sorry if this has already been covered somewhere else but i was curious to see if anyone knows if mod plates are australia wide or just specific to each state.

on my skyline i have mod plates for the engine conversion, gearbox, diff and drive train however i bought it with these in QLD and am worried that when i get around to taking it to the pits they are just gunna tell me that i need to get them all re done

any thoughts??

cheers

I myself cant answer those questions, I think you need to get them reissued. But my 4 door is registered with the RB25 in it no engineers certificate was needed. They asked if I had an engineers certificate but didn't tell me I needed one.

Cars has been defected once for the exhaust and had no issues re the RB25. You might not have the same luck as me as yours is a NEO. But just thought I'd let you know.

Pretty sure mod plates are specific to the state of Queensland. I haven't heard of NSW, ACT or VIC having mod plates.

Did you ever meet Rob's mate Ben? He works at Vehicle Safety Standards and from what I recall him saying, it is up to each state or territory to manage their own legislation about vehicle modification. So you'll probably need to ask someone at RegoACT.

However since the R32 did come with a RB25 variet, it may be one of the modifications that do not require certification.

Mod plate= modified vehicle = Dickson only inspection.

Qld mod plates are excepted in act, had afew Nissan elgrandes with mod plated as campers I forwarded to Dickson and they got rego etc.

Dicksons funny newish rule BOV or FMIC, can't have both.

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
