hi all

New to this forum discussions - and recently back to Perth.

Appreciate this is a skyline forum - but I need help please - for a GtiR

Looking to get an interstate club rego car registered here..

- the key non standard items are :-- - oil cooler; front mount intercooler (now relocated to the front); and larger injectors and fuel pump

 

Could you please help me by pointing me to any discussions on this thread.. Further, any help is appreciated

 

thanks in advance

Oil cooler is a non-issue.

FMIC should not be an issue in WA.

Larger injectors are not technically legal anywhere in Australia, as they imply a "modification of an emissions control system". And essentially they imply that the ECU has been fiddled with/replaced, which is the same situation.

If there's no obvious sign that the engine management has been altered, you could just try your luck. I would recommend that you just contact the WA roads dept and ask them what the process is for transferring interstate rego'd cars is, and then once they tell you that, mention that it is on club reg and ask if that means anything different, and then find out what the inspection requirements will be.

You really need to know what the basis of the car being on club reg now is. Is it because it is problematically modified and the owner put it on club reg to sidestep the rego process? Or is it legitimately just an occasional use car on club reg to keep costs down? Club reg is not supposed to be abused to get around the rules, but it has been done plenty.

      (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.

      Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things

      My new to me M35 Stagea wagon

      By davemoto63 · Posted

      Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
