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.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
