i run the GReddy type s bov to atmo and its wound in to hard setting. It flutters up to three times if im just starting to build boost and back off (driving gently etc). Dont much know why how or what, but i do like the sound. For me the light flutter is ok, but the louder pchsshht is where its at when im up her. For that reason i stayed away from the HKS SSQ on the skyline.

Ive seen and heard a few vl's dosing and im of mixed opinion about it. one thing for sure it doesnt say hard tuned to me, it says hello ladies look at me im full sick....

All that said i chose the SSQ on my sigma to keep the noise down on gear changes. It's running short and large intake pipes so it's quite subtle but still doing the job. See how it sounds when i get to 18psi and if it's too invasive i'll go plumb back. With that car its all about less attention is better where skyline it's pose on.

R32 gtr 362RWKW no bov apexi filters and i can dose as good and loud as any VL and it sounds tough as like if it where in bathurst again, two turbos belching out sweet noise now thats where its at. And for those that say no BOV does damage thats bullshit 20k klms with -9 garretts and still perfect cond turbos.

cheers.

i love dose. i did an rb30 conversion and bought a vipec ecu so i could get rid of my AFM so i could get some better dose. ~$8000 later and i couldnt be happier. oh yeah, the car goes alright too.

    • The values for HID colour are also defined ~ see https://www.legislation.gov.au/F2006L02732/latest/text  ~ goto section 3.9 onwards ....
    • So, if the headlights' cutoff behaviour (angles, heights, etc) are not as per 6.2.6.1.1 without automatic levelling, then you have to have to have automatic** levelling. Also, if the headlight does not have the required markings, then neither automatic nor manual adjusters are going to be acceptable. That's because the base headlight itself does not meet the minimum requirement (which is the marking). ** with the option of manual levelling, if the headlight otherwise meets the same requirements as for the automatic case AND can be set to the "base" alignment at the headlight itself. So that's an additional requirement for the manual case. So, provided that the marking is on the headlight and there is a local manual adjustment back to "base" on the headlight, then yes, you could argue that they are code compliant. But if you are missing any single one of these things, then they are not. And unlike certain other standards that I work with, there does not seem to be scope to prepare a "fitness for purpose" report. Well, I guess there actually is. You might engage an automotive engineer to write a report stating that the lights meet the performance requirements of the standard even if they are missing, for example, the markings.  
    • Vertical orientation   6.2.6.1.1. The initial downward inclination of the cut off of the dipped-beam to be set in the unladen vehicle state with one person in the driver's seat shall be specified within an accuracy of 0.1 per cent by the manufacturer and indicated in a clearly legible and indelible manner on each vehicle close to either headlamp or the manufacturer's plate by the symbol shown in Annex 7.   The value of this indicated downward inclination shall be defined in accordance with paragraph 6.2.6.1.2.   6.2.6.1.2. Depending on the mounting height in metres (h) of the lower edge of the apparent surface in the direction of the reference axis of the dipped beam headlamp, measured on the unladen vehicles, the vertical inclination of the cut off of the dipped- beam shall, under all the static conditions of Annex 5, remain between the following limits and the initial aiming shall have the following values:   h < 0.8   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   0.8 < h < 1.0   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   Or, at the discretion of the manufacturer,   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The application for the vehicle type approval shall, in this case, contain information as to which of the two alternatives is to be used.   h > 1.0   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The above limits and the initial aiming values are summarized in the diagram below.   For category N3G (off-road) vehicles where the headlamps exceed a height of 1,200 mm, the limits for the vertical inclination of the cut-off shall be between: -1.5 per cent and -3.5 per cent.   The initial aim shall be set between: -2 per cent and -2.5 per cent.
