so i got pulled over at 0430 on my way to work for a defect check that made me about 30mins late. which is ok cause my boss is into cars so he understands but holy crap the copper, either first day out of a traffic school or he had little knowlege of cars.

i only run a stocko R32 there is nothing special about it so he must have just recognised the tail lights of something anyway, long story short.

Cop: has this got a turbo?

Me: yes?

Cop: may i see it please?

me: ummm yeah sure its behind that sheild there

Cop: step aside mate i just want to have a look at it

me: umm

30 secs later the copper was asking me if i had any cold water in the car to put on his hand after he attempted to become one with the front pipe. needless to say that was the end of the inspection but i felt bad the fella haha.

got me thinking there must be pretty funny stories going around i would love to hear em!

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
