i only got the pod filter secured on a bracket a few weeks ago when i got my turbo put in to avoid gettn defected for it. all the mods on my car are very hidden including the power fc unit. the cop couldnt find anything hence why he defected me for bullsh*t mods.

i am going to make an official complaint, ive got the sheet. I had my mate with me so he can back me up with what happened.

but it's true some cops pull me over to check if the car stolen and then they would usually say 'nice car' or something friendly, but unfortuantly i got an arsehole.

It sucks that Skylines are being targeted, but basically your defectable car got defected, and you're going to complain because they defected you for the wrong things?

Let us know how that goes.

Unfortunatley it is the sad truth that the police can pull you over for no reason and slap a defect on your car.

It does not even have to be defectable it is only in the opinion of the police officer to be defectable.

Everytime we drive our cars on the road we are taking the risk of being defected and especially if you have been defected before and are in the system. :(

It's not about empathy, I feel he is going to end up making the situation worse for himself, rather than better.

Also your contribution since arriving here is far from positive for the skyline community zamels - "OMG MY CAR RATTLEZ AT 260 IZ IT NORMAL?".

like Carl said Elliot, be careful with your words when writing a complaint to the porks.

Most complaint matters of this regard would usually get tossed and put through the shredder without the complaints advocate even taking any action to investigate it. and when you go to chase them up and try and push them into some action desicion making with the complaint, they will reject your request, and just make you line up and go through the system (ie vehicle inspection) like everybody else.

Believe me, i tried mate!

but good luck though.

Anything can happen if things get in the hands of the right or wrong person working within the transport arm of SAPOL.

One of my mates that had been defected a few weeks ago were in the car, he was explaining that an internal wastegate was needed, but the pig said to us if we say anything else he'll book me for something else.

i was coming down milne road toward mcintyre road, he was behind me on milne but decided to follow me then pull me over down the bottom of mcintyre.

i went to the cop shop right after it happened i gota a blank stare from the stupid bitch at the counter, so i just said get me a complaint notice. Im just really pissed coz my car will be off the road for ages while i source stock suspension, airbox, take out power fc, avc-r, turbo....ect.

Don't forget the injectors (and you'll have to source some standard ones cause the standard ecu won't run the 550cc's), some standard suspension etc etc.......

nice empathy, tool

Apparently i have a friend lol. Im aware that my car was defectable, but it is annoying when you put so much money and time into making the car inconspicuous and you get pinned.

im not stupid either im aware that sapol are very closed ranks and that any attempt to attack a police officer would be a one sided affair. i can be tactful while alerting them to the problem

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
