Hi guys. I was looking on the VicRoads website to find out what sorta s**t is defectable but dont seem to find much stuff.

Is a BOV defectable in Victoria? I was told by a buddie that it can be. What other things that most ppl put on their 'lines can be defectable by coppers? I dont want to get my 'line and then get it canaried as soon as it hits the roads.

Thanks dudes/dudettes

Atmo venting Bov's are defectable...

Mine is atmo but looks like a plumb back (which is legal), there is a return hose attched to mine that when u follow it actually goes to nowhere and is blocked at the end...

Other defects:

Guages, depending on where they are mounted.

Neons, all of them. Especially blue and red.

Loud exhaust, ie over 90db.

Lowering, ie lower than 10cm from any part of the car.

Load ratings on wheels. ie having to light a load rating wheel on your car.

I also heard you can get defected just for having a vanity plate that declares in any way that you are an innocent person... :)

u either have the noise, which the cops can hear.. 'cause if they pull you over to defect you, they'll get u on something...

or you keep it standard noise, and get same performance.

Best thing is to have an adjustable one which u can turn the "pshhh" noise up or down on when you want to.

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
