Hey everyone, I know this has been done to death and will probably attract a bunch of awesome replies that are in no way relevant to my question, but I'm gunna ask it anyway.

A good mate of mine has just put down a deposit on a Type M 32 GTS-T and I'll be driving it home for him tomorrow. As a lot of you may know, the laws have changed in QLD recently. They now state that a p plater may drive a turbo vehicle if falls under 125kw/ton.

What he wants to know is, what does he have to supply to qld transport to get the exemption? There was a bloke selling his 180sx on here who had an exemption due to the new laws, so if you're reading this and wouldn't mind chiming in, we'd be appreciative.

There are no legitimate stats from Nissan that I can find indicating power to weight, so I'm assuming it may be a matter of weighing the car and giving that info, plus legitimate info on the 20det's power output to qld transport.

If someone with experience regarding this could lend a hand that would be sweet.

If not, we'll just remove the turbo or he can drive it without an exemption, because insurance and the law aren't really important (just kidding).

Cheers

asians shouldnt have more than 50kw/tonne.

Excuse me? I believe this very forum itself is built around on asian cars and in which 99% of all cars in this forum has been driven by an asian once ;)

Soon one day, it will become inevitable that on either side of this emoticon, it will be an asian :3some:

Aparently you can go into QLD transport and get one with no legitamate "reason". Just a matter of filling out forms and proving your car falls under the legal limits. I reckon if you google "Type M 32 GTS-T power to weight ratio" something will come up.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
