Has anyone got through with full turbo back exhaust? People telling me I won't pass, but surely its not that loud? Never been picked up on it before. Even the cop that defected me was riding behind me for 5 or so minutes

If you had of showed up wednesday i could of measured your car as i had the sound metre in the car

Girlfriend had food poisoning from a nice little place down at Henley, no way was I driving her up to Mawson Lakes.

Is there any workshops that can test for you?

Just put a baffle plate in and walla the zorst will be quiet as

once you pass regency take the baffle plate off and your back to normal

what doesnt seem loud to us will be loud to the DB meter at regency mate

trust me and they will pin you even if your 1db over

so not worth the risk imho mate

good luck with it all

PS i have a r33 cat with baffle plate if you need it mate

I'm running a decat atm, so that will definatly have to go. Might have to borrow that cat Krishy. I'll let you know :P

Yep mate i have pm'ed you my mobile number

so just let me know when

So, what's the legalities surrounding battery relocation's?

My current battery is finished and will be investing in a dry cell/gel battery in the near future.

I'm aware that gel/dry cell batteries won't need a vent or anything when they're in the boot, but does this sort of modification need engineering to pass Regency?

The battery would be secured in the boot inside a sealed battery box with a kill-switch.

I think that if you do relocate the battery daniel

then you have to get it inspected

but us 33 owners no such problems

and i dont see why you wont pass that mate

specially if you have a kill switch for it

give sturt cop shop a call and find out mate

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
