:D Hey all as the topic says got pulled over this afternoon and copped a yellow for my GT wing....

Was to be expected really, but I did say I would leave it on until I got one..haha :D

Anyway don't bother turning this into a cop bashing thread as to be honest they (yes all three) were quite decent with me and my car.

But more to the point I need to borrow some standard rubber pads that go over your pedals. As I only got my yellow for the GT wing but am guessing they might pick on other stuff also, the aftermarket pedals being the only real stand out.. Let me know if this is not the case.

So if anyone has some spare just sitting around...would appreciate a lend so I can take it over :P

what are the pedals like?

if they have some form of rubber to aid grip, they should be fine.

nor can they be too close together.

:P

i have a lovely set of (expensive) razo ones that came with my car, all metal however, so illegal :D

they are very good to drive with too :D

I wouldn't say they are very close together, and they do have a rubber bits on them, but I still rekon they will pick on them. Also have an aftermarket diff which they might not like if they need to take it for a drive...

Yeah monitor is fantastic... cheers Alpha..

Do you need to book a time to take your car over the pits or just rock up??? Need to go to Welshpool as it is the closest to work..

First sticker in 4 years since I started driving Skylines so I am not doing to bad.. :D

Some pits are better than hours. I suggest you try and find someone who knows which are more lenient. I *did* know, but.. it's been too long now to recite them accurately. :D

This is the first yellow I have ever had out of my collection of imports over the years....which is saying alot...

It is indeed not a bad run of luck. Did you ever get the "Random license and vehicle Inspection" with your cars?

Hope my luck is the same as yours.

Only ever been pulled over once and that was on a cruise about a year ago. Other than that always slipped under the radar so to speak...

Junr34 I think it might be GTSTVSPEC you are thinking of...heard he has had around 7-8 yellows from the wing....poor bugger.

      Chatting one someone recently at racing them at QR. They say you can't take turn 2 in one flat stick in 4th. They don't have the torque to pull them selves straight, so make sure you're ringing it's neck out in 3rd instead

      Should you buy cheap Chinese tyres?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Many years ago when I bought my FG XR6T, it came with bald tyres on the back (think pretty much smooth for most of the tread) and brand new Kinforest cheap shit tyres on the front. In the rain, I had more grip in the bald ass tyres on the back, than the brand new Kinforest. To the point you couldn't drive off at a set of lights and turn the corner. Car would only go straight. Very quickly all four tyres were replaced.   A few years back on a VF SV6 I had, it came with brand new chineesium tyres. In the wet at 90kmh, old 1990s tray back tradie utes could corner faster than me. There was one corner on a freeway, in a 90 zone, it's not even marked to reduce speed for those curve, it's not a hard corner, I could put the LandCruiser on mud tyres through with ease (it would easily do the corner in the wet I reckon at 120kmh), the VF however couldn't get through it at 80, as it would want to slide out.   Cheap tyres aren't worth the risk. I like decent brakes, and decent grip.

      It shouldn't swell like that, (just looked it up) it should say SAE J30R10

      Anyone here a submersible fuel hose expert? I pulled my hanger out again for unrelated issues and noticed the hose I popped on last week has already swollen. This is Gates 27093 submersible hose. I've waiting on a response from Gates, but this surely can't be normal? This is on pump gas, not E85.  Is swelling a tad possibly normal? I've also been fighting with my power steering belt.... I've now tossed one and killed two. I just realigned my pulleys again, hoping this time it stays on. It doesn't like high rpm.

      Don't want to side track from the thread too much (don't want to upset the thread starter's run from 2007) so here's some old rusted Nissan Laurels in a parking lot in Nishinomiya, Hyogo-ken:
