Haha that's hilarious!

Are you taking your own car to the track day? My 33 runs out of rego this Tuesday so I won't be taking it, but I'll keep an eye out for your car :thumbsup:

Hmmm... Start it up and jiggle every electrical connection under the bonnet and see if you can get it to happen again.

AFMs, Ignitor, CAS, O2, Coolant Sensor, injectors etc... If nothing then check Fuel system. ie. Pump is ok? Electrical Plug, Filter, Got Petrol in tank?

Just food for thought Eric to start with.

When I put a Bosch 044 in the 33 I earthed out the pump wires so the pump always ran at full capacity rather than dropping to low speed at idle etc.

It Definitely ran stronger.

If you still have the Factory pump in there, maybe it's time for an Upgrade. :yes:

Just a question to those that have had an unregistered vehicle permit for a day before. It says on the rego.act website that you may need an inspection report of the vehicle if applicable.

Has anyone actually ever needed an inspection report before?

Cheers

Never needed one for the UVP. Had to get one when I first brought the car in from Japan in both SA and ACT jurisdictions. It's usually just a piece of paper from over the counter. I was told though that the UVP was only good for driving the car within ACT so had to run the gauntlet briefly to get it over to ESP which was only a few 100 metres outside of the border.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Chris.

Yeah I did notice that it is for ACT only but then also noticed on RMS it says "NSW recognises permits issued in all other jurisdictions provided the vehicle is operated in accordance with the conditions of the home jurisdiction."

But then I suppose to the ACT UVP conditions are that its for the ACT only anyway, so catch 22.

My car runs out of rego on the 20th and because I'm between jobs at the moment I don't want to pay for rego when I've already got my daily rego'd. We've got this track day on the 24th :( I'm thinking I may just go halvsies and hire a car with another guy again.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
