for a Skyline, TECHNICALLY you have to take it to Dickson RTA, though I'll post up my results soon from taking mine elsewhere, lol...

no you dont... only if you have excessive mods. only reason i had to take my car over dickson was because of the coilovers, if i didnt have them then i could have gone anywhere to get it done

you only have to take a car to dickson if its modified. if it is bog standard any blue slip shop can do it. basically the only mods you can have if you take it anywhere other than dickson is an exhaust and a pod filter.

The RTA website listing approved inspection stations says that if it's modified or IMPORTED. Though this website is wrong for many things, so that could be incorrect.

But seeing as Skylines are imported, y'kno...oh well, I'll still post results when I take it to Lanyon next week.

Had mine done at Lanyon, passed . Very happy with how easy it was, PM if you want to know any details about my car that were overlooked. Failed first round on tint (5% lol) and second round didn't even worry about looking, took my word that I got it removed I think. Good guy, obviously appreciates courtesy and respect.

Would recommend.

can someone clarify this?

i got R34 N/a (just muffler modfication), should i go to Dickson or just any regular inspection shops?

if i can go to any shops, i'll take off my coilovers, pass the inspection, get the rego, and install the coilovers again.

anyway, what details the look after? currently my car sounds like WRX (i dont know the problem yet), and i need to pass it asap as i use it to work everyday. is it a big deal?

thanks.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
