the rb20 will probably drive all around australia twice on the redline the entire way without blowing lol. I think most motorbikes have a longer stroke haha

still, hopefully they are dumb enough to keep driving it and they catch them.

Import_zone on hardtuned wrote in their spotted thread that he had seen a purple 32 yesterday in the hills and has spoken to police. He/she wanted someone on sau to pass on the message. Hope the car is recovered mate!

What id like to know is how come we all seem to not be able to pull out the driveway without being pulled over for a defect, yet these criminals can drive around numerous times using the stolen cars to steal more imports...and not get pulled over?

Am I missing something other than a balaclava, set of screwdrivers and some tool kit to keep in the car that guarantees to not get noticed by the local on duty?

Cant answer that, but I can say from my own experience that I've been pulled over twice in the 4 years of owning my GTR and using it as a daily driver.

On both occasions it was a bretho and licence check, and I was sent on my way without incident.

I suppose upkeep, keeping it stock and not driving like a tool are the 3 things that have helped me, however I do worry like everyone else, especially since my exhaust is loudish...

-D

I can agree with you there dohmar. My silver paint helps but when your car and driving style doesn't scream 'street racer' you don't have much to worry about. I've never been pulled over in a year of GTR ownership and daily driving.

Ive used my car as a daily in the past, and the last time I was defected the cop was pulling out of a side street as I was coming past in the front of a pack of traffic. The cop basically raced, weaved and then stuck his lights on behind others to get to me specifically. Once he looked over my car, even commenting on how clean and standard it was, chose to defect me for less than 5mm too low. I wasnt driving like a moron, nor do I have any large bling on my car. Its as stock as a rock for all intensive purposes, and well kept.

Those are the police I refer to as **** who dont do their jobs.

Cops just rand and said the car has been found with no plates and shit and they have poured power steering fuid or something all through the inside so will have to see how bad it is when I get it back tomorrow!!

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
