Dear all,

Sorry, it's me again... as most of you know, my vehicle got defected for performance mods 2 weeks ago... well, just to update you, I've fixed up all my mods (removed mods rather)... so now what is the next step? Take it to a licensed tester/mechanic and get a RWC... after that, what do I do...

I'm guessing I then take my canary and WRC and bring it to VICROADS to get them clear my defect and then I'm free as a bird again? Any other procedures? The following still remain on my mind...

1) I've heard some people say if I got EPA(ed) - it should have been written on the sheet (which I didn't get) and the cops didn't mention it...does this mean I am safe - it has been over 2 weeks now... still nothing from EPA, does this mean I am ok and no need to take vehicle to the EPA?

2) When I bring my car to VICROADS... can I drive it there (on the back of the sheet, it says ok to drive from and to tester/VICROADS, is this correct as my driving period has expired recently but not my 28 days)?

3) When I bring my car to VICROADS - would they personally come out and have a look at it piece for piece or do they take the WRC for what it's worth and then it's stamped and done- deal? CAn this be done on weekends??

Many thanks everyone!!

Regards,

so you were asked to get a rwc were ya?

yeah you just take the car to vicroads, they'll have a look at the paper and see what you were defected for then they'll tell you to put your car in the inspection bay. they'll come out and check to see if your defects have been fixed then they'll tell ya to take the sticker off and off ya go.

There is no such thing as a "lenient" place these days

VicRoads is strict, people found to be giving lenient RWC instantly have thier license removed, and its happened to a number of places i know.

1) Can be upto 6 weeks for the EPA notice to come in the mail.

2) The notices you have are all very clear on what you have to do. Depends when the car was pinged, the last drive date etc.

But the notice will have all that, if you still dont understand, ring VicRoads.

3) It can only be done during VicRoads office hours, if you dont know what they are. Ring them as they are closed on weekends.

As for the car, they might go over it, they might not. Again, you will need to ring up and confirm this

      Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
