My mate who got defected 2 weeks ago, got defected again lastnite. But apparently the police did not take the car off him.

So i was just wondering why they didnt take the car off him..

My question is how many tyms does he have to get caught to get his car taken off him.

Does neone know the NSW Law

is there something wrong with getting defected for the same thing over and over even if u get it cleared?

if it get's cleared and you get done again then morally, yes... legally, not enough details to say lol!

I copped a defect for a low tyre over a year ago and only got a fine, hadn't paid that and got done again for the same thing and was issued a notice that i had 3 days to drive the car and something like 14 to clear it before rego would be cancelled.

Neither time did the police even consider taking my car... it would have to be some pretty insane defects for them to take your car (and i mean INSANE)

i'm pretty sure the only reason they impound your car is for burnouts or street racing...

they never take the car for defects, only if they consider the car unroadworthy they will make you tow it away(home or to a mechanic)

ive been fined 4 times for the same things each time i got them cleared with a dodgie blue slip then fined again, each time i got the same fine and same amount to pay.

      Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell

      gtr hood match gt/gtt front fenders?

      By JC71 · Posted

      would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
