Hey Guys,

got done by pettit and need to take my car for an EPA test. i've pretty much got all the standard parts i need, but i dont have an ECU. so if anyones willing to swop their standard for my power fc or can loan me one which i'll happily pay for, for a few days, plz let me know.

i drive a r34 gtt manual. i live around the glenny area. plz guys i'm pretty desperate and running out of time.

btw whats EPA policy on giving extensions???

thanks

Id let you borrow my stock ecu but its for a r33, and im in glenny to, well in regards to extension if you ring them I think they can give like a couple of weeks extension on the phone and if you want more you have to write to them

mate do as i did...

Emailed them

at [email protected]

and they gave me a open ended extension untill i get my car ready, i just cant drive it on the roads, all u need to include in the email is ur EPA reference number.

but bleh whos kidding if the cops pull me over im just going to say im coming back from repairing something for epa and they cant do shit to me..

as for the ECU ive got a r33 gst-t manual in wheelers hill.. probs not of any help but the top bit will be.

That's what I told them (and it was true too), I was going to the workshop when I was pulled over.

The cops asked for the name of the workshop so they could ring them and confirm otherwise would still give me the fine for driving it. :P

Rubbish, they can't do that.

They were just saying that to try and scare you a bit, in actuality, if you say you are going to a workshop, then that will

legally suffice, easy loophole for you to drive you car within business hours.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
