i was pulled over recently @ a defect blitz in the city (one of many going around at the moment) but lucky i had my standard exaust on for a while now and only need put my stock airbox on in place for the pod filter, the police officer took a photo of my engine bay and told me if the EPA want to see my car in person ill get a letter.

So, he didn't say i will get one, he told me maybe, they let me off too, top cops.

I hope they are too busy to even bother.

man whats going on the EPA are now the one's issueing and telling people whats RWC and whats not this ant wirte. i have being told that you can only get a RWC tester to state what is un-RWC and RWC on a car not the cops or the EPA if i get EPAed and they say my pod and other bits and pices are illegal ill thell were to put it. my reason be hind this is the EPA is responserble for the enviroment not the RWCness of a car :)

I must have been lucky too,

Perhaps with the amount of police sending imports and the similar turbo sports cars through places like macleod, the employees are getting slacker, over worked?

that would be a nice scenario...

on the other hand, when i was there the blokes were really friendly and if you treat them with some respect it goes a long way.

goodluck.

      To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...

      Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.

      Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
