and gts-boy when i went into Vicroads and asked to update the engine number i didn't "tell them it came out in that chassis"

i asked can my records be updated with the 26 that i put in it as i couldn't find a decent 25 and they said that is fine :cheers:

Smart comeback.

It's all a bit moot in the context of the OP's RB26 anyway, seeing as it is "fully built engine making 490rwkw" - meaning that it won't even be close to legal in Victoria anyway, engineering required or not. Especially if not.

As Ben said, "Boost off into the sunset . Suckers!"

You guys seem really keen to avoid getting your cars "engineered". How much does it cost? My car is non standard in at least 10 significant ways but "low volume certification" done by an approved engineer cost me $550 which is pretty standard (it does vary a bit but not much).

I fairly sure all the " authorities " would have is Nissan as the make, R34 Skyline as the model and GT/GT-t/GTR as the variants, they most certainly wouldn't have all the chassis differences listed nor care about them, as far as they are concerned they are the same chassis and that is what matters, its not about cheating them and not some big conspiracy

IIRC in NSW you are allowed to go either 15 or 20% bigger in capacity providing the engine is from the same family, ie RB for RB and SR for SR etc

All I was objecting to was the idea of telling them "It came out in this chassis" which is an outright lie. I don't care what the f**k else you clowns think you can get away with.

now you've resorted to petty name calling, which obviously means your argument isn't valid and that what we have been trying to explain to the original poster, is that what he wants to do is perfectly fine in the eyes of the people who actually matter

Which is true but he is arguing a point he doesn't know 100%, now the OP has gone to his local governing body and asked the question to someone that works there and got his response and for all GTSboy knows the guy that works they know his job and gave the correct answer, so who does OP believe, the person that works at Vic Roads and someone on a forum from a different state

As for his argument its a different chassis, its concidered an R chassis, and to the best of my knowledge there isn't an R chassis 1, an R chassis 2 or an R chassis 3, they are all considered an R chassis and the differences in the build codes are to dictate what that R chassis got like a 2.5 or 2.6, 2WD or 4WD etc, but still all the same chassis code no matter what little differences there actually are

    • Cam seals go hard. It's a very old car.

    • So my rb is finally having more problems. 2 issues here but I'm here to just to mainly discuss the rattle noise. The other day when I turned on the car and when I take off or go in reverse, there is a temporary rattle noise but when I cruise, boost, idle it's completely fine no rattle whatsoever. I've also done all the servicing, all the health checks you can think of and it all passes with flying colours.  Also the rattle doesn't increase with rpm, it's only at a very certain rpm (slightly above 1,100rpm). My other car also has the same issue every once in a while. Changed the oil recently, no difference. Even took my oil to a lab and everything was quite good surprisingly. Timing belt changed a while ago to. Had the car on the hoist and can't see anything obvious. Tightened a couple of nuts on the exhaust manifold a couple of months ago. 2 different clips uploaded. One of them was supposed to another issue but I'll save that for another time. Thought I'd see if anyone had this same noise before, it's a bit hard to diagnose while it's intermittent. If I'm not mistaken, I think I had this a while back but can't remember exactly. I was thinking if it's doable I'll get someone to hold the throttle cable at 1,100rpm and hopefully it replicates the sound. rb25det rattle only.mp4 rb25det slow start + rattle.mp4
