From my experience with him, he seems like a fairly decent guy just doing his job.

And he explained why the bc and wheel studs were illegal. Then gave me an opportunity to fix it up. Can't ask for more than that I guess?

:cool:

saturday nite... drive my pos even tho i knew i shouldnt have

pulled up in a servo on the phone. stopped at the entrance. car pulls up behind me and waits. i look a bit closer its a cop car...

anyways, i take off to go park next to an ultimate pump (2x 90deg turns) and hear my awesome diff doing its thing chirping its tits off on the smooth surface haha.

they pull up next to me. gimme a death stare, i jump out, "how can i help you officer?" get a reply "Regency for you mate" i look confised... "whys that?" :P he asks me for my license, then tells me "just go home, dont be an idiot" and leaves.

so here i am left standing with a roll cage, locked diff, slammed, wheels, straight through twin pipe, in primer with rivets in the rear quarter and zipties holding the thing together.

not a bad nite lol.

sounds to me like some of us are getting a little bit of a break, they're not cracking down as hard on skylines it seems?

it probably helps when the cop see's that you're not an idiot.

I don't think it is that different from a couple of years ago.

I reckon that is the main thing.

If you are a dick, and stand-offish, and argue, then you won't get any chances.

That's not to say you can't ask questions, but be civil about it.

If they see you are a decent person they usually give you one chance.

My experience with cops in general actually. If you know you've done something wrong, don't argue. And even if you haven't, don't be a dickhead :cool:

depends on the carbon fiber. if its dual layer and kevlar backed then it is legal. you still need to get an engineer to have a look at it and note down any changes in your guard eyebrow height (im assuming you got widebody guards) and change them accordingly before regency will approve it.

if its just kinezi carbon fibre then no it wont ever be legal as its a major safety risk should you hit a pedestrian or something as cf without any backing just shatters in to shards and causes an unnecessary safety risk.

      Hypergear ATR45 SAT Turbo With addons (brand new - never used)

      Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action

      Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand.

      Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!

      Hypergear ATR45 SAT Turbo With addons (brand new - never used)

      By Danowner · Posted

      I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
