Looking good, how long until compliance is done?

Should be 3 weeks if everything goes well. The only possible problem (as most of the work to the car has already been completed just the reams and reams of RAWS paper work to do) is Dotars is doing a random inspection sometime soon and if they find anything wrong at all it could be considerably longer. They have already told him there will be an inspection very soon and have picked the car they are going to inspect. Not mine.

Congrats JL, the wait must be infuriating.

 

Bags shotgun for a ride on the first cruise you bring it to.

 

Have you given it a name and sex yet???

The wait wasn't bothering me much before, but now that I have seen it I am ready to go! Sorry no names yet, not that I have ever named a car as of yet.

Just to clarify, all mods have to be removed, destroyed and replaced with factory stuff. Bye, bye exhaust, steering wheel and gearknob. Not too upset at losing the gearknob, it was a razo knob but it still looked ordinary. But losing the rest sux, especially the exhaust.

No, I know some compliance guys have been doing that, but if they get caught its the end of their license. The destruction has to be completely documented, even mag wheel are supposed to get squashed. Very strict, almost impossible to get around, especially since they do random checks and stuff. Doesn't really bother me too much, I didn't have much to lose, only a cat back exhaust and a steering wheel, I was getting rid of the steering wheel anyway. Oh, and it gets destroyed and then replaced at the customers expense. More mods the dearer compliance gets.

It was $120 to get the wheels polished, the best money I have spent so far! I spent 4hrs hand polishing them before I gave up and got nowhere near the finish on them that they have now. Well worth it.

Yeah that is something I have never been able to understand, that they have the right to destroy parts that you own, because you may or may not put the parts back on.

That is most unfair

stoopid in't it.

I can't see the possible reason other than making it difficult, as anybody can go fit or import those parts later anyhow they went and bought from somewhere else. Its such a waste, send them to Africa or something for godsakes ! so some little african kid can stick a HKS exhaust on his pushbike :D

  • 4 weeks later...

Pickup time 1:00pm Friday 26th March.

I'm excited!!!!!!!!! :boobies2: :boobies2: :boobies2:

Edit: Date correction, thanks twoquik, can't sit still, going to get bank cheque for compliance now!

ETA 20 minutes :)

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
