how did u go m8? ...i failed :banana:

ride height was apparently too low even tho its stock and i passed with exactly same suspension setup 2 months ago... then apparently blue globes are illegal - wtf... and a little piece of rubber that goes onto engine mount had a small crack on it...

i know i shouldnt, but i lost my temper and told the guy that it all bs... he also wanted to defect me for not having all 4 screws in my front number plate, but i got so pissed off at him that he asked for second opinion and eventually let it go...

i swear regency is fkn tough now...

sorry mate, didnt have much time to talk to u there... i was late coz i got locked in my own backyard lol

Yeah i passed but second time through mate....it was good to at least say hello i guess...I had to change my rear left strut, tie rod end boots, and get the brake lines secured with a hose clamp....so i took a quick trip to Sinergy....the guys there are top blokes....they were flat out and still were able to help me with a rear left strut and fix all the other shit...so back to regency i went and presto they rechecked it and i passed....the guys that i had at regency were very nice and answered all my questions to clear things up a bit for me etc etc...they did tell me about your situation Rok....and yes they do read these forums boys n girls

yeah, the two guys that did ur car are good blokes... i know almost all regency people lol... i was unlucky enough to get that old geezer...

even though we had a bit of a discussion/argument of my front struts not having those clips that the brake lines bolt up to and saying that it needs to be bolted up....its standard r33 suspension...so the conclusion of it needs to be secured with a hose clamp was a good result for both of us....

well done getting off defect!

and damn, whats with all these bad stories? the two different guys I've had were absolute champs!

guess its my tall and charming appearance that works every time?? :banana:

so Krishy did you have your appointment they tell you fix A B C and that day you went to sinergy and they fixed and you went back to regency without another appointment and they cleared you?

Spot on Steve

When they boys redefected me at regency....they said get these sorted out....drove to sinergy and told them to fix it all up for me....went back and its a same day recheck so costs nothing....i am very vey thankful for the boys at regency for giving me an extra 30 mins yesterday to get back for recheck....

Cheers Luke and Rick

Booked my revisit for Thursday at 3:40. Gonna take it to the cop shop so I can atleast drive it. If I go down there with a hi-flow cat and its loud, will they defect me for it? Or will they just put it on the hoist and check off the stuff I failed for the first time? This baffle plate cannot be good for this car, its so slow the turbo barely spools.

u mean this thursday (16th)?... coz my recheck's this thursday at 3:40 too

Yeah this Thursday :P

I heard a little rumour from a good friend of my dad who used to work at Regency. Apparently a young driver went to Regency and he had a few little things wrong with his car but the inspector gave him the benefit of the doubt and passed him. Not long after he was in a car accident and his family is now taking Regency to court because they passed it when they shouldn't have. So I think now they are just failing for everything they find to cover the ass.

If it is actually true that is.

the yellow one and the red one are both same Rok

lol your car might have been sitting too low lol....didnt have a problem with getting my barge on there

they are almost exactly same, but i've been on both and i think red one is slightly less steep to get on it... i always hit my front bar on yellow one had no problems getting on red one. but it wont matter much next thursday coz im putting stock springs on lol

when i took mine in last year i only had to drive over the pit where the trucks usually go, no ramps

According to the guy that was inspecting your car...that if your ride height was fine then he might have let you off on that one

when i took mine in last year i only had to drive over the pit where the trucks usually go, no ramps

Yeap i have been on both....hoist and pit bays

depends on the day really as to what you get....

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
