Well it's tomorrow. Theres been a fair bit of stuff going on with this. Long story short I should only be looking at a fine now, a max of $2000 but more likely $100 (?) + $80ish for having it at the stage where the police brief was made. Most importantly I should not be getting any demerit points. I really couldn't give a rats ass about money so it's fine by me. It'll still be my first defect offence and next time i'll get my car taken for the 48hours. Bassically If I continue with it to trial they want to change the charge to something which will have a worse outcome for me should I lose.

I guess if your going to get a new shim for your diff be aware you may be ass raped by the po-po unless it is exactly the same thickness as factory :P I also guess your shim will never be allowed to wear out! Lets make them out of diamonds or something.

I respect your decision to give in at this point but I really wish someone would go all the way, and prove them wrong for once.

It seems they can just postpone and postpone and keep throwing offers at you depending on how good your case is.

Sounds like that crappy tv show 'deal or no deal'

$300 fine and most importantly 0 points. I'm keeping my licence :P

The judge said I didn't seem happy about it when the police prosicutions read out the court brief so I did get to say it was a load of shit(not in those words). Probably didn't help. But just hearing the court brief, the way the cop who raped me worded what happened and a couple lies from it pissed me off.

I just read this whole thread start to finish.

It is NOT right the shit cops get away with. Guilty until proven innocent hey...(along with plenty of $$$) It just makes my blood boil.

The amount of crap I have seen cops do (speeding, spinning wheels on take of without lights or sirens in a built up area, not using indicators...the list goes on) and they have the hide to pick on people solely for the kind of car they drive.

I just wish they would spend more time and effort getting the truly unsafe heaps of s#!t off the road instead of just being cocks.

You know how they have that 'report a smokey vehicle' thing? I once reported a cop car which had heaps of black smoke coming out the exhaust :( It was quite amusing.

Nice work!!!!!!

I'm sure there are plenty of us out there with only 1 point to spare, so you have made us all proud.

Good to see a Skyline driver.. ahh win.. for lack of a better term.

I just read this thread start to finish took a bit of reading.. and I agree, there is no way I would drive an excel they just so happen to be the worst car in the world. lol. I have a 32, and I also have an old N13 pulsar, it has bald tyres on the back purely because one went flat on the way home once, and I dont drive it much anymore, but if I go around a roundabot it squeels like a locka. I would laugh real hard if some stupid cop wrote me a ticket for a locka. Pretty sure, the judge might even laugh. Wouldnt need evidence :)

Aanyways... good to se you are now stress free...

Take it easy.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
