Hey guys,

I'm lactosentolerant which means no dairy or you'll be shitting like no tomorrow..

I was on my way to a party when i started to feel pains so i was racing to the nearest maccas (dural at the time) to use the toilet.. so me being a dickhead doing 107 in a 60 zone on old northern rd castle hill i start to realise someone is following me, because it's dark i cant see that it's a cop car. so i pull into my school (oakhill college) and there was the cop. Cop told me i was caught on video etc doing 100+ and said that they were running a defect inspection tonight and asked me to follow them to somewhere in showground.. we ended up in a garage and there i saw 2 supras, a skyine and a lancer all being defected by RTA inspectors. Cop told me that i was doing bla bla in a 60 zone and if he wanted to be a dickhead he would charge me for 45 over and $1500+ fine but he only charged me with 30 over and a $590 fine.. I lost my licence for 3 months with a $590 fine.

On top of that they defected me saying that i needed engineer certificates for my exhaust and my wheels.

i've been defected before and it has been cleared but i didn't get engineer certificates.

ATM i don't know what to do. i've put my car for sale and i have defects to worry about? can anyone help out? can i appeal the fine? what to do about these defects?

below are pictures..

Thanks

1. Get them cleared then sell the car

2. Appeal and if found guilty the judge can make the suspension much longer for wasting his time, as you were in the wrong.

Think about it for a second:

-Young inexperienced driver on P plates

-In a defected Skyline

-Doing pretty close to double the speed limit regardless of your personal reason

......do you seriously think you have a chance of getting off that?

As for HOW to clear the defects - put all your stock parts back on, then get it passed, then put all the aftermarket stuff back on and take it to an engineers.

Do a search for engineer threads if you dont know the name of one

your best is to speak to a lawyer or solicitor and find out if u can use the medical condition as a way of getting out of it. if there is a chance of getting outta it then i reckon try. as for defects my uncle is a rta inspector and really all u can do is revert the car bak to stock get it cleared

they all require engineer certificates, if i put all the old shit on does that mean i can just show them and they won't ask me for an engineer certificate? just clear them through a mechanic?

i dont see how an illness makes you have to have illegal mods on your car?

the illness was for speeding, not modification.

Looks like i'll just have to pay the fine and cop it on the chin which im more then happy to do.. It's just really unlucky it had to come to this..

paying the fine within 21 days and then i get a letter from rta i think saying it's suspended.

Just dont speed.

Easy

im pretty sure that due to the notice for inspection u have to take it to a RTA station, if u were just handed the defect notice with part inspection you would just need a to pass pink slip at a workshop that can do blue slips..

whether u would have to do both is the question

i'm pretty it's only the blueslip place.. because everything on my car is legal. all it needs is the certificates.

if you are lactosentolerant....

wouldn't you know how to spell LACTOSE INTOLERANT?

stop trying to flame me every chance you get.. so i can't spell it, big deal.. doesnt proove shit.

get off my back will ya.

The defect doesnt look to bad...i guess. Part Inspection? Dont have them in W.A...all or nothing here

The fine...well you can appeal. If you appeal and lose , from memory the costs are on you. Also you going to need some corroborating evidence as to you condition. At least a stat dec from a Doc ...see a lawyer or chalk it up to another win for "them"

Can get my doctor to write something up for me no problem.. I don't know if i should bother seeing a lawyer and just pay the damn fine..at the end of the day i only got 3 months, it could of been worse i could of killed someone and thank god they stopped me..

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
