i wouldnt pay it and take it to court...

184 + 1450kgs PLUS the driver puts u over the 125kw/ton regulations.

take ur car to a weigh bridge and get it weighed... u will find it more than what they "estimate" it as being.

Lol i was at Knox last nite around 9:30 with the NissanSilvia boys and i think the same officer came and tried to get a p-player for drivin a SpecS S15, luckily a lot of us were there so we were able to dispute it.

But it could of turned real ugly coz then he called a TMU marked XR6 turbo (by the way the car is verrrrrry noice !) but we had a chat to the cop explained the diff between SpecS and SpecR and he walked away not issuin any fines and havin a better opinoin of NissanSilvia.

I know there r times when it looks like we get targeted for nothing, but its a tough job guys ! How can they tell the difference between an enthsiast like most of us or a guy in his daddy-paid-for-it import bovvin and rippin patches !!!!!

Cut em some slack we saw a lot of cops in the nite and although they were confrontational at first once u chat to em without aggression, they even had a laugh or two with us !

I wouldn't pay that chop.. thats a pretty bullshit ticket just for them to get more revenue under this current blitz for cash thingo. Like people are saying, with everything in the car it would be over so I would dispute it.

I mean obviously they would have done your car over fully but you're lucky yours is pretty stock. Actually, you never know that EPA could be in the post

Yer, i went past knox yesterday.. lot of ****heads around that area these days. I remember about 2 years ago you would never see a skyline or import.. yesterday i saw 2x R32 in the car park.

if the EPA is reading this post. :headshot: go do some work

The EPA OR POLICE may have the specs of the car and weight...but its not accurate...i could get 50 stock skylines (and weigh them) and they would be within the power to wieght ratios...to prove them wrong...Thoe it $105 bucks not to bad..but money is still money...

Look at the pic I've attached. Its nothing new. Just a pic I found on some nissan site, prolly put together originally by nissan.

Max power 180kw@6400rpm

Weight 1380kg

Power to Weight ratio = 130.435kw per tonne

The law clearly states that a P plate driver shall not drive a vehicle that has a power to weight ratio greater the 125kw per tonne. Power is measured at the engine. Weight is calculated in the vehicles unladen stock standard form (that means COMPLETELY unmodified, no driver, no fluids, no cement or mates in the back).

The power and weight figures would have to come from Nissan if you wanted to contest it. You can weigh your car and put it on a dyno, but it aint gonna help.

You are breaking the law. End of story. You could waste a day in court trying to get out of it, or you can pay the fine. Stop whinging! This shit happens to everyone everyday!!!!

ok seriously i know how bad it feels to be fined? but if your doing something illegal which clearly it is, why

thats ****ing bullshit
thats a pretty bullshit ticket
Geez cops these days must have nothing to farkin do!!
i wouldnt pay it and take it to court...

it seems as though no matter what happens everyone always tries to get out of things. Everyone knows the rules regarding power to weight

125kw per tonne -

The law clearly states that a P plate driver shall not drive a vehicle that has a power to weight ratio greater the 125kw per tonne. Power is measured at the engine.

if your going to drive one of these cars on your p plates these are the things you have to take into account happening

and lastly

and further strengthens my belief that cops target ethnics
what does this quote have to do with a p plater getting fined for doing something illegal.

yes the police do alot of things which are unfare for ego/ power or whatever but when they do something which can be justified very clearly why does everyone jump on their backs? its the rules yes maybe they are unfare but they are there if you dont like it dont drive the car till you are legally allowed! ,

-peace

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
