driving without a gearknob COULD be dangerous and there is no proof as to how many days you were driving without one and when you were getting a new one...

that's not in question however, what the issue here is the fact that they gave you a sticker for things you've already had inspected a few days beforehand and that's all on the paperwork you can provide...

if you take it to the pits and have the same guys inspect it they're going to think those officers were just arseholes, fight it man... just wait on your response...

also depends how many days you have leftover on your sticker, the last one i had i only had 8 days to rectify all my problems and i only JUST got it ready...

let us know what happens dude but i'm sure you would anyway

Im gonna have to go ahead and say that your not gonna get off.

Yes you did just get it inspected, but by driving while your car was unroadworthy (missing gearknob) you had to know that you'd get another canary if you were pulled over. I think its purely bad luck on your part.

Granted the fact that the new sticker contains things covered in the original one seems stupid, but the missing gear knob is a legitimate reason for a yellow.

Im not saying that its illigitimate, however it is not right.

The law is suppose to represent right and wrong (people often forget that) and this simply does not

I agree dude seriously, im in a similar situation.

Driving my car around with two quite bald tyres as i bought it like that. I have an appointment to get new tyres tomorrow arvo but if i get pulled over in the morning tomorrow I'll no doubt get a sticker.

The timing of when you got pulled over sucks but thems the breaks.

Don't listen to them!

Fight it all the way~ !!

F*cking cops.

If it was me, i would be doing the same as you.

Whether it was legitament to give you a yellow sticker for a gear knob is not really the question.

Its the fact that he just took of his yellow a few days ago! You would of thought they would of given him a break and just let him go. Especially in light he had his car broken into... which i would assume he filed a police report, so he would have proof there.

Some people are just real assh*les.

Anyway, i better start studying for my last exam for my BACHELOR DEGREE!! which is @ 1pm today.

ahhhhh.

lol dude, give the Police Force a break, they divide into different units and i'm sure you know that, generally only Traffic Officers pull over cars unless you do something super stupid (for example, i have posted a thread up here once before, i got pulled over by TRG in their 4WD for doing 50km/h+) and there was nothing they could've done about it and they let me off... i gave a pretty good reason though...

anyway, what i'm saying is that if all the Police Officers were out catching robbers and stuff there would be none that would catch and yellow sticker 'hoons' and rightfully so ie. guys that do burnouts in suburban streets etc. and vice versa...

anyway, dude... fight it and see how you go, worth a shot man and you've got nothing to lose

P.S: i thought Murdoch was safe lol

If it all doesnt work out, wait till you have scrathes or something you need fixing at the front of ya car, sit up a coppers ass, wait till he brakes, then drive right into him... nothing better than seeing a cop car all ding'd up... and even better, they will have to pay for the damage...

Just an idea! :P

No, they'll do you for dangerous driving for braking heavily and you'll still have to pay.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
