Hey all,

Looking into getting an engineering certificate for a line. Basically just after some info from people who've done it, tips, pricing etc. Feel free to PM me if you'd like.

Who have you used ? Were they good/easy to deal with etc.

The setup is

r33 gtst

gt2871r on stock manifold

fmic (not return flow unfortunately)

Pod

injectors/fuel reg/fuel pump in tank

coilpacks

apexi pfc, hand controller, apexi boost controller kit

turbo back exhaust, ceramic high flow cat

r34 wheels with 235/45/17

dba4000 slotted f/r rotors, braided lines

Things done/to be done before going for cert.

Pod boxed

hole cut for the fmic will be reinforced (looked this up in the self certifiable mods in the rta pdf)

Weld on an exhaust silencer to bring noise levels down

Remove pfc hand controller

shave "nissan" logo off front calipers so the 34gtt wheels can go on without a 3mm spacer

Thanks in advance

Will doing the above likely let the car pass the cert ? Or will the injectors/turbo etc cause it to fail?

Gonna ring a few places but doubt i'll get free advice.

Err.. forgot about the sussy.

Bilstein shockies, hks springs. I gotta check if lowest point on car is above 100mm but pretty certain it is.

Just rang one place, they want a $220 inspection fee which then provide a solid quote to go on as they've had too many people not fully disclose and the costs blow out.

i brought a skyline from qld to nsw and had to get a blueslip. car has pretty much the same as urs and i had to put the stockies on (had 19" deep dish), pod box, and weld a hole in da exhaust. i just did it all one weekend and got it ticked off the next week...

Any chance you can list what you have done to your car?

Piggaz

pretty much the car has the following on the engineers report

exhaustfrom the turbos back with a noise test done

130mm intercooler

Coilovers and lowered

19 x10.5 wheels

gauges in the air piller

oil catch can

Airfilters with a airbox

Cheers

    • Yeap, not as doorty as ITB's, but alot more doorty than before, induction sound great when I'm up it 🤗
    • Any difference in induction noise?
    • If I got a dollar for every flipped commuter missile I've driven past I'd have two dollars   Some people get into wild adventures on the road and I doubt it's gender or ethnicity specific. I'm just glad I don't usually drive during peak times.
    • Just got the car back and gave it a good run back home Power wise, whilst it only made a extra 5 killerwasps up top at 7200 rpm, it made more power everywhere from 2500 rpm and kept pulling much harder all the way, to the point of me relearning when to shift so I don't hit the 7200 limiter, with the old intake it seemed to take alot more time to rev out, and, throttle response is also much improved  As I didn't want to remove the bumper every time I serviced the air filter (basically every aftermarket and fabricated CAI has the filter behind the bumper) it currently has a hektic exposed pod in the engine bay sucking in hot air, this will be rectified shortly after some some of my CAD (cardboard assisted design) for a alloy heat shield feed by the OEM intake tube behind the bumper, this will cop some wrinkle black paint, as well as the intake pipe for that totally OEM look... The only fly in the ointment was that the OEM "strut" brace doesn't fit over the rear runner of the new intake with the 2.5 engine is in the engine bay, as the 2.5 raises the engine up by 20mm, it's not a war stopper, and I didn't notice any difference without it in some twisties, but....... MX5 Mania is bringing in some GWR "fancy pants" braces that apparently do fit, if it bolts up I'll grab it, it is also stiffer than the OEM one, which is a bonus All in all I'm happy with the outcome      Fancy pants "strut" brace that gives the required clearance      This is where the clearance issue was, the GWR extends out past this
