I posted up this thread:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ne...nt-t272279.html

I am not affiliated with these people in anyway whatsoever, I merely went in there to buy something and asked a question - could you do my fellow SAU members a discount, the reply was, yes sure, why not...

Can someone in authority please advise why this thread was deleted?

It is not a group buy, it is nothing to do with anything other than getting this forum's members more bang for their buck, why is that a bad thing and what 'rule' does this infringe upon.

I await your reply with baited breath, a bloody PM advising why it had been deleted would have been courtious

i am not trying to troll, i just would love to hear what I did wrong my trying to get everyone a discount on radar detectors, I made no representation as to the legalities, the functionality or anything other than specify models and the prices that were on offer from the business in question.

No they are not a forum sponsor, but who cares, they are offering the forum (which by definition is its members) a 50% on retail discount. What exactly is the problem I do not understand?

1. It was in General Discussion, should be in Group Buys, as it is a post made to sell items (hence classified section), and the discount is offered to SAU members (so group buy)

2, Radar detectors are only legal to sell, own and operate in Western Australia.

3. The means by which contraband items are sold are thereby also illegal in all states outside of WA.

Your thread hasn't been deleted, simply made invisible until the moderation team decides what the safe and legal means of dealing with it is. Feel free to speak to a WA moderator, and post the thread in the seperate WA only classified section if they give you the all clear.

ok thanks People.

As far as I am aware, it is not illegal to own or possess a radar detector, it is however illegal to possess one while in a motor vehicle in the States other than WA.

I dont think it is illegal to sell one then otherwise ebay would be screwed!!

Perhaps I can ask one of you fine upstanding citizens to move it to a WA section please?

Hello Simon

FYI, From a legal stand point you the re-seller of the item can be held responcible for the distribution of product interstate for use in an illegal manner...

Many Ebay sellers are ouside the reach of State laws, hence they can send away and have no problems...

The laws for distribution of illegal items are similar to the RSA laws, and in this case your the licensee of the products distribution...

Not sure of the fines involved with radar detectors but if anything like liquior than you could look at up to $50,000 per offence...

So just FYI, I personally would not distribute outside WA... Cause it could wreak your life for ever...

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
