Hey guys and girls,

I did a search and noticed a few of the other state sections have a stickied thread for this, but couldnt find anything in WA.

Basically people just post up things that they need to borrow or things they can lend to other people in order to pass the pits. Not saying this should be an alternative to getting permits for mods, just for cases like mine, where the previous owner of the car removed some factory items which i now need to pass the pits.

So if people find this thread useful then maybe a mod could sticky it.

Cheers,

Martin

So ill get things started, would anyone be able to lend me their factory rubber pedals? When i bought the car, the owner had removed the accelerator rubber and replaced it with one of those crappy, cheap Malz brand pedals. I have since installed Isotta racing pedals, but inspector at the pits told me i need to restore them to the factory rubber ones.

Can anyone help me out?

Cheers,

Martin

lol sticky this thread..

pedals are legal but they cant be all metal they have to have decent amount of rubber grip on them.

See that's what i thought and what i was told when i bought these ones, they have plenty of rubber on them, but the inspector said i need to restore them to factory

cant help with pedals

Mods - with the amount of people being stickered these days for rediculous things such as "your tyres/rims are too big, your pedals are illegal", it would be a great idea to sticky this thread. It will become damn helpful, not only for those who need to get their car over the pits, but also for people who may need to test a part, i.e. coil packs may be playing up so someone might want to borrow some to test.

Sticky sticky sticky

+1 for stickey.

Also have stock parts if anyone needs to borrow them.

1x stock bov

1x stock air box moded to fit around front mount cooler piping

1x stock intercooler

all stock cooler piping

1x stock airbag steering wheel

1x exhaust silencer that slids inside your exhaust tip

:blush:

for the guys in the south, i got

set of stock rims with reasonable tyres

set of stock springs

set of stock injectors

non m spec stock front bar (slightly modded)

stock exhaust but needs a little bit of repair (small welding job)

stock air box

stock ecu

Hey guys this sounds like a good thing to do, though im curious.. what happens if say you get caught, have to go over pits with everything all back to stock standard, then put all the "illegal" stuff back on, then get yellow stickered again. do they keep a record? do you get in trouble? or just do it over n over again?

Cheers.

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
