if you looking for the glass half of the driver's mirror pm me iv got 1 sitting round.. but i had to use the mounted half of it for mine
-
can i just say well done on those huge darkies left on the road
sorry to who ever owned that crazy 33
and well done for giving it heaps.. thats what it was made for (not the hitting the tree part)
if no1 was seriously injured why not laugh it off instead of paying out on whoever was driving?

At the end of the day that person is still a human being, and deserves some respect for that, don't judge a person by their career choice. If it wasn't a cop you wouldn't be cheering that he wrote the car off.
.
not having a personal go at your response, just wanted to point out that i know some1 has to stick up for the cop as it might not have even been their fault but you can see where some ppl are coming from as THEY (the cops) dont think twice about jumping to a conclusion about some1 driving an imported car is automatically doing something wrong and needs a fine or a defect
they can pick on us in person but we cant give it back to their face so why not have a stab off the road
-
they test a 33 at 4800.. thats what this place's book said anyways
-
thats where i got mine done they were good enough just to have a quick look under to check i put the stocky back on and they just wrote out 1 of them epa things to send away
-
i got my epa in the mail a couple of weeks ago and failed my test(got 103db's).. put my stock cat back system on with cable ties(took a whole 10mins) and went back for the retest and they didnt even turn my car on.. just payed them $20 and they gave me a thing to send to the epa.. if you want to come borrow my stock cat back just let me know as iv allready put my 3" back on.. im in mentone
-
yeah they cant just post you a $1k fine cos some dickhd that knows nothing wants to be a cnt.. i got my first epa going back about a year ago when my car was 100%stock with not 1 single mod.. that was just from a dickhd working at a booze bus writing down my plates
-
you've got a pm
-
-
yeah or borrow some1's like mine and copy it
mine says load index of 90 (500kg's) and speed rating no less than v
but iv only got a 93 gtst

He also meantioned use for drag racing now wheres the point if you cant gain full grip until u get to 3rd gear?
true that.. but id rather have the fun factor and no traction than be able to run a good time
this is exactly what i want now

dont need to pay out on the guy its a legit question.. iv also heard a rumor that if they make a mistake on a fine you dont have to pay it but im sure its bs

And as for the canary... Meh, it's a GOOD OMEN!
Simply because you cant get another canary while you have one on your car. :aroused:
thats not true sorry.. my mate had a tt supra with a canary for too low and tyre rating.. had 7 days to drive it around normally (in the cops words"drive it to the movies or what ever as you would normally do")
less than a week later he was "parked" on the side of the road.. cop on a motor bike pulls over and gives him another sticker (now he has 2 stickers on the windscreen), an hour or so to get the car home b4 the rego is suspended and another $165 fine for driving a defective vehicle (even tho it was parked on the side of the road and he wasnt driving.. wasnt even in the car)
while we're on the topic i got a canary 2 thursdays ago down st kilda beach way for my front tyres having un even tyre wear meaning i need to go get a front end alignment (got 1 about 6months ago when i got new tyres), exhaust to be checked by epa, and drivers seat to be secured tighter (nothing even wrong with it) that also came with a $165 fine
today i go and get a rwc and go to vicroads and the tosser wont take the canary off without seeing a receipt for the wheel alignment even tho i told him im friends with the guys that did it and i wasnt charged

Wasn't meant to be there for Jodie Lang's bday were ya??
not 100% sure on the name but i think it was a bec and 99.9%sure it wasnt jodie
was a friend of a friend's 25th
-
but no traction is a fun thing
-
would just a normal rb26 box be ok left in rwd?
is it just the extra weight of the box thats the only down side?
-
yeah the car would only be used as a daily driver, drift and drag..
and i got a price from a known performace workshop and they said a drive in and drive away rb26 conversion for around the $8k
i was thinking.. the closer to standard rb26 would last longer than a modded sr20
-
what are ceffy's going for these days anyways? around 10ish?
-
what about the leather off the gear stick? mine was lost and i need that metal bit from the bottom of it to hold it into the plastic
-
i wouldnt mind a ceffy.. keep it looking stock and i wouldnt be hassled to hard by cops..
whats the deal with importing modded cars? can it still be done?
-
Hey I think it might be time to sell the line and go for a better project and the 1st thing that comes to mind is a 180 with a rb26 for the main reason of it shouldn’t be that expensive..
Pick up an old 180 ca18 for around 7-8k?
A 32 gtr half cut should be around the 6k?
1st question is can I import a slightly modded 180?
Like I want a full cage, nice tight locked diff and maybe some after market suspension and a few gauges even?
2nd question is can I use a rb26 gearbox on a rwd car? Or do I need a box off a rb25? Or if any1 else has any ideas id love to hear them
3rd question is what other parts would I need?
fuel pump? Im sure theres heaps more
And last question is what sorta brake upgrade could I go for?
-
i was meant to be there for a bday on saturday but didnt end up going.. heard it was average anyway
-
i have had 3 canary's in 2 months and total of $495 in fines. i hate this state.
im on my 2nd canary in the last 2months atm both came with $165 fines for driving a defective car..
and iv lost 6points and a total of $1065 worth of fines that are seperate to the canarys in the last month
also got an epa notice in the mail yesterday
and i just had my licence suspended for 4months midnight lastnight for running outta points.. i love vic more!
-
If it makes you feel better, I know a guy here in Sa who got done purely for having too much camber on his rear wheels in a commodore - and there was a recall from GM about it! something defective with the rear suspension.
yeah but this cop was going off the fact that my front tyres had un even wear on them.. what happens if i bought 2nd hand rubber?
it gave me the impression that he didnt know what to dick me for but wasnt going to let me get away.. he tried to get me on hand brake clicks.. checked all my parkers and head lights
anyways we're getting off topic.. thanx for putting on the drift comp guys and hope to see you at the next 1
Fuel gauge issue, ideas ??
