Just been reading through several pages of this sa defect topic. Being defected myself, fully deserving the defects as ALL defects were fair....sorta. I have only been pulled over once in my skyline, had my bonnet popped, stock, boost controller, not connected, couldn't find my license, fined. lol

Anyway just wondering if anyone has ever sued a cop because they had targeted the driver? IE the Scottish cop who targets skylines etc? Does any one reackon that they would have a chance suing a cop for targeting or discriminating a certain driver? ie p plater, skyline driver etc?

cheers Tyrone

Also SAPOLs new motto "to protect and defect!"

One does not need their licence to be on them, provided it is paid and up to date. Generally you have 7 days to present a licence to a police station if you dont have it on you,.... which is more than fair...

Cant see them fining you for this, as there are guidelines on how to deal with licence breaches... wanna tell us what they really got you for?

lol, to be very honest, you have a 1% chance of winning that suit. How could you possibly prove they target import drivers?

Yes i am on my P's lol

Nah he pulled me over for not having rear P plate visable, asked me to show him license and i could produce it,because I didn't have it. Apprently you can lose your P's if you don't have it. My horn didn't work , he was gonna defect me, and fine me for p plate and license but I talked him down to just the failure to carry provisional license.

I rang the expiation notice branch to see if I would lose my license but according to the guy if I had also been fined for breach of P's I would have lost it.

Still haven't been defect in the skyline yet YAY! Probably because I haven't driven it since that AFM broke.

Hey all,

I got done on sat night, cop was a complete ass despite i was being polite and respectful to him. anywhos here its goes got pulled over down gouger, cop check alcho-breath tested me, i was in clear. then asked year of my car etc was a 98 gtt. i got done for HID lights, they were like 5000k rating so fair enough. I said nissan made then standard from factory and his like no they didnt thus it is illigal.. (im like wtf in my head). i even pointed out the XENON on my head lights.

i could tell he stuttered when i said that, he had a rookie next time him as i could tell as he was showing teaching him. The manner of which he spoke to me was pretty rude.

i got done for TINT being 18%, HID, Pod not securly mounted. Ok all is fair, but what i dont understand is why i have to go to "regency" and not a simple police check. because it is not rocket science to tell a car has HIDS or not and they can test if the TINT is legal n see if pod is mounted properly with brackets ect? Could i call up the police station and ask this or no point? police station check = approx $40 whereas regency = $143? on my green sheet, he selected it as a MINOR defect yet it has to be checked at VEHICLE INSPECTION STATION..

Could you guys share some light, as this is my first time defected. what a headmess ==

anywhos i over heard the older cop saying keep your eyes out for skylines tonight etc to his rookie. bald old tall cop guy with glasses.

cheers

All R34 HID lights were (or should have been) modified at compliance, including the removal of the HID hardware. Having a HID kit in a 34 in Aus is illegal.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By hardsteppa · Posted

      Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.

      gauge needle removal

      By JC71 · Posted

      I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.

      Ok...its taking me long enough to finally do this.  Feck financial security...heart disease will get me soon enough anyway So welcome to the garage..."Clem" Belsil80 has been running a 370Z in Super TT series. So after entering with him in last years Winton 300 i figured I  need my own car. Seems SAU Vic race cars need to be yellow....{tick} Reckon with enough motor i will be able to make up for the lack of talent and stay ahead of the 370Z... but the LS powered S13 and E36s are a ways up the road Aim is to have a car that doesnt stop or turn but has a bit of shed built motor with jam...maybe some cream  First step is getting this ex drift car log booked I am keeping faithful silver car. As the road-club car gets upgrades the race car wil get the sloppy seconds

      Assuming that they will come off without damage at all.... i would have thought just pull straight up off the spindle with a something or other than can reach underneath. Have you searched for youtube vids of people doing similar on R34s or any other Nissan from the same vintage? They should be the same technique, in all likelihhood.

      Wheel refurb?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Keeping in mind that sandblasting is really aggressive on softer metals like cast alloy, and you can do damage that you might regret. For trash wheels, not a problem. For wheels with value/scarcity issues, etc.... perhaps a less aggressive media is a better choice?
