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
