VERY HARD! only Just Car might consider that. You would have to let them know the colour.....

That car probably looks normal to you while hiiiiigh. Sure it has awards but I think it's hideous

I'd check the catch can for legity (must drain back into the sump), check it has a cat, make sure it isn't too loud, swap the suspention and wheels, and it should get over.

Having said that, absolutely horrific colour! I'd much rather your RB30 R34. And I thought you were selling it to buy a house?

they dont need to drain back to the sump, just cant vent to atmosphere.

i cant see much why it wouldn't pass, there are no real big issues with it.

i highly doubt the pits will pick up the twins, especially being low mount.

this car is highly unlikely to ever get registered and if it were to you'd need to know someone that can provide updated permits for the mods and even then, unless you know someone thats on the pits i wouldn't waste my time. I've imported a skyline from Melbourne that had 250rwkw and that was hard enough as it was, once you start upgrading the turbo's they don't want you on the road. Don't recommend it mate, it will take a lot of time, a lot of money and in the end might get you no-where!

nah i dont think i want to bother with it because i really think getting it over the pits would be a nightmare! More trouble then its worth. Thanks for the heads up guys. But i found another 99 GTR R34 V-spec midnight purple III with 37k km, stock, only 1 owner from jap, orginal log books mint condition. Dealer is asking $62K. What you guys think? Is it worth it? I could get another cheaper but i really like this colour. He said his basically getting his money back because his got another 3 GTR's and he just wants to turn over the stock.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
