Something needs to be put in place for those that are unfairly defected because a cop got suspicious! Compensation for time and reimbursed any costs!

They couldnt find anything else so they did me on suspected suspension damage....i asked well if i had damaged suspension then how have i been driving on it without a problem.....to which the reply was well regency can deal with it now....i mean seriously WTF

i was there trying to argue my point to the officer in charge....but i had a bad feeling that he had made up his mind as he pulled me over to defect me....i was suprised as they could frankly just abuse their power....if you cannot find something defectable then let me go....dont slap on a canary for suspecting i have a defect....its like me (being a cop) taking u into custody for suspected robbery/murder/rape/whatever.....its not right....then how come they are allowed to defect vehicle on suspicion

took a ford escape thru today (6k ebay 2days ago lol)

was shittn myself as Id just got back from driving it back from melbourne and hadnt taken off the damaged stone guard, nor checked for any leaks/damages

went all over the car and gave it a thumbs up.

wow, thank christ thats over with. all rego'd now (was running on a vicroads unrego'd permit)

if it was a turbo import I reckon they woulda done it for worn bushes and whatnot, surely (98000kms)

I was gonna ask the officer what would happen if he defected me for having a BOV but he couldnt find one, but seeing as he let me go i didnt wanna push it. i would make he drive with me to regency and hav them look for one with him there lol

yeah a mate of mine bought a s15 from brissy and he went for his id check (check vin n engine number), which is all u need to register it here, but as soon as they saw it was an import made him do a full road worthy inspection, gave him shit for stuff like a loose battery clamp. the worst thing is u cant argue with them cos u have to go back there to get it cleared.

when i go tmy 34 from Vic 3 years ago, they checked all over her, but the only thing they picked on was the fact that the spare tyre didnt have 80km/h on it :) but then she was stock as a rock, but cause the spare tyre didnt have the km/h on it they started to make it very hard for my compliance guy :P

Could always try what a guy did a few years back to a bank. If they find nothing wrong, send them an invoice for your time and inconvienience and any other cost involved.

lol suspicion of carrying a defectable item is good enough for them to send you to regency i mean like WTF is wrong with people.....yet the popo were going to spend some big $$ in educating the force personel as to how to identify a defectable item etc.....innocent till proven guilty...i think NOT

thats pretty crap how they can just 'suspect' things..

thats like saying "anyone with a stanly knife is most probably emo" or anyone with a internet connection "hacks into banks" or "anyone with a plane ticket is a terrorist" or even "anyone visiting the doctors most probably have swine flew"

hate it how people put everyone in the same boat.

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/

      Blue slip

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.

      Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.

      Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.

      Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
