nah i dont sorry, didnt take any notice, i do know the cracking rims are made in china,

not that helps much tho LOL!

i know ROH used to make them but lost the contract to someone cheaper. not sure who tho.

I used to work at ROH. they were pretty dodgy. I was on the paint line. powder coating and painting that shitty shadow chrome. Which is only silver over gloss black powder. Cheap as.

If you look on the back on wheels such as Adrenalins, Drift R's etc you will see holes in the back of the spokes. Some large some small. Not machined properly. They couldn't fix it so they just went with it.

howdy, im looking at purchasing a r32 4door with a 25Neo in it. its gotta go through regency just wondering if itl be engineerable on stock brakes with just a test or whether il have to go to r34 standard sized brakes (or bigger)? i assume someone would have done this before and im asking here as i dont have the time to mess around with forms. cheers

head down to service sa or whatever they call themselves these days, and get an application to modify, fill it out, send it in and itll tell you everything you need to get done.

yeah i printed one off just i dont own the car yet, wanna see how difficult itl be to clear before i buy it, but dont wanna take too long doing it as i dont want it to be snatched up, was just hoping i could get a quick answer here but i better send away the form anyway. cheers for your help.

this is a tough question to put a answer to...ummm

i would have thought that as long as you pass the regency brake test then it should be fine....so if your stock brakes are damn good then or if not then upgrade to 33 brakes and they are apparently easy to do hence that might be the go then

ok, thanks..

cheers for everyone who has helped me.

im happier if i stay on the right side of the law, (not that i hate modifying cars)

but when your young and look even younger it seems the cops pul you over a tad more.

any defects latly?

yeah, sunday night down the bay dropping a mate off defect station on colley tce.

Got done 4 too dark a tint 18% on drivers and 17% on the rears and also too loud exaust 104Db at 3300RPM GAY SHIT!

its pretty common dude. most have all the tools necessary to make your night very unpleasant.

yea but some of tools dont know how to use them properly ive seen then them shove the noise meter right inside the mufflers all ya can do is shake ya head

what year is it?

i think one of the minimums for an approved engine conversion is the same size brakes as found on the donor car.

i put my 32 4dr throught regency a while ago and they told me the brakes had to be the same size as the donor car as dave said. Also you have to get an exhaust emmissions test which will cost you abot 100. Then its the usual shit as per normal inspection. I had a 33 25 tho but i think it should be the same.

Father in-law got done during the week on his bike for:

To loud, LED number plate lights, non-compliance indicators, handle bars over 900mm and was also fined for a non ADR approved helmet because the 5 ticks on the sticker were no longer red, they were worn.

Police also questioned him as to which motor cycle gang he was with. He replied with a swift " It's called 'The cool kids motorbike gang' and sorry, but your not allowed".

Officer then took his helmet and stuck the defect sticker on his headlight and left him sitting there in the pouring rain. He is now fighting the fine for the helmet and is trying to find it but the officer hasn't logged it yet and its supposedly 'missing'

its pretty common dude. most have all the tools necessary to make your night very unpleasant.

hey dave, remember when my car blew 54Db LOL

that cop had the Db meter about 5cm away from my zorst, and it messed up the reading :rofl:

ahaha, that night was lol worthy. we got pretty good angle eh.

Just had a run in with the same Officer that defected me earlier this year... he popped out of a sidestreet about 20 metres behind me as I was waiting at the lights to turn right and he went up right behind me and what do you know - pulls me over shortly after for an "RBT" - atleast this time he didnt ask to pop the bonnet straight away but actually breath tested me first unlike last time didnt breath test at all just went straight for the bonnet. So yeah, bonnet popped he went straight for the standard solenoid which is located at the standard position with the standard lines... had a good long look at it and gave the line coming out of it a wiggle and that was it, nothing to defect so off he goes. Thats enough excitement for me for today! lol

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
