Okay i just got defected.. didn't get issued a fine but i have to front up for a full inspection.
Heres the notice (sorry its hard to read, blame the coppers shit handwriting).
Basically he's said
"pollution control equipment disconnected"
"Venting BOV fitted"
"Race pod filter fitted"
"air filter cover missing- ADR" (wtf??)
"steering wheel to comply with ADR 10" - (he argued that it was too small and doesnt meet impact rules due to exposed metal)
"Gauge on A pillar head impact area" (I have a boost gauge)
Heres a pic of my interior-
He was also insistant that this is the original nissan BOV, i'm not sure...
I have a number of concerns. I have to ring within 7 days to book an inspection at QT where they will go over the faults.. on the form hes ticked 'Modifications" and "engine/drivelines/emissions". (the form says "replacmeent repairs or alterations to the items indicated by the tick and/or the written defects set out below"
I know that it is illegal in QLD to have mismatched sized tyres (i got 235 fronts 265 rears) and he didn't tick wheels and tyres...will they still look at this??
I also have coilovers and i dont think the ride height is legal, again he didn't tick 'steering and suspension' will they still look at this??
My plan is to rip out the boost gauge, beg/borrow/buy a standard steering wheel and airbox, make up a blocking plate where my bov is but i dont think that will be enough.
I need help on this matter, can anyone whos been in a similar situation or can offer some advice please help????
