Hi,

I've read a few things on here and wondered whether anyone could clarify:

Will it pas A.C.T. rego with a turbo timer?

Also it has a reasonably loud BOV, is that an issue? Otherwise stock (changing the exhaust from the whopping canon beofre going for inspection).

Thanks

atmo or plumb back bov?

The turbo timer will pass as long as it is connect to the handbrake so when you pull it down the car will switch off

Or just hide it and turn it off before you go for the inspection

Thanks I'll check. I have no idea about the BOV?? Anyway to tell by looking? Not that I can even see it :blink:

Hi mate,

For the turbo timer, turn it off, and hide it under the dash, they will not know it's there.

As for the BOV, some shops are pretty anal about them, so what I would do if I were you is disconnect the vaccum from the BOV, and just put a little screw in the vaccum hose to keep it sealed with a little cable tie around the hose to keep the screw firm.

THis way, your BOV wont operate (without vaccum) when they drive it around, and wont be expelling into the atmosphere.

As soon as you get home, change everything back to the way it was.

Cheers

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
