Yeap... A pod box makes it legal in most police eyes however if they've had a bad day = defect.

I believe the rule is pod has to be fully enclosed, I figure the pod is enclosed - in the bonnet lol My pod, when I had it was fully enclosed looks cleaner anyway

Yes and if the police are reading this now i say to the two officers with the orange Typhoon. Keep up the good work defecting the morons on George st outside of town hall on Saturday nights... This city needs idiots like them sorted out the way they drive ....

Saying that, I got pulled over once when I left the gym... First thing cop asked me where were my P Plates? I told him I'm a 1/4 of a century old, I'm on my fulls and his tone just changed and all he did was give me a breathe test and off I went...

mine you, I don't have wnker sized rims, nor is my car loud. Good experience with a copper? I think so.

Just wondering...at what inch does 'wanker size' start?

I have had more good experiences with the Police than bad. Though i will cringe if i get pulled over again. Ill explain:

Took a trip to Tassie with the missus. Hired a car. In Tas they dont have signs warning you there are fixed speed cameras.

2 fines with 1 week.However when the first fine was processed in NSW it was double demrits,so i lost 9 points all up.

Then a few months later i had a small accident and copped a Neg driving fine.

So as soon as i get my car back on the rd if the Police pull me over and look under my bonnet + my driving history i will get raped for sure.

Im not a hoon on the rd but he wont know that.

I think ill get a "Ban low performance drivers,not high performance cars" sticker made and put in on my rear window.

I'd say an SAU sticker should be an advantage. We're a comparatively sensible bunch. We probably have an average age 3-4 years older than that of NS which helps. We're highly educated and good looking too.

Thank me for the latter :bunny::D

No he was just wrong.

The laws on that are VERY clear. I have them in the car now. The plate can be wherever it wants to be on the front of the car, but it has to be viewable from a 45 degree angle from the center of the car and 10m back (i think).

Alfa romeos come on the side standard too :bunny:

Was thinking about this thread last night when traveling on William st. I wouldn't have minded some police there to tell off all those who were triple parking (and the street is 3 lanes) to chat to their mates in ridiculously dropped cars that would just go off the road because they don't have any rebound rates. Makes responsible majority of car enthusiasts look bad, making police and society automatically assume anyone with a modified car is like them... Anyways, that's my rant for the day, lol.

On our cars some Police might consider those stickers as a piss take and pull you over anyway.

well piss take it is ,it was a piss take in the mid 90's to on old v8's and just about any car,but its also a piss take taking a highly modified car out in places where you know your going to get picked on !! in all my years driving modified cars and its been 13 years,ive been defected once for over sized rims and on that time he let me off, for low end speeding but he said that he had to give me something...

it all comes down to not being a smart ass when you get pulled over.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
