I'm the Semi New owner of a 32 GTS-4 and have had the honour of my first defect which was...

1. Too Low

2. BOV

3. Steering Wheel

4. Gauges in A-Pillar

Now i had no problem remove BOV, Jack it Up (TEINs), Take Off Gauges and Leave My Steering Wheel cos it was all ok (tried tellin the turd on the bike that (adelaide guy)).

Now when i went to get it taken off the bullcrap RTA boys up in this hole of a town port augusta, i thought hey these boys won't know a thing, but hell did they bend me over.....

i have TEIN HA's done me for that, Boost Controler, Timer, No Cat on me Zust therefore making it too loud as well, Need a Full emissions report!

Now i've called MORPOWA which is where i get my work done and Simon(Mr 10sec EVOIII) told me that its all good and he passed wid his HA's on and so did Denzo now wot is the go with this can someone help me out?

Will they pass me or won't they with HA or should i invest in a pair of standard Suspension and Zust for future trouble like this?

And is their such thing as gettin a Boost Controller Engineered?

What hippy said.

That's the thing that really shits me. No consistency what so ever. Whatsisnames passed with pillar guage, but they made him remove his ADR approved momo steering wheel.

These pricks really need to sort their shit out - there needs to be some accountability - they represent the govt and the law, yet they seem to have no bloody idea.

God I wish I knew what could be done.

Regarding the Cat i've heard $5000, $10,000 and even $40,000!!!!

But hey have if you have heard a 32 scream at about 6500-7000rpm with no Cat then its kinda worth the risk ay cos o the sound plus the RTA guy said nothing about a fine or anything like that just said i need one that works etc. :rolleyes:....

But you guys that are out there in the know should know how JMS are helping me out hehe :rofl:

So yeah should be back on the road within a week but yeah it does shit me how there is no consistancy too. And also the cops gettin you for stuff they had no knowledge about (i had to explain to the Bacon Bikie wot a BOV was for etc.)

But as i was sayin i knew it was goin to happen and there is no way i'm going to "Lock or Weld Height Adjustable to Prevent Lowering Below Minimum Ride Height" :shake:

Any how is there any one out there that would like to hook up for a cruise (small group) with me and me mate wid a 33 M-Spec next time we in adelaide just drop me a MSG or mail....

Guest wilco

This is exactly the problem I have with cops, complete and utter inconsistency. If the guy next to me got booked for the shit I get booked for, I wouldn't care. I see ppl run red lights every day, on my way to work I sit around the spoeed limit, maybe only 5 over, and ppl cruise past me doing 20+ over, but it seems they just merrily go on their way.

I haven't been booked by a chick, but the reeceptionist at work has a poxy Toyota Echo with little fog lights in the front bar, they are blue in colour, and she was pulled over for having them turned on, the male cop said, take them off, they are illegal, and the female cop pulled out her book to give her a icket, and defect the Echo... the male cop openly said to her, "What are you doing?", they had a private chat and then let the Echo go on it's way home.

Sad sad sad

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
