So they do an emmsions test, or just check to see if the cat is hot?

I might just make some metal restricor plates and steel wool and that should quiet her down nicely.

ALso im not sure whether a strut brace is illegal, however i might just take it off so they dont pick on it.

Pleaaaaase dont remind me about regency. nightmare

to pass my windows ALLLL the tint had to come off. (even factory) and to get my exhaust through I had to stuff a shitheap of steel wool in there and make metal plates at intervals through the pipe .  Not to mention all the other parts that had to come off which basically left it a rolling shell... They obviously are not too bright.  How can a 4 inch exhaust make 40 db ? I'll show ya!  I then took a day off work and waited 6.5 hours while they had the nerve to tell me to hurry up.

Regency change the rules practically every week so I would not be too fussed about it guys.

hahaha didn't the steel wool catch on fire as you drove off? bahahahahahaha :bahaha: :bahaha: :bahaha:

Time of the month mel? rofl.

nah just thought it was funny, not being nasty at all chickito

don't worry when they took my car for a test drive at regency, the airbox was in so tight it squished the pipe up too much and when the car hit boost it wasn't gettin enough air, hence, the car was almost bunny hoppping down the road and the regency guy is just looking at me like, umm, what the hell. I'm like " uh yeah it hasn't got much petrol in it"

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
