S13's really get picked on for some reason.

I had my r32 for a year with illegal tint etc and never got pulled over once in the 30'000kms i put on. Maybe they arent used to the site of a 32.

Like Zanda said...dont pull your tint off yourself as you will lose your de-misters on your rear window, even if you use a heatgun. Todd uses steam to get it off.

If you have troubles with the more local pits there is Marinos in Kwinana who are very easy to pass with. I got my old v8 over with a silencer gasket wedged in the exhaust.

Good luck! .

ive borrowed a pod for the moment, but the thing is its only bolted on wid two screws, as it ont fit in propely, (like line up with holes there)

will that pass the pits or do you need three/four?

and ive bolted it down, so it will stay there, just need to know about the screws, etc...

yer nah its a perfect fit, just well the holes it has to bolt it on to the AFM (i think its called) arnt suited to it, as its a r33 apexi filter (well its made to fit r33's) and im just using it to pass the pits

but it dosent let nythin in, just i need to know if it dosent rattle or nythin it sticks hard, does it need four screws or can i get away with two?

Oh man, i gotta feel for ya. That sucks when your stoked about getting a new car only to have some arrogant jellyback ruin it for ya.

Not all of us have had issues with our imports, ive had mine 18 months and its easily defectable (lowered, big wheels, bov etc). I havent so much as been looked at by a copper, touch wood.

Perhaps he saw the P Plates and figured you were easy prey.

Hope the transport guys help you out. Some of em are really good to deal with... others... not so good.

I would warn against taking any car to warwick.

Took my 2000 Magna over wednesday - failed me for a split brake pedal rubber, and some glass between the dash and windscreen (front passenger window got broken to steal radar detector and glass went everywhere).

All i can say is make sure you car has plenty of rego before you go on holidays for a few months.

Got it passed this morning - another inspector said "gee we really sorted you out". So i suppose it really does depend who you get. Shouldnt be that way though.

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
