Booked in for inspection tomorrow 3:00pm at Dickson :)
Pretty farken keen!

Got myself a UVP for the day and if it fails then they will give me a weekly UVP to get shit sorted.

The only concern I have is that the black rims might rub on the guards but they passed when they were on the 33

So the swapping of rims was a success, the black rims fit nice on the 34 but they do poke on the front.

Couldn't find the source of the rattle with the suspension, got the back seat with (with robs advice) and everything looked fine.

Removed the spare tyre etc and the noise was still there.

It 100% sounds as if the suspension is loose so I'll have to have a closer look on the weekend, I might grab your help with this Rob if it's okay?

Wish me luck with the inspection today :D

SO I FAILED!

BUT there is a silver lining of this cloud.

Because they found one source of the rattle in my suspension, the front part is missing two bolts.

Also my left blinker has fallen out of the holder.

The guy was really nice and said fix those two things and bring it back tomorrow morning, he will then pass it :)

The bummer though is that I have to now organise another UVP which is bloody expensive at $40 a pop

Umm I don't know how to upload rob but I'll send it to you.

Should be able to steal the bolts off the 33 to pass the inspection and hopefully the blinker isn't too hard.

Hopefully get all that done tonight and go for re-inspection tomorrow before 8:00

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
