Yesterday on the way to glenelg i was pulled over by a cop on a bike on his way to the defect sation down at mosley square. Apparantly he pulled me over because i accelerated to hard a few streets down and said he would take my license away, then said he would make a deal with me. If he could defect me he wouldnt take it away he was a real asshole some big guy with glasses and kept saying 'bro' alot. You guys prob know him cause ye lots of skylines get pulled over at glenelg.

anyway my rear was 20 mm to low and i have to go to regency.. what a ball breaker just thought i'd share that with ya. cause they saw the Ps and a skyline to much attention the car pulls.

p.s when i was pulled over a nice black GTR r33 boosted past anyone here??

oh and on the way back to my car later that day he pulled over a brand new ferrari....

nope if it is a Regency defect you are screwed - take the car back to completely standard and they will still find worn bushes, imperfect tyres, dirty brake fluid, minor fluid leaks at the back of the trans/engine etc etc .... sorry man you are royally screwed.

However I thought they had to find 3 things in order for it to be a Regency defect - otherwise like scandy said you should be able to get it cleared by a local cop shop

my business got broken into on friday night

took like $150 worth of drugs..but the total damage was well over $4000

instead of cruising along anzac hwy looking for cars to defect (no not stolen cars)

they should send more patrol around and make good use of tax payers money...F*#&*@#)$#*@#@

:P

yep I can't agree more Andy .... not to mention the amount of bald-tyre rust-buckets driving around that shouldn't be on the road - yet they pick on our meticulously maintained machines for minor issues that really have no negative bearing on roadworthiness in the real world (lower centre of gravity actually = safer driving and more control).

Welcome to the club :P

Yes i agree with stripping it back to std and im going to make sure ive gotten under and checked every bush in my car myself.

They dont have to find 3 things, its 1. The copper that defected me showed me his book with each item showing where they have to send u to clear each defect (so he knows how to fill out the damn form more like)

Suspension (too low as i got done) is a VIS -Regency only.

edit/ if it was me id be filling out a complaint (ask cop for his badge number and name) as he sounds like he was being a prick. The guy who defected me was ok, so i dont have a problem...

thats bullshit. sadly it'll never end.

i dont mind if its a justified reason for a defect, fine etc. its just the bullshit ones. My R31 got defected for no water in the window washer bottle. yet he didn't realise the rb25det centimetres away....you hear some wierd stories out there...most cops are reasonable if you share their view, its the other ones who have nothing better to do.

this is the reason why i didn't get a performance car =) i was so excited on getting a r31 gtsr that when i started to hear all these stories and all my mates starting to get defecting and shit i thought a P plater like me would get ripped apart out there! so i'm gonna settle with a nice simple mazda 323 sometime this week maybe! so yeah i chose to get a car i can get around in without cops eye balling me! what scared me the most was when i was on regency road ibehind a really f**ked up van! i mean it had rust everywhere and the body was all dented and stuff! a riced up rex was next to it and then a cop turned onto the road and he was next to me and he was talking on his radio! he then flashed his lights and pulled the rex over! i don't know what happened after that but i have a pretty good idea and yeah that freaked me out and stopped me from getting the r31!

If you gun it at any rate in front of a cop, they can pull yo over, and do you for hooning.

Hooning if you look on SAPOL is like an instant towaway of your vehicle and 2500 on spot fine max. So gunning it around or in the vacinity of cop patrolling areas is risky, as we have rb20s and rb25s its not that hard to hear us scream.

EDIT: Oh and you RB26ers :happy:

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
