Do you think that the QLD police force might drop the charges???

I see know why many dont contest the fines... 7k is allot of money...

there is a good chance

based on a few facts against the police right now

1 of those facts being that the car actually passed not being a defective car

so that fine is instantly dismissed as u actually need to take it to court for them to dismiss it from your records.

the 'not having a modification plate', we've only got 1 thing going in our favour for this fine which i wont say till we run it through the court. but lets say its a f**kup that the cop did with the fine.

on the other hand, these modifications dont require a modification plate at all based on the fact, qld transport classifies what i've done as 'accessories' and 'every day use of a car'.

"anyone should have the right to ask any question they wish to a cop without feelin the threat that they are about to be ass raped by them with fines, etc".

There are a few on here who are still wondering why you did that, this guy in particular as well, but if you knock him down a notch or two because of this we will all benefit but..... maybe you have learned the unwritten law of dealing with cops esp dickheaded ones "let sleeping dogs lye" they have a tendancy to bite.

the question being thrown everywhere at the time was "those who are under the age of 25 and already got a import, will they be effected by the law?" and since we couldnt find anything anywhere at the time, i thought i'd ask the cop.

its no wonder people are more so against police these days because of dickhead cops like this that deter us from having any form of a "friendly" type relationship with them.

so you're sure the conversation got recorded? wasn't he at the service station filling his car up or something?

i'll double check with my flatmate (the cop) when she gets back this arvo but i dont think they record all conversations, but i'm guessing maybe you already know he did?

police alwas record their conversations unless its not possible for them to reasonably do so. Reason being they had huge problems with confessions and evidence holding up in court, hence the court has stated in many precedent cases that police must when reasonable tape all conversations with an accused, otherwise face the consequences of a possible not guilty decision.

Recouping costs from a case like this will be near impossible. Unless there has been some kind of misconduct or the like from the officer. I would like to know what loophole your pursuing that will allow you to recover costs personally, are you going to sue him civily? Because whilst he is a police officer peforming police activities he is acting under the discretion of the QLD police force and any action would be their problem and their cost. The most you can usually do is refer a complaint to the CMC when they (if they think its a bad case) slap him on the wrist. PM me if you dont wish to discuss in an open forum, but im very interested in how your arguing this case.

I was under the same impression Matt.

Didn't you say you found a loop hole of sorts MrToy? One that allowed you to pursue the cop at a civil level?

can you tell us exactly what the fines are and what they say?

btw, hows it going getting that law changed....no offence but id say you'll have about as much luck as selling ice to eskimo's. Noone will take the defect power away from the police, its not a public problem to cause some discomfort to modified car owners. The police were allowed to create their own act with all the powers they currently have (ppra) do you really think that they're going to take this power away. There are a whole lot more powers in there than need changing and are more of a nuisance to the public. ie. the police dog rules. (its to long to explain). But yea, good luck. Keen to see the outcome.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
