woah! what on earth did you do wrong?

Something like 35 visable points on my transport history.

Another 30, which shouldnt be visable as I won those case's in court.

loss of license a few times + good behaviour bonds.

you're bad ass!

cute and cuddly on the outside,

but brutal and mercyless on the inside

how'd you get off? and wat was it for?

STORY TIME!

FYI my insurance quote is 6k, im sure as hell not paying to insure an old R32 for that mucg

Go somewhere else. I hope you at least have 3PP?

+1

+1 for ghey public transport

also lads does this sound right

water temp between 70-80degrees, oil temp around 50 degrees and oil pressure between 2-3kg/cm2

Depends what you are doing. That oil temp is a little low for my liking. If you have a cooler, does it have a thermostat?

has greddy oil cooler, usually the oil pressure is is around 3-4kg/cm2 but today since its boiling hot outside and was driving for a good 45 mins to an hour it was down around 2.5-3/kg/cm2 when i got home..

not too sure on the thermostat, im guessing an aftermarket oil cooler would have one? (reading the oil pres from a greddy pressure gauge)

sorry for the noob question but yeah still learning :(

Can't. Shannons and Just Cars being the only ones who will insure an import and insure me. No main stream company will either insure and import or insure me with current history.

Greddy one should have a thermostat. Thinking about it 50 is probably OK for general driving, it will get much hotter at the track. I don't look at my guages much general driving. My oil pressure guage reads in PSI so I dunno about that. It will get thinner (and thus drop pressure) as the oil gets hotter. It really doesnt matter what it's idle pressure is, as long as it isn't 0, as long as it has good pressure once you start to rev it don't worry.

I hate F*ckers that dont have 3PP. Means when you f**king crash into me its more hassle to get my money.

@ oil pressure - in my 32, on long long drives, when i was idling at the lights my oil pressure would often sit just above 0, however once i started driving it would go sweet again :P

@3pp - yes me too, specially considering i have been hit twice, both not my fault, in the past year :(

@tris, no trophies now on the 14th :( They are having a seperate trophy day now at lakeside on the 5th december. Also probably means no BBQ :P

STORY TIME!

To cut a long story short, coming from Noosa with a small Police station and a rather well known family, coupled with either my cars or dads car on top of my attitude resulted in lots of tickets.

Started off on the wrong foot, was starting to get tickets as soon as I got my license, mouthed off every time saying I would have their job, sue them, the works.

I would take a ticket to court, using a Solicitor, I would win by either being right; a loop hole or Police agreed to take back the ticket if I didn’t proceed for any damage and or losses (they knew they couldn't win and wanted to save face).

Shortly after, I’d get done for the same thing, nothing Police officers throwing their weight around trying to teach me a lesion and show me THEY ARE the boss. So, I’d just take that ticket to court and win again.

I also had a Police officer put up on harassment, which pissed of his work mates, had numerous media story attempts which the Police stopped and I had to sue Queensland Transport back for my license at one point as I was able to prove I never meant to have a suspension at that time, thus I wouldn’t have been driving on a suspended license, thus I wouldn’t have been caught drivinf without a license.

The way I spoke to that nanna at B&R is how arguments on the side of the road used to be with Police, understandably they threw every conceivable ticket at me for being a knob head, albeit them full knowing I would fight each and everyone, so it didn't matter if it was a ticket for one thing or four things.

But at my cost not theirs. So like they cared. My dad gets along pretty well with the Snr Sergeant up in Noosa, has let me off for driving like a clown while he has been in his private car, outside of work, pretty much said His officers want my license or my car for keeps. It’s about 25% of the reason why I moved to Brisbane.

Plus, running from the cops full knowing they couldn't prove it etc.. Dog chasing it's tail, issue me with silly tickets, go to court, win, be an even bugger out of spite

Good Man :(

Will it help pick up more wind power?

I never said I didn't have 3rd party, did I :(

That, is still around $800 - $1k. Might be less as I've had a pretty good run the last 12 months.

im still waiting for the explanation as to how you got so many points, and got off 30..

Defects, un due noise, a couple of speeding tickets, sealt belts. Times these and a few others. I'll bring my Transport print out to BnR lol. wont have the most recent 3 points I lost the other month though

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
