Rims too wide (just guessing) - defectable

Atmo-venting BOV - defectable

Carbon fiber bonnet - defectable

Pods - will pass if properly sheilded

Boost Controller - defectable

PowerFC - defectable. Even if you pass emissions on an engineers certificate as the tune is easily changed.

An Engineers Certificate won't make any of your defectable mods less defectable.

all stereotypes are true - they are all based on something - if they wernt based on something there woudlnt be a stereotype

it is a stereotype skylines will have mods

this is because MOST SKYLINES HAVE MODS

therefore the stereotype is correct

its not cops harrasing, yes its rude, yes its annoying, yes we want them to go away

a cop sees a skyline as an easy target cause 9 times out of 10 THEY ARE

Like others have already said, get rid of the BOV, put shield on PODs, remove the hand controller for the PFC & put a metal type bonnet on.

Or you can try & move to WA :(

Cops here (atleast around my area & the areas I usually visit) don't seem to pull over imports that much. The 2.5 years I had my car (2 years where on P) I have only being pulled over 3 times & they were all during the Easter Break (so lesson learnt is don't drive around in a skyline during the Easter Break... LOL). But None of them had bothered to check under the bonnet & they were mainly interested in seeing if I had my rego sticker on...

The other times I have driven alongside cop cars & I don't think they even noticed me.

HAhahah......yeah, I will have no choice but to do what you said and many others have said...just don't have the time ffs!

Thanks all.

get rid of the bov.... i guarantee that is what is getting you pinned...

atmo bov's are pure wank.... gtr bov... if you seriously cant live without that atmo bov sound then you should be killed anyway... :(

You keep shooting yourself in the foot and you then you start up threads about how not to shoot your self... :(

Unless you don't pay any attention to what Ash has said about the aftermarket BOV's then keep shooting yourself. :D

You pods already make a "Flutter" noise.

From memory you are allowed 1 intake mod, since you have a GTR now, you pods should be fine as they came with a FMIC stock.

As for the Power FC, from memory I think you can unplug the hand controller and leave it at home.

Or shove it down your pants before the cop sees it :(

Carbon Fibre bonnet will attract attention, either paint the bonnet the same colour or put the stock one back on.

GTR bonnets are aluminium so they are quite light.

Ha ha ha ha...classic...an absolute classic! hahahah...I especially like the SHOVE IT DOWN YOUR PANTS line. However, I see your point mate, that's why I'm going to keep my GTR stock as a freaken rock. I need to clear the defect on the GTS-T so that I can sell the fuucka....thanks mate...

I guess you're right mate...it's the BOV and the POD that's gotten me into shit all these years...I've just ordered a heatshield thing for the pod to hide the fucckka away and will consider a plumb back BOV - do you think all plumb backs will be fine?

Thanks.

plumb back bovs are better than atmo ones in a maf environment...

if your car is tuned for the atmo one then you might want a uick fix up tune

Yeah mate...it was tuned for atmo BOV...I have no choice but to get it fixed as per their requirements.

Fellas, I'm going to give in and give them what they want...and I'm going to keep it this way too as I've had enough...

So I was wondering if someone can please sell me, lend me or rent me the following to I can clear my defect...

- stock plumb back BOV for a GTS-T.

- stock panel-filter air box complete with snorkel etc.

I need one urgently as I got 10 days left to clear the defect before I cannot drive it around no more to get the defect notice cleared.

Thanks. Please help a Skyliner brother in need. :(

Hi there...very meaningful response...thanks....

There was no sarcasm in my post. I have an engineered car so I have some kind've idea that you trying to engineer your car with defectable mods is useless exercise. You can and always will be defected on items that don't comply with or without an engineers certificate.

My goal is 300Kw at all 4 with limited mods to my GTR, and so far with the Mods that have been done no policeman has pulled me over. Plus my GTR is a daily driver at the moment too.

I have spoken to Ray at RE and outlined what I want from the car. I want performance, relibality and for it to look stock. He has even designed an exhaust setup for me that will look stock and be almost as quiet as the stock exhaust front pipes back. So it is possible for it to be done.

Give me 4 months and my GTR will there. :banana:

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
