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

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.

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

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
