hey guys there is a downshift meting at rocklea show grounds this sunday, would be good to get a few v35's down there all together. i haven't been to one yet and this is my first one, and most of my mates say that a lot of different car groups that go down in a big group. hopefully we all can meet and go down together

Disappointing by the cops.

I don't know what the solution is to making the modified car scene more civil, but the attitude by the police i these instances certainly doesn't help.

There's downright illegal, then there's borderline. A lot of the cars at these meets have way too many illegal mods on them. Funny thing is that they could easily engineer a lot of the mods that they have but choose not to. :/

I wasn't there an haven't seen pics but I don't disagree with you either.

As far as I'm concerned, the people driving around with rusty gaurds rolled with a baseball bat, stretched and shredded tyres, decatted straight pipes and dragging their bits all over the road are as bad for the scene as cops who deliberately and over zealously target anything that isn't factory specification.

I'd be happiest if neither turned up to the meets, then maybe I would feel safe turning up!

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
