On the way to work this morning and dandenong TMU are pulling over cars, letting most through until yes you guessed it the saw me :banana:

so the copper is looking under my car for what i dont know, then asks me to pop the hood. after a few mins of looking he asks me where is my bov? i dont have 1 sir

then he proceeds to keep looking, after a few more mins he tells me i need to put the stock air box back on (granted) as i have a cooler.

in the end i get a defect for a small crack on the front right indicator, my hand brake witch had 7 clicks and not the 6 allowed and for the air box,

so all in all it wasnt to bad :banana:

The handbreak is total bull shit!!!... ...There are plenty of cars out there that are setup with way more than 7 clicks... ...If I really really try... ...I could get more than 10 clicks out of it... ...it engages after two clicks and the rest is all tension in the cable... ...And anyway... ...You're meant to push the button in when you put the handbreak on and then release the button once it goes tight... ...If you're using your handbreak correctly you'll never hear the clicks...

My dad's car has an old slide hand break and it would have about 15 clicks on it... ...Good luck giving him a ticket for that...

A small crack in the indicator is crap too... ...Unless "white" light can come out... ...There are so many crappy cars driving around with sun faded tail lights and indicators that don't get defects it does my head in...

Your GTS-t will have a BOV... ...but most likely the stock one... ...Which doesn't vent to air...

He has got you with the airbox as you said... ...But I wouldn't stand for the other things... ...I keep my car stock because I use it for work and I've been pulled over a few times now and have been told that I've got things on my car which I clearly don't...

He was mainly pinging the guy for the airbox. Don't they need 3 issues to write you a ticket?

The other two are just rubbish like bent license plate, etc.

Fix up the obvious and they'll ignore the rest.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
