NSW police, RTA and EPA owned me last night


Recommended Posts

i dont think you have to follow them if they ask you... i mean what if they are frauds and they lead you to a place to get mugged or raped or something.. you never know these days man.. i'd be abit worried following a cop somewhere in the back of my mind i'll be thinking what if he's not really a cop or what if he's doing something dodgy.. ...i'd be sooo ready to crack him at the slightest hint.. i'll prolly lay him out if he sneezes hahahaha

I must've got a honest cop.

No fines, just defect notice. He knew his stuff though, looked @ tyre specs plaque inside the door and checked tyres.

Defect for air filter and exhaust too noisy.

He even said I just need the filter covered/boxed.

There are some good cops out there...just wish they'd focus more on catching the crims doing number jobs on cars :D

What about all of us who imported cars with "illegal" mods already on them, like a pod filter?

if theyre illegal, then we shouldnt get a pink slip with those mods on? yet when i bought my car, i got a 1-yr rego with it aswell and it obviously passed the pink slip...surely thats something tot ell the cops when they pull ya over?

but then again theres the possibility of them not believing you that it came like that.

hmmmm

thats totally farked!

I got canaried on friday night at 2am doing 60km/h minding my own business!!

I got done for

POD

Boost controller

Exhaust 2 loud

Now the real crap stuff:

Digital Display (safc) in line of driver sight

Front spoiler loose

Amps in boot not secured

filler neck not to ADR!!

And a $165 fine for driving a modified vehicle.

the last 4 were total crap.

Took car to roadworthy place and guess what i dont have to change any of the crap the cop wrote, just but new bushes at the front and he passed me!!

He said i know even if i tell u to take the pod/boost controller off that i would just put it back on, which is true! :)

The rest he said was just crap he wrote to fill in all the places!!

How can cops say that a vehicle is too loud? Do they all carry a sound meter? This is crap. Cops can't tell the difference between 80db and 100db, let alone 90db and 95db.

INASNT: How the hell are boost controllers a defect?

You should have told them that ths amps were luggage.. They can't defect you for loose luggage in the boot, else we all have to start bolting our suitcases down!

they recon u aint allowed to have adjustable boost on the street!

they dont have to prove its 2 loud just suspect it and u have to get it checked!

They just have 2 much power these days, and the cops on the street are even more stupid and arrogant than before!

Its a dangerous combo, stupid cop with ego problems who have 2 much power!

All i can say is this shit sucks a$$ big time, i am still one of the lucky ones that has never even been pulled over but im sure if that day ever comes mine will drive off on a flat top.

That is why when in a few month i get my new paint and cage i will get an engineers slip for it, but i still know if a cop wants to go me he can though i will have more chance of getting off with it.

Dam 500 could have got you something nice.....like me for a week:shake: :lol:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
