how bout all those trucks, old vans and bombs with black puffin smoke comin out of their exhaust... you don't see cops defecting them... and how bout cars with busted brake, tail or head lights... see heaps of those, in fact I nearly merged into a stupid Lancer on my way home just then cause his front lights were busted, only one parker was working... lucky i triple checked my blind spot and noticed a dark shadow... I was about to yell at him as I passed but his windows were closed.

TRUE TRUE TRUE!!!

i got caught doing a burn out in kings cross a while back, got my ticket and also got defected for being to low, i had standard suspension, a week later i took it in to the rta at botany, because they mayed me do a full inspection, i drove into the rta paid the fee, went to the pits section they took my defect notice and my paid receipt, waited 10mins they called me around, drove in they checked my ride height, the inspector then told me to pop the bonnet, got some numbers down from the plates and signed the papers and told me to go have a nice day everything is fine, a week or two later i get pulled over for nothing and get defected again, this time for a whole lot of things, to low, exhaust to loud, gauges, air filter, bov, front bumper loose, and gives me two days to get an inspection otherwise i cant drive, i go back to botany rta they say its fine u can go, have a nice day,

ps. i took the gauges out

P's attract attention.... And imports attract even more..... Its insane, and in my area, southwest and sutherland shire, its getting worse by the month.... If gets any worse over the next few years, I'm moving to Tasmania.... I don't see the cops getting any better... I'v removed my P Plates for the last 3 months, and haven't had a single "random" breath test, or as much as a glimps from a cop....but when i had the P's on, I had 12 "random" breath tests in 6 months..... Not to mention the "you were speeding" attempts from an Ashfield Highway Patrol Officer Number 9, who told me I was doing 130 on the M5... he pulled me over doing 100, legally, and told me i was doing 130, to my repeat answer, "I was doing 100 from King Georges Road", until he gave up, and followed me home... all the way from Belmore road to Menai... I even did a Maccas drive thru at Padstow.... Persistant bastard, still got nothing...

By the way, if anyone ever gets the chance to, tell a cop he has 2 tail lights out at the traffic lights..... They like to tell you that THEY enforce the rules, and you don't..... Commondore cop cars ALWAYS have a light out....

S of S

funny u say that, my friend used to work at Holden in Artarmon, they services a lot of cop cars, and they say that every time a cop car leaves the service centre they leave them with a defect because if the cop car has a defect they carn't book you. eg. my friend over took a cop doing 80 in a 60 zone and when he got pulled over he said "officer u have a head light out" and the oficer knew what he meant and said slow down and let him off.... i wouldn't recomend testing this tho, my friend has since lost his license

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
