Hey Red Sky II, I registered my Spec II Yesterday. Took me from 7:30 in the morning when they open to 4:20 in the afternoon to get it done, fantastic. I would like to say thank you very &*(@$*&% much to the boyz at east perth licencing. DONT GO THERE if the car has any mods. They ran me around all day because of an aftermarket front bar and round clear front indicators. If its stock then no worries. Good luck

Mine got knocked back yesterday afternoon at Welshpool due to a supposed hairline fracture in the front of the muffler and they wanted some disconnected, non-functioning aftermarket foglamps removed. Gotta try again on Monday now.

Stupid thing is that in the boot or hidden elsewhere were the mods that were removed for compliance and registration (eg turbo timer, Air Flow meter, strut brace, racing pedals, etc, Blitz BOV). What do they think I am going to do with them once registered - leave them in the boot !!!

thats hopeless hey, They didnt even get to the boot of mine.

He cheked everything that they normally do, like suspension etc, lighting , horn, wipers ....etc and then went underneath and looked around, nothing to report there because the car is dead stock except for the front bar, thats it. Then as he was walking in to go do my paperwork he decided maybe he should scrutinise the front bar alittle more.

I hope that they dont give you any more crap. its easier to rock up to a carline muffler centre and just get them to give you a report to say that the muffler etc is fine and not leaking and that should be kewl. it seems to me that it is all about liability. as long as someone else is willing to say it is okay and put their name to it then they are happy with that.

what a bunch of Kn*bs

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
