nah not to worried, hopefully can book in to get it cleared by wednesday

when vicroads check they only check what is listed yes?

that's rite dox.

they'll only check what's on your list.

And half the time you can get around that.

PM dj_lethal... :P his endeavours at Broadie Vic Roads cracked me up.

He basically walked in with the car the same was it was on the defect and span a bit of the good ole :bs!: and passed.

he only had to change the BOV, the rest just stayed as it was.

I'll let him fill ya in with more details that i cant say in public

And that just proves the whole system is WHACKED!

if you can get a defect, and basically no fix anything, then rock into a Vic Roads and get passed A-OK ... then yeah, i dont need to even say it.

Coppers vs Vic Roads = 2 different sets of rules.

did me on tyres.

I was driving to work in the morning on the eastern n one off the highway patrols pulled me over. I guess they couldn't bust anyone driving on Transit lane.

and getting a RWC is a pain. my windscreen cracked last week just after I changed the tyres. so got that replaced. tried to get it RW'ed today and I realise I need to get a side indicator cover as mine fell off.

No. didn't get it coming back from rye mate. I was smashed.

good ol' VIC - you crazy hoon dox!

guess you're gonna see an aweful lot of p-platers catching the bus soon with the 5 point rule. Would'a been me 'cause i think i got up to 10points by about my 2nd year. What a load of pooptrap.

To get the defect cleared do you need to book it into Vicroads??

Coz I was planning to rock up and show them the RWC and get it inspected.

Pain in the ass getting a damn RWC!!!

Read this thread mate.

you dont NEED to get a RWC to take to Vic Roads.

Just make the neccasary changes (if any :P) and then drive to Vic Roads.

There is no need to fork out for a RWC unless you get a canary from memory.

Or maybe not even for a canary if you fix up the bits.

i have said it a million times and i will say it again, u dont need to take your car to vicroads to get the canary cleared. They dont care or have time because they know themselves the vic cops r full of shit when it comes to these matters and all they care about is $$ and getting their quota up

vic roads will only come out and check if being too low is on the defect...  

and the stickers allways fall off if you leave them in the sun...

good luck

no they dont check if they cant be bothered or they are too busy...

my last defect had too low (even though standard height and wheels) but they didnt come out to check...

gonna get tyres replaced tomorrow, bloke from tyrepower is a good guy

then to sticky tape the p plate to the outside for the next 11 months, get spacers for the rear numberplate (just use the ones we use on shower screens and windows)

get a "H" pattern sticker made to stick on my knob :P

secure the cat and make break lights sufficiently bright

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
