i just bought my first skyline to but not my first car. I live in NSW and am on my Green Ps but atm the car is unregister so there is no temptation to drive it and lose my licence. i dont think you will get exampt. how long do you have to go till you get your open licence?

  • Like 1

i know people may think that and im not going to try change it i will accept it and leave it as that, yes i may drive silly at times, but the risk of losing my exemption or licence that i need both for work for is to much so i do the right thing pretty much all the time.

im on my reds and go to first year of greens in September, so a long way yet :/

its 125kw/t

all the rules im talking about is in queensland.

you won't get the exemption because they won't accept a dyno read out as the power figure

anyone could go and get their car detuned to a low dyno read out to send in with their exemption application and then head back down to the tuners the next day and get it tune back to 200rwkw.... have you considered this ?

as above, i have my doubts about you getting an exemption. let us know how it goes though.

many have tried to thwart the system, none have. I spent quite a lot of time back in my early P plate period trying to find a loophole in the system.

"no vehicles over 6 cylinders" - "but sir! rotaries don't have cylinders"

you just have to deal

You won't be granted an exemption, so I have no idea why you keep thinking you will.

Thanks :)

Is there any other difference with the 94?

One of my grandfathers coworkers is a skyline nut. And says that a good mod for me to do would be upgrade the front hubs to r33 gtr hubs (hubs rotors and everything) he said the reason for this is to go from 4 pot calipers to 6 pot

Would this be worth the effort?

No silly driving just my grandparents are all anal about saftey in cars like breaks and tyers

They said they wanted me having bigger breaks and slotted and drilled on the car I said I will just get slotted rotors and new pads to fit what's on there.

Thanks :)

Skyline nut that thinks the factory Brembo's are 6-pot, good stuff :laugh:

    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go.
