yeah pretty much on the money there stevie.

As Ruby said earlier the 1st mistake was to lie to the guy. Cop can look in your car in a public place without a warrant if you give him reason to believe you're carrying contraband or a weapon or if you appear to be hiding something (hence the lie)

yeah fair enough i shuoldnt have lied but the main reason he pulled me over was coz of the exhaust being 2 loud so no matter what i was gonna definetly going 2 get a defect, how long is the wait 2 get in2 regency these days??? coz i go overseas for a month in november so i wanna get it sorted before then if it aint gonna cost me shitloads.........

guess im riding my pushbike 2 work 2morrow, thank god its fully carbon fibre and super light n quick

Lock your glovebox and claim you lost the key for it!

A cop once accused me of lying when he said to me my boost gauge was a "rev tacho" and I said "That's a boost gauge" and he said "You better not be lying to me".

And to be honest, I got pulled over in my old 323 once which had a B6T engine conversion. The cop said "Do you have a blow-off valve under that bonnet?" and I said "No officer" and he said "Okay. Have a good night" and left... but I infact did have one :( but it's sprayed Black and under a heap of piping, so he wouldn't of found it.

If you can lie your way out of a defect, why not? Sure, it's being dishonest and all... but if it saves you a defect, then why not?

*waits for the flaming to begin*

Riiiiight. The ignition key locks and unlocks the glovebox Einstein. Didn't think that one thru.

Good on you mate. Go set a good example for all Skyline drivers. :(

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
