Safety cert = RWC doesn't it?

Yeah mate, but not all mechanics issue the certificates.

Try Russel at Autofine performance Labrador, not sure if he does them but he will point you in the right direction.

Oh, I realised that. Most mechanics that do it advertise it as a roadworthy check/certificate (RWC, at least the local ones here seem to), but what you get is called a safety certificate. It's been like that for a few years (along with the changes on selling a car registered with a SC etc)

thanx for the help, i got done for height, air filter, front mount (for not having mesh the idiot thinks its a "hot part") also he thinks im breaking emissions coz there is a plug near the throttle body that wasnt connected (its for the autos not manuals!) umm and left front tyre. the guy was a retard he just wanted to book me man. this was on musgrave st so watch out,

Ok i would check with the D.O.T. first what the legislation is on some of those defects, because they cant defect you on some shit that they make up.

Fair enough ride height under 100mm you will get done and a bald tyre, but front mount not having mesh thats a new one.

Air filter wasnt it secured properly.

yeah tyhe airfilter was secure but he said that it had to be in a box. he said the intercooler had to be meshed. and the grill (gtr imitation) had to be meshed up aswell. the guy was a loser. when i explained to him thw auto thing he was like (oh im not a skyline speacialist, if its ok then the mechanic will know)

the bloke was a loser

Last time i checked in QLD we only need to secure our pods not actually box them as well.

that is correct. they only need to be secured, not boxed.

check out my thread in regards to something similar to what you've just been defected for -

Seems like he just wanted to defect someone !... Pods unsecured yeah thats understandable .. funny one is intercooler why mesh it up !...prolly some idiot trying to do his quota for the day couldnt find anything else to do !

what is the best way to secure a pod??? I dont think mine is secrued, I didn't know it had to be??

Well zip ties are out of the question.

Some type of metal bracket secured to a solid fixing point.

    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
