Hi Everyone,

I'm relocating from SA to Springfield Lakes. Can you help me with a suggestion of where I should go for a RWC and mod plate?

In another thread I was told my car looked low and that the cops would pull me up straight away. I believe my car is standard height and it's the illusion of the kit that give it the appearance of being low.

Here are the photos I took for the transport company

I can get 2 fingers in between the tires and guard front and rear. Is it too low?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers.

space between guards and tyres is not an issue, as long as the lowest point of your car (including the exhaust just near the diff) is above 100mm

What parts of the car need to be mod plated?

Everything is above 100mm (when checked on level ground)

I have no idea what needs mod plating (because I'm not familiar with your regulations)

My list of mod are:

Secured Apexi pod (not in a box)

z32 AFM

hard suction kit

T04 Turbo

Stainless ext. manifold

Turbo back ext. with hi flow cat etc. Not loud

Manual boost controller (22psi)

FMIC (metal was cut to accommodate the piping to the throttle body)

After market BOV that is 100% recirculating

Q45 Throttle body

Freddy forward facing intake manifold

1000cc injectors

Top feed fuel rail

Turbo smart FPR

Walbro pump

RB20DET ECU with nistune, running E85

permanent wideband lambda, boost, temp gauges to DLP-I08 and Consult

I think that's about it

You will need a mod plate for the turbo at the very least and the hole for the FMIC will probably need to be certed as well, as for the rest I'm not sure. The reo being cut will be a defect if it is found and can't be mod plated.

I know of a mobile mod plate guy on the northside but I'm not sure how far he roams to plate cars. As everyone said keep your SA rego until you have everything up to scratch.

    • Um.... This is not easy. I will have a fiddle with it, but make no promises. I think, given the explicit resistances vs temperature, and your ECU measured voltages, it should be possible to match them up. I will do that by assuming a 5V supply from ECU to sensor, find out how much current would have to flow to produce that voltage, then use that current as a .... nah f**k. That won't work. The supply voltage is fixed, but there's nothing to say that the ECU regulates the current too. Um... I dunno. I guess there's a voltage divider setup in the ECU. As in, there's another resistance between the ECU's sense terminal and ground. That way, as the sensor resistance changes, that's how they get a floating voltage that varies with the temperature, without having to control the current. Give me a minute or 3.
    • *that* is a question for chatgpt (or someone that understands maths....but I'd try chatty). Drop them the table and ask for the formula
    • Alright. Exhaust has been looked at, and booked in 'soon'. I'm not 100% convinced it's going to be as good as possible but I'm going to go with it anyway. If I get a reasonable thing that works for 10 years I mean that's twice as long as I've lived with the current one. I have a more pressing issue. I have fixed my MPVI3 (by buying a new one). Excellently, one can wire in analog 0-5v inputs to the ECU itself. I had wideband already via Serial so I also wired it in via the direct input. The idea being I can use the standalone logging without a laptop and have Wideband data in it. The other wire I thought I'd use oil temp. This is where I've gone crazy. HPTuners requires you to implement a formula so you know how much volts = how much temp. This seems relatively simple to me. However I cannot find the scale for this anywhere on the internet, nor decipher how to figure it out without removing the sensor from the car. All I know is that voltage actually goes up as temperature goes down. I am using the actual gauge, so I can see what the temp is. The signal wire has been branched off into the MPVI3. EXAMPLE: 2.68v = 58C 2.7 = 57C 2.74v = 56C 2.8V = 54C 3.06V = 49C 3.18V = 47C 3.37V = 43C I think the gauge is 50-150C. It may be more. It may be less, because I can't find it for the love of f**k. It appears all the information about the gauges I have has been scoured from the internet, but the sender is VDO 320.021 I believe the resistance chart is this How the f**k do I convert this to a voltage? Once I have a voltage... I then have to perform this transform of said voltage to show it in the scanner: https://www.hptuners.com/help/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm @GTSBoy you're probably my only hope here TEST YOUR MIGHT
    • Here’s the updated and installed muse replica nismo ones … very happy with the outcome. Eventhough I painted my whole rear end due to my rich idle lol. 
    • Hmm. I had a good look (w/o searching, because I'm not logging in) and couldn't see it either. I distinctly recall the thread, not many weeks ago. It must have been removed or perhaps put into the back section. If it was in Off Topic you should at least have been able to search it up. So if I'm not hallucinating, it is fairly decently removed.
