The latest version of the National Code of practise has just been put on the website. Link provided.

Got some major changes, see the LA section engine size table.

V8s and forced induction dont figure in the scheme of things.

So...

(RWD) 1350x3 = 4ltr turbocharged/blown motor/6.5ltr N/A motor

(GTR) 1600x3 = 4.8ltr turbocharged/blown motor/8ltr N/A motor

(weights i know, are rough. Just proving a point)

Same as your last thread a while ago... A lot of hoohah, about nothing. Common sense ruling.

This is a skyline forum, not a blown big bore forum.

Plus the idea of putting a blown 5ltr-6ltr V8 into a 1200kg car will never be approved by a Victorian Engineer anyway.

So it's just ratifying common sense really as anyone doing such a thing isn't exactly building a road car.

You'd still get a small 4.2ltr V8 passes potentially that is both lighter and newer than say, a LS1 :)

Hi there,

your right, its the same as the last post in a way. i was just letting everyone know the version 2 NCOP had been posted.

Still if you know whats happening in WA you find that there are crazies here who have tried to supercharged V8s into 1400kg cars.

Of interest is that v 2 of the NCOP is now supposed to be accepted by all registration authorities and will be adopted into all States. V1 had bits that NSW wouldnt accept, now they state in there " this is the standard, but in NSW you have to do blah blah".

For late model cars stability control has been addressed, now they want evidence or testing to show ESC is not affected by suspesion mods, tyres etc.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
