I wprked with a gay in the city Sat Night that gave out 13 EPA notices and I am positive not one would fail the test. He just EPA every car that was louder than stock. What a joke if you ask me.

whats a pain is even when your car is legal you have to drop everything and make an effort to get it tested and all that to prove it. we should get our money re-imbursed if we pass the test I say and get it deducted from the cop that filed the notice....but thats never gonna happen is it...lol

Honestly, who's bright idea was it to meet in Noble Park and cruise to St. Kilda?? Honestly...that's BS... but you guys should have met somewhere else and cruised to another place...those two locations are like Defect/EPA heaven...sorry to hear fellas.

Yea well i dont see you orgnanising any cruises, its easy to criticise buddy but until you try to organise a big cruise with a large amount of cars you cant talk. I found it to be a very successful cruise and ask the people that came and they will say that they enjoyed themselves. It was only bad luck that this happened to us.

So I guess you could say that the event was a complete success, considering the fact that we met in and cruised to what you refer to as the defect/EPA havens of Victoria, and yet with 30 odd skylines/other modifed cars, not one received a defect or EPA.....That, and the fact that the organiser was at his own meet... :banana:

I live in Prahran and work in St Kilda and drive the 'line every day... been pulled over for a RBT once in 5 yrs... police around here have more important stuff to do and they are very understaffed so don't usually hassle drivers that much... other than the standard booze buses on Fri/Sat nights which is fair enough

far from defect heaven

fark... what a pain in the ass... I did get a breatho a few weeks back on Dandy but it was just before Chaddy

I can deal with booze buses as I totally agree that pissed people shouldn't be driving... random EPA's like what happened to the boys on their cruise and random defects are another thing entirely :(

I also live down this side... in South Yarra. For the last few months I've driven in St Kilda and Brighton almost every day during the evening, spotted a few undercover cops, but have never had any hassles at all..

My exhaust is fairly loud but I didn't get anything in the mail. I think they were just picking on the skylines.. because the Stagea and Corolla didn't get EPA'd either. :P

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
