The headlights are fine but they have to be fitted with Halogen globes, HIDs are only legal if the car is fitted with auto leveling headlights. BMW = Auto leveling, Skyline = no auto leveling.

I wish that shit was written in a place where it was easily accessible

The difference between makes is pretty stupid - one rule should apply for all cars - and the govt should be erring on the side of leniency...

not because i think it'd be easier, but our car manufacturers spend a load of money doing R&D, and that excuse is used on a contrary point of view for minor mods (like air intake, exhausts, tunes etc) - so why cant that same standardisation rule be applied for aftermarket addons that actually help? (legal and professionally installed of course)

Seems our govt thinks that the car manufacturers know it all, and ergo all aftermarket mods are done by 'hoons' even if its something as innocuous as a pair of spotlights...

this is the shit that pisses me off.... nanny state, hand holding, ignorant politician preaching crap, designed to either a) harvest more taxes or b) crack down upon personal freedoms to make the politicians job that much easier - its easier to answer the crowd when half of the crowd are muted...

*yawn*

as if politicians have a hard job... they dont even appear at parliament regularly

REPORT HIM!! I got let off before for a $580 fine because he abused me and smoked in my face, it works!! do it and don't be hesitant.. I just came out of regency too, so long as ur exhaust is lower than 90dB at 3,300 rpm then you're fine, and it depends on who you get in regency :D

goodluck!!

Yes provided the entire stock crank case ventilation system is in place and you have simply placed the catch can inline with this system. I went through regency recently with this and had no issues.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.

      It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

      Blue slip

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.
