Need Licensed Smash Repairer Consultation In Fairfield West!


Recommended Posts

Anyone who works for or owns a licensed smash repairer who can swing by my place in Fairfield West 2165 to give me a consultation on how to go about fixing it to industry standards? This is for my stat write off R34 with front end damage and I'm looking to have it repaired and reregoed. Any help would be highly appreciated :)

and NO, stat write offs CAN be re-registered and this has already been clarified by the RTA/RMS so this will not be a topic to debate.

Never mind. Just found out it cannot be done since it is within 15 years old. Kind of stupid actually how you can repair a car that is older rather than newer. People who make these laws and legislation have no common sense.

Wrecking time!

Couldnt just wait for it to become more than 15 years old?

Yeah I was thinking of leaving it till next year, but not gona bother fighting for it anymore. My insurance didn't give me any salvage rights and I had to auction it back and apparently after buying it back from a 3rd party, it's no longer eligible for a Repair Authorization.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
