yeh.... some cops you get are either out there for a reason or in the rare case for a legit reason. Had a cop in a 4x4 practically run me off the road to pull over while cruising at the speed limit. By the time I pulled over they had already got out of the car and at my door as if I was in American car chase.

Before even asking me for ID they were over the car, and my car is by no means modified. In regards to the gauge from my knowledge they have never been legal on the A pillar. However they can be placed in the front right corner. The idea is that you grab a baskeball (representing your head). If you can hit the gauge then it's a defect. If it's in the top right corner your head can't fit passed the steering wheel and A-frame to hit it. Therefore it's legal (had it questioned, asked regency).

They looked through my engine bay...found a spot of oil and were going to send me to regency. However got away with slightly bold tyres...mind you if you saw them you'd say they didn't even look half used... so go figure, depends on the cop at the time, their mindset and how their day has been.

yerh, the cop that pulled me over that night was a real pain in the arse, he was some hardcore chubby irish accent guy with a baldy head, i guess he was some high rank officer cause he had a trainee partner with him and he knew wat he was talking bout with the stuff i got in my car, i also got some frends dat got dfected with the same guy. wat a bummer

hrmm im not sure mate, doesnt say where he was from, it was either port adelaide or the one on handson road cos i always see that A*** hole around there

the rule with guages is if they are in your line of sight then its a defect. so from the dirvers seat do the guages sit above the dash line, in front of the front windshield.....

yerh i had my gauge on the far right side and i had a full clear with off my windscreen.. i dono wats wrong with the police. somethink was up his bum

hrmm im not sure mate, doesnt say where he was from, it was either port adelaide or the one on handson road cos i always see that A*** hole around there

me and a mate got done by a fat pommy on south rd bp across from regency and i'm pretty sure he's from port adelaide station! i never get picked on by the hanson rd cops though, they know i don't drive like a nut but port adelaide police however, different story

got defected by that guy the other night for not having a tyre placard and for having a standard blow off valve.. He had fair attitude, like when he told me my pod filter was a boost controller, and I corrected him, he got angry and told me he was a traffic cop and he knew what he was talking about...

Yeah, damn those cops that catch you breaking the law :banana:

Obviously the cops have done their homework on whats legal and not on a car.

Do we do our homework on what we should fit to our car (or how to be discrete in fitting it) before coughing up the $ before doing the mod? No, we'd rather have a cry about it on the SAU forum.

The cops are getting smarter ... we're not. Simple.

    • 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
