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:

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
