hey all as per topic title, can the nsw police force bring up details of previous defects for our cars in their police car computer thingy? or do they just bring up offences? i dont know someone explain it to me, the other night i got pulled over again and the copper asked me has someone issued me a warning for the exhaust being too big i said yeah i got a defect for it (although i had cleared it already) and said they have given me 14 days since last thursday to fix it, and he said thanks see you later, do i assume from this that they are unable to bring up defect records?

still then i dont get how this guy let me off with my exhaust.... LOL its back to my trust item, he even asked me did u get a warning etc LOL its kinda lucky, note to self avoid all major roads.... except the m5 after 11pm

Police officers are not there to defect people, they are there to enforce the law and work with the community, let's just say this coppa

did the right thing and probably had other important things to worry about.

Tell that to the cops who pull me over for no apparent reason to defect me because i drive a skyline.

They tend to do that if you drives an import, it might be a junior coppa, where he/she just came out the academy still a bit hot headed and follows everything by the book.

+ I don't know what cops are like in Melbourne, they might have different discretion regarding imports.

Cops are tops!

I have no problem with the police, they're just doing they're job, and I don't get hassled much...

It's the laws I have a problem with... Half of them are like they're written by a work experience kid...

Pretty much the smartest thing you've said the whole year :P

i find that if your nice they generally dont give u too hard a time... maybe ask them a quesiton bout there HWY car... I did and it got me out a defect :down:

Pretty much the smartest thing you've said the whole year :D
+1 It was really smart.

Yeah, pretty funny coming from my mouth, 2 days after being defected huh :bunny:

But yeah, I can be pretty clever when I'm sober :down:

my bro is a cop and i asked him this same question the other day

the deffects stay on the system for up to 2 months i think he said and they will only remain on the system if they are real serious defects

Ahhh... good to know :down:

If it's alright with your brother, I may have some other questions for him too later on, I'm having trouble finding actual wording of certain laws...

What area of law enforcement does he work in?

he's a constable and he also does work in sumthing called a tag team or sum crap like that

haha yeh its all good, just hit me up with wot ever you wana know n ill see wot i can do for you, im constantly asking him about these types of questions

I just don't understand why people keep complaining about getting pulled over for nothing.

I've had over 15 cars with 90% of them turbos.

3 of them skylines.

a 200sx.

2 Liberty RS Turbo's with exhaust louder than most skylines can ever muster up.

Never ONCE have I been pulled over for anything other than RBT.

NSW or QLD.

Never.

they don't do it for no reason.

depends on the night there having too. iv had cops that just give me a breath test and off they go but i also have had a cop that was pissed off and was being rude to me from the get go. i was nice and polite and got red stickered my for a set of 18s and nothing else.

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
