about 2 blocks before flinders street.

nah not cleared yet

second epa, first was a headf*** but this one been noise is much easier.

im just enjoying the next few weeks of not having to drive quietly

i just had my exhaust done today, from a kakimoto to a tanabe :D

much quieter than the kakimoto, which was rated 93db, so yeah waiting for the appointment this friday to have it cleared :)

nah bro dont drink but no sweat man its sitting in my gfs garage since i bought the car a year ago.. just kept it figured ill need it one day when my number comes up to get done haha as long as you dont mind pickin it up from her place in hoppers cos i took it there with my mates car/trailor i dont have anyway to get it to point cook but can always meet at my place and follow me there.. just pm when you wana grab it most likely a friday for me its the only day i dont work..

hey man u can borrow mine if u want? its in hoppers crossing i seen your car around point cook if your name is your number plate black 33?

I may call on this if the testers tell me to change my exhaust too. Given you don't drink, gram of hash? lol.

Just got an EPA notice today as well.... perhaps we could do a group clearing EPA notice ! :(

Group clearing, more like class action. How'd they nail you? Did they test your exhaust or even pull you over? Or were you one of those "observed" people.

Last Sunday was cruising down M1 with a mate's Chaser jzx100.. On Monday he calls me and tells me he got an EPA exhaust notice in regards to the previous night's drive..

Been checking my mail everyday and have not got a notice, strange because I was on his tail the entire time..

Fingers crossed, what are the chances? It's been 5 working days, slow mail? Can't be that slow right.. Dodge bullet?

Tell him to check the offence date, no way it could be put in there system on Sunday And he gets it on Monday, would have to be from a day last week at the earliest.

lol as if birds.. no catch just cos i hang shit on most ppl dont mean i dont help out fellow 'enthusiasts'

yeh its usually 3 week lag for epa i've found.. maybe these blitz ones are quicker but not 24hours

Well I got pulled over by the cop at the start of a month. Received EPA at the start of the next month...so...hopefully you dodged it but don't count your chickens for some time yet.

Haha I'm joking...it's very much appreciated should I require it.

happpy i ddnt drive the skyline in those 2 weeks :P got pulled over last night "random check", selling the car so hopefully the dont write me up a epa..

If you do get an EPA you'll need to clear it before you can sign the vehicle transfer papers...and if it's already been sold when the EPA notice rocks up then you gotta write to them and tell them you no longer own the car.

The young female blondie officer was giving me and evil look at the king st and flinder intersection just after the bridge through crown casino. Saw her noted something down while my car was idling at the red light =\ didn't realise it was the pipe down thing. Then I drove off without knowing that I'm going to have to spend $38

    • Yeah nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.
    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
