    The Defected Thread...

    in South Australia

    Posted

    Print out the ADRs and then draw a scaled down drawing of your wing, it'll take you 5 minutes and will go a long way to convincing any traffic sergeants at the police station, good work looking it up though, I would do the same, ring every bloody cop station in Adelaide until someone removes it for you.

    Good news.. I fixed it all thank God and it was fairly simple.. I called maybe 6 or 7 police stations, the moment they hear it's a 'regency' defect they don't wanna help or anything.. The trick was simply rocking up to a police station and giving them the form as if it was completely normal, my cop was so nice, he just looked to see if the spoiler was there, took the sticker off and I payed 26.50 and it was over.. I dunno if he missed the fact it was a regency defect or if he didnt care, but it worked and I was right outa there.. As for the spoiler, I will put it back on and if I get pulled over for 'sharp edges' I'll take out a copy of the relevant ADR's and my measuring tool and show them that in fact my spoiler is legal, bastards!!! lol :P

    Find the ADRs regarding spoilers including all measurements, make the effort to draw up the dimensions of your wing and show how it fits the ADRs (providing it does), if you can do this and go down the cop shop I can guarantee you they will remove it for the basic inspection fee which I think is around $20.

    Pain in the ass but that is the best way you will get heard without going to regency, then with your evidence that the issuing officer was wrong file a complaint.

    Thing is you need this evidence or its going to be very hard to argue your case, with a bit of digging around you should be able to find the relevant ADRs though.

    Regarding whether it is regency or not it is meant to be a major defect or suspicion of one, but its not a hard rule, they can put regency down for bald tyres or an oil leak if they want.

    Thanks guys for helping me out.. The cop who defected me said the spoiler needs a 5 mm radius of curvature or more to not be 'sharp', he's assistant cop said something about 10 mm's- get this though, after going on ther ADR's website AND calling up regency themselves, it turned out that 'sharp' is 2.5 mm or less, my spoiler has a radius of 3.1 mm.. Literally the cop made up crap and thought I wouldn't look into it, him and his sidekick lied to me.. After goingto Holden Hill the lady there (who was nice but at the same time like a fishbone down the throat) said she wont remove the defect but will give me an extension to drive the car until the regency appointment.. What I'm gonna do is drive from police station to police station asking for a defect removal (the Elizabeth story hs encouraged me haha) and hopefully that'll work. Then I will be filing a complaint and lawsuit against the cop who lied and did this (I have his name and badge number).. Quick question, if it doesn't work and I must go thru regency, the one thing I gotta change is te HID Xenon lights to halogen globes, anyone know a special globes or way to fit halogen globes straight into r34 headlights?? cheers guys

    Custom Plates In Sa

    in Suspension, braking and tyres

    Posted

    hey guys I've been thinking for a while to get custom plates for my 34, but am worried if cops will remember me and give me crap. Wanted to ask has ne1 had bad experience with this or heard of ne1 that has? Has ne1 got custom plates only to realize that all cops know them and want to defect them and pull them over much more giving them a hard time. I just came out of regency so didnt wanna go thru the hassle again :/ thanks (Y)

    REPORT HIM!! I got let off before for a $580 fine because he abused me and smoked in my face, it works!! do it and don't be hesitant.. I just came out of regency too, so long as ur exhaust is lower than 90dB at 3,300 rpm then you're fine, and it depends on who you get in regency :D

    goodluck!!

    hey guys I got the Hipermax HKS coilovers, adjustable and all. As I take off slowly from the light I could hear slow creaking in the back suspension, is that normal for coilovers or are mine on the way out?? Cheers :D
