what determines the difference between major/minor?

or is it how they feel

Might be how they feel?

I got a major defect for being too low. The lowest point of my exhaust was 5mm off the required 100mm.

Had to get a RWC and spend $500 fixing shit up that other workshops reckon didn't need fixing....

Forever my car now will be a 4wd and I will not lower it...

From memory there is a box on the sheet where they mark it as minor or major and I think most officers will do major if there is a few items that need attention. When I got done for HID it was minor...assuming a sensible officer, major would only apply to things like a serious safety hazard or numerous engine modifications.

Cheers guys!

Yeah when my friend was taking out all the shit to get to the sparkies he kept on saying luckily I have this tool, otherwise if you did this yourself at home it would be a bitch for you to get 'x' screw out.

I get jelly when I hear my friend changes his spark plugs in his s15 in 5 mins.

You could change the spark plugs in my Calibra in 5 mins. East-west engine, with spark leads that just pull straight off the plugs...and there they are. Unscrew old, screw in the new.

I believe it is the third note.

Driven past any Highway patrol cars yet Aaron? :D

yep.

yesterday night.. didnt even look

3 days prior.. who actually put the window down and said "nice car.. good to see you not drive like a dickhead"

theres nothing to defect in my car now since i put a return flow intercooler in.. it wouldve been the only thing..

110mm high at the lowest point.

none of this HID stuff.

wheels sit flush with no poke..

i dont think engine shock braces are defective. or colour lol.

maybe exhaust is a little loud but that doesnt worry me. im changing that soon lol

that said.. i dont exactly expose myself. drive to work and back. sometimes, or to the missus house.. otherwise she drives her mobile.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
