Hey All,

Just moved down here a few weeks ago from Sydney. Living out west.

Not too sure what the rules are down here for registration. Do you need a RWC every year when it's time to re-register your car?

I've also seen there are some threads for wreckers etc, does anyone have a preferred wrecker they go to?

My R33 is a bit damaged and I need to do a bit of work to it here and there.

I'm in Truganina - which is next to Hoppers Crossing.

Hmmm luckily don't have too many mods yet, guess I'll just need to make smart mods and try and hide them as best as possible.

Yeah I've heard that if I drive into the city, there's a pretty good chance of being pulled over.

Hah!

Westside eah...

You will be welcomed by the the Nissan Sideways (Nissan Silvia) members and there are quite a few SAU members out there as well.

1 intake mod only in VIC, so if you got an air pod, not allowed to have a front mount intercooler.

If you got a front mount intercooler, no air pod allowed.

It you got both, box up your air pod.

exhaust, just keep it quiet and you will be fine.

height, keep it above legal limit (100mm I think) you will be fine.

Drive responsibly and stick to the law and you will be fine.

Welcome to Melbourne!

Welcome to Melb.

You are now apart of the fine state where good old joe citizen is reamed for our state governments revenue raising strategies. Welcome to the fold of seeing your tax dollars, fines and tickets go towards Jack crap.

Hi EXTR33ME,

I'm in the Hoppers Crossing area too. Haven't seen many Skylines around our area thus far. Is your GTST a white one? Do you park at the station? I think I've seen your car around.

Edited by theponyremark
whats wrong with us westsliders ?? :) we have heapps more fun =\

anyway im near by to you dude if you want some help with wreckers an that pm me

Hi alr33x,

Nice to see another Westsider around :P

Can you please advise me of any nearby wreckers for 33/34 Skylines?

holfords in spotswood are good but he is getting out of parts so depends what you need, ekw down from dr drift is very good too and deer park wreckers have bits and pieces, what exactly do you need?

the for sale forum on here is pretty good too

theres heaps of imports around here mate..you'll see em!

I'm after an after market handbrake cover. I bought a few from Autobarn and Super Cheap Auto, but they are all shit and don't fit well. They use super small grub screws that don't tighten at all, in fact, they fall right through :(:( I removed the old worn leather, it looked like something just died...

Not quite sure where to go to get a decent handbrake cover...

    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
