The NSW RTA is proposing changes to the current registration system for modified vehicles. These changes will mean that the majority of modified vehicles will be classified as individually constructed and will have to comply with the ADR's current on the day that it goes for registration. Please follow the link below and sign the petition to assist us in taking the fight to the NSW Transport Minister.

Lifted this off another forum. Would be worth spreading around to whatever forums you guys go to. Under this law it would make it near impossible to modify and older vehicle.

A car should comply with ADRs if it wants to be registered, but this would require a car from the 80s to comply with 2010 ADRs to be considered 'roadworthy'.

signing this petition will only give them numbers of how many people have modified cars, it wont actually change their minds. i was listening to the process of how a bill is passed. at no point do they say "are there any petitions against this legislation?". they read the bill and its positive effects, what it intends to do and as soon as they say "emissions this, emissions that", it will get passed. dont forget these are people who get driven around and/or have a car that is no more than 1 year old.

what you SHOULD do is get an engineers certificate for a modified car that fits in this category before this is passed, because if this bit of legislation comes in, the next step is to make it harder for older cars to obtain one.

Signing does help... especially when it comes close to state elections and what not and number matter.

The gaming R18+ classification is finally going to be actioned after parliament acknowledged a petition.

So, where are the proposed rule changes listed? There's no link to where the details are in the petition, and I'd personally like to see them to see what we're up against.

      I'd be worried about having to parallel park a boat like that. Magnificent car though.

The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking

      Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
