Defected in my driveway!!!

Enrico, regarding the exhaust, they will check the Db level and whether or not you have a cat converter. Better put a cat in there or you won't pass the first time through.

[CheekyR32]

Nitrate, dude, they passed me with out a cat.. read my post above..

I think its a case of try your luck..

[NitRaTe]

cheeky, i'm actually not sure if Regency has a set of standards that they go through with every car. I'm just advising based on what happened to my car at Regency.

[EnricoPalazzo]

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.

[Nozila]

i bought my car with a "factory" strut brace on it and if i get defected for it then thats just sad.

[CheekyR32]

Enricco.. yep, I had to unbolt my strut brace at regency.. not a pretty sight with my girlie arms.. i was spewing. (cos I almost broke my arm! lol)

Thats cool Nozila. everyone has regency stories/nightmares/exeriences...

check ya.

Enrico, I have a stock airbox with filter you can borrow - though I thought that pods were legal as long as they are secured properly - better safe than sorry I spose:)

[EnricoPalazzo]

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:

Nah I wouldn't cause if you get caught without a cat there is a hefty fine *i think*

[Guest Miss_Nismo]

[CheekyR32]

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"

[hippy]

aren't u a lawyer cheeky?? go get ur lawyer hat on and make us a book on defects

[CheekyR32]

lol.. not yet hippy.. almost..

I cant do that.. Would be fun tho, wouldn't it.

I'd be like 30 inch rims are legal.. the lower the better!!

The more boost you have means you get to KEEP more demerit points..

So... who wants to vote me into Parliament! ROFL

[Steve]

I will, and while you're there, see if you can get the tax off 98 ron - after all it is the green fuel

[Cubes]

I so wish i was a cop some times

I'd defect all the little arse holes that give us import owners a bad name..

I saw a silvia weaving in and out of traffic today on flagstaff hill road doing around 130kays in a 70 zone.
