I dont blame you, i recently had a problem with my tune which i couldn't afford to fix, so she was pulsing. to which a cop pulled me over and got me with a yellow sticker, for things that have never been targeted before. I was very upset explained i couldn't fix these problems, she continued to tell me "well your just gonna have to sell it then", i looked at her with a dumb look "are you serious with a sticker like that on it i couldnt possibly sell it", she smiled and said "not my problem".

I'm an honest hard working citizen, yet because i drive a GTR around as a daily, its suddenly a crime.

That isn't even the best part, a foolish man in his WRX drove past hi-revving in low gears up to the lights with 50m of us, then proceeded to takeoff going sideways. My brother who was in the passenger seat told me he knew the guy and he has been sticker-ed 3 times. when i told the officer that she replied with "if i hadn't pulled you over i would be dealing with him"

If i could drive my xr6 around the streets i wouldnt be so pissed about these bs brand new commonwhores or falcoons doing burnouts in a packed carpark and getting away with it. although i just dont have the money to fix it, and save my poor GTR for the track. Yet they have the money to waste their "stockies" on the rear on a daily.

The thing that amuses me the most, is how much ALL import owners complain about this shit.

You have seen the amount of people who also own imports who are 'bogans' or just complete dickheads and do the exact same shit that other 'bogans' and complete dickheads do in their v8s. People from both sides of this "fued" I suppose you'd call it, challenge each other or try to provoke stupid acts from each other.

We also all KNOW that owning an import usually brings unwanted attention from the police.

If you can't handle your shit, keep your car to a track or dont own one.

In regards to the above poster, why were you driving it around with known problems?

Sorry slash but you get constant or even mild harrasment by the police or bias attention and see if you may hve the same mind set after or while your going through it plus my main reason I post is because I don't think it's fair when your godly given rights and free choice come under scrutineer in this country and you get targeted because of your free choice of vehicle you choose to drive,it is unjustifiable , a form of harrasment and un australian.There is other problems that hve just labeled the whole import scene as goons hoons and gollywogs etc but why put the whole import scene driver in the whole same bucket?..there can be shit thrown around all day but alot of people know that import driver will get pinged 9 times outa 10 over any other car and there will be a day when imports will be a thing of the past an not seen on roads unsure.gif

It comes from both sides. Having come from driving a VYSII Clubsport, I had to deal with dickheads in V8's and Imports trying to race and on the funnier occasions, V6 with the most mang exhaust and stupid wheels lol, Now I drive a Mazda Bravo TD as my daily, no one tries to race me, I don't even get a second glance in it...

      S1 headlights?

      By Duncan 路 Posted

      It might be worth having a good look at the chassis behind the bumper then; most people prefer the series 2 look so it might have been changed to cheaper parts as part of an earlier repair

      The car itself a series 2. I was just curious about the headlights and just wanted to confirm that they were series 1. Good to know the rest of the front end is series 1. It鈥檒l be easier for me to find parts on the aftermarket side of things lol

      R34 engine swap Rb25de neo to s1 Rb25det

      If you've wired up the coils & injectors properly, & have the neo CAS loom for the trigger, it should all work. The VCT works the same way so just different plugs between s1 & neo. Assuming DBW if no IAC. Don't bother with the stock boost solenoid with g4x.

      THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.
