and if there not on here looking?? the gonna just pull over more cars anyways! so its loss loss!!! cop it sweat.. as its been said... u modify ur car expect to get defected! its the risk u take!!

seriously think about how many people are in adelaide that have imports or other modified cars they dont come on here read all the crap and then take down plates then go on a hunt for you they do actually have a job to do and they wouldnt remember all of our plates and when they are driving around say oh i remember that plate that car has this and that on it

i dont really care if my plates are shown

It happened to some dude on ns who put a twin turbo vg30 in his s13 and there were photos of it with numberplates on ns and he got a letter in the post saying that his rego was suspended unless he took the car for an inspection at regency.

It's very true about that defect letters in the mail.

Ages ago I told a new guy on here to cover his numberplate in his pics he posted up - I got flamed for it. Go figure.

Meh I've had my custom plates for 6 months now, never had >any< hassles from the police. I got pulled over once for bretho/licence check when I had my standard SA plates but police have been good to me. Maybe they have a computer system and it says 'Dohmar is a legend' and they just say 'cool' and continue on their way...

Even cruising in a loud gear with my sub up a bit last nite, cops let me go past. They ignored me when I went past a random drug test in my suburb on fri too so who knows...

that said, my car is mostly stock so I dont attract attention, and I dont rev it hard like a twit... since I got jack to install my sub last nite, I've only been on a couple rides so we'll see how much a sub attracts them. And whether theyre prejudiced against any certain genre of music, be it rap (weed smokers), dance (eccy and acid trippers), heavy metal (alcoholics) or opera (winos).... we shall see!

-D

He was a pom if that helps.....

Probs not but yeah, I'm pretty sure the cop was from Gawler, ill find out more info.

i know that cop, he defected my old car and was a prick about it, most guys in gawler know him as a wanker,

always gives local boys a hard time for doing nothing in particular wrong (not car related btw)

gee, an english policeman? how rare.... there was a large number of "bobby's" that came over from england a while ago due to a recruit shortage, so theres probably more pommie cops than you think

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
