turbo timers are an instant defect, illegal on sports cars and they're a waste of money. well they can fine you $150 dollars for each defect they find. there is no set time frame you have to "get it to regancy" even if it runs out of rego just get a day permit.

Get an idle emissions test and send in an application to modify your vehicle, they will come back saying you need an emissions test, once you have that you can go to regency to have it inspected and then you will get a nice piece of paper to put in your glove box saying you are A-Ok, if not then you are up to the mercy of the cop.

Actually even with the piece of paper you are up to the mercy of the cop.

You can get defected for your exhaust not looking standard, you can get defected for things that do no even physically exist on your car so if they want to defect you, they will.

Basically if you draw the wrong sort of attention, guaranteed defect no matter the condition of your car.

The whole systems bullshit haha

Just play the game as best you can and don't drive like a dickhead and more often than not you will be fine. I got an application to modify my car with all my mods listed, idle emissions test and keep the inspection record in my glovebox, if your car looks stock, you show them this and don't act like a twat you'll be fine the majority of the time,
