i would just like to thank the rather kind police man(and woman)

that mannaged to pull me over tonight and yellow sticker my car just to make sure that "my car is the correct height(as it was complied @ that height), my exaust is not to loud(also complied with exaust), to make sure the pedals my car legal (once again), and to make sure my rear wing is "secure".

on the other hand i would like to say GO SOLVE SOME REAL CRIMES AND STOP WASTING YOUR TIME MAKING SURE MY CAR IS LEGAL FOR ME.

well what else can i say i was pulled over tonight for an RBT (random breath test) and the police man had a look around my car (nissan 180sx) only to come to the conclusion that my pedals we not legal he didn't like the look of my gear knob (razo) my exaust was a "little loud" for him and my wing did not look safe

when i informed him that my car came with the pedals, knob, exaust, and that the law behind wings was that it had to be within the cars length and with he suddenly took a disliking to me

walked off to his car and radio'ed another unit to come down and inspect my car (1/2 hour later) the car turns up and tells me that my "wing" could affect the areo dynamics of my car and that for there and my piece of mind i should have a yellow sticker so i can go spend more time/money making sure that my car is clearly legal so here we are slightly pissed off and 1 rather unsightly yellow sticker as a bonus i would like to just end this by saying once again

GO SOLVE SOME REAL CRIMES AND STOP WASTING YOUR TIME MAKING SURE MY CAR IS LEAGLE FOR ME.

had enough of this type of thread been lots before

get your permits and even then they can sticker you

bad luck just go to welshpool lisencing centre ask for reno and if you have permits for your mods they'll take your yellow off for free

if not get your permits and be done with it.

also the areo dynamics of the wing has nothing to do with it. its wheather or not its a safety issue particulaly the end plates.

your gear knob is illegal unless it has the h pattern on it, but most places and cops let it pass, same as the pedals.

the exhaust is on there judgement nothing u can do about it.

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
