As the others have already said, stay away from Princes Highway Fri nights. Even if you are obeying the road laws it's hard to separate the few doing that from the 100's going up and down drag racing all night. Good chance you would be pulled over and either fined, NOU or EPA but everyone here already knows that.

Not always true, I drove a VL Turbo there on Ps for a while and didn't ever get pulled over, but then again it wasn't an import with a spoiler was it :)

Dunno about luck, I never did anything stupid, quiet exhaust and stock exterior so I didn't attract any attention. Doesn't bother me anyway I don't have the car anymore and I had an exemption regardless.

In the last 2 hours there has already been more than 10 separate jobs for Princes Highway in relation to vehicles drag racing, burn outs etc. Little wonder we (police) are always there. Couple of months ago there were 10 cars impounded along there in space of few hours.

lol @ exemption regardless.

Not even Lewis Hamilton gets an exemption from stupidity.

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance

      Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
