Out of curiosity, does any one know how long it normally takes to get your plates after passing your car over the pits? and do you get a permit or something to drive the car during the interim? I'm assuming it'd take a couple of weeks but I have no idea.

They give them to you straight away.

Keep in mind that Welshpool are the last pits left so if you go to somewhere like a K-Mart Tyre & Auto there may be some delay.

I'll call them first thing Monday morning I guess and see what times I can book it in. Current Goal is to have it rego'd before Friday (going to take it to KYP Tue Arvo or Wed Morning to get it "inspection ready". hopefully take it over pits thursday, or earlier, depending on how long KYP take with the car.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
