2530 off, fmic is ok if you haven't cut into the reo bar, or chassis, and it is secure, secured pod is fine as long as it is secured tight, 3'' exhaust will probably have to go as it will be too loud, power fc will have to go, for safety sake the boost guage will have to go, as it is probably in the line of sight, 555's regency may just pick on, fuel pump is ok, afm will need to change as you will be taking out the power fc, boost tee has to go, and nardi steering wheel probably isnt ADR compliant so that has to go.

Good luck!

Aww man thats the biggest headf**k ever

can the power fc controller just be removed and the ecu left alone or does the whole thing have to come out?

defects suck (N)

quick question, dump pipes allowed?

mate just went through with his 3" dump pipe and cat on, but with a factory system from the cat??

you can go through with a full zorst as long as it is under the legal DB limit......i went through with mine just had it quietened down and presto.....so the exhaust size doesnt matter...

will a s2 turbo pass through regency or will it need to be the s1 r33 turbo?
I think your series 2 turbo should pass fine as they look identical externally and it is a factory Nissan part. But make sure all factory boost lines are in stock positions and you are not running any bleed valves or T pieces or ebc. Just run the factory boost solenoid wired on standard mode not on high boost mode all the time. And all should be sweet!! good luck :P

They dont take the cover of the ECU to see if its stock. but they do now look for holes for the hand controller. thats how they got me last time I went through. If they find that they automatically think you have a Z32

injectors will have to come out as the stock ecu cant run them.. unless u get a remap but thats $500

OR you could try putting your stock ecu cover over the top ond the power fc one and try your luck.. then afm, injectors can stay in..

they may or maynot check it..

i have been through MANY times and not even checked the ecu!

when i took my skyline through, i had my high flow on there with no heat shroud.. fmic full 3" tien high adjust AND PASSED!

they arent that picky.. they just check if roadworthy mainly unless suspicion of engine mods

Yes... they are. You got lucky

Rang up today to book my car into regency and was told that a new place at Lonsdale is opening up to clear defects on Wednesday's and Thursday's so i've got my car booked in for next Wednesday. Hopefully the guys who work there are chill.

Yeah def let us know how it goes!

Us down south need a place this way to get us off defect!

Hey, im taking my down to Sinergy for a pre inspection, but the rego has run out. Do i have to get a permit to drive it there or should i be fine.

Yep you definitely need a permit mate.....just do it on the day of your inspection and get the permit to go to sinergy first then to regency and back home .....if not the refer to VVVV

if you're thinking of driving it there unregistered, i hope you carry a spare jar of vaseline with you.
Just a quick question will a vg30 turbo pass regency as i really dont plan on doing this all again and rather have a hiflowed vg30 as opposed to a 2530?

Cheers, Chris

Yep it should pass without a problem mate....its a Nissan OEM part so not defectable....one would assume...

hmmm i think they will know that its not a stock skyline turbo.....

Nissan OEM parts are not illegal to have :P

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
