sounds like what happened to me last time

Once the initial raping has been carried out; If you have a list the next time you go there they will only check whats on the list.

A good question for officer Neil.

A bit like when I filed for divorce. The Magistrates Court kept sending the application back with minor edits all the time. Even made an appointment, went in and sat down with one of the admin people. Sure enough, a week later my application turned up in the mail yet again for more amendments. Grrr. They had to find one item at a time. 9 months (since the initial lodgement), 2 adjourned hearings, and more than 8 submissions later ... I'm finally divorced.

Reasons for returned divorce application ranged from:

- mispelt surname (which it wasn't, I know how to spell my own surname idiots)

- witness signature not identified as meeting requirements (it was a Proclaimed Police Officer idiots)

- affidavit of notice served not correctly filled (it was according to their first instructions)

- application missing pages, must resubmit with missing pages (pages 5 and 6 were removed by them because the ex and I had no kids to declare) Duh!

- affidavit of notice served in person not correctly served (did not serve to ex-wife - she authorised it to be served to a third party idiots)

- cheque for fee not enclosed (umm, yes it was, try again!)

- affidavit of notice served via mail (one tiny little boxed was not ticked - could have advised me earlier)

There must be some real bright sparks working in the Courts

Fail.

the car is almost ready for regency

stock suspension drives like a freaking boat...quite scary to be honest

[Turbz_13]

i got done for tyres. all 4 had worn the inside edge out unknowingly!?!?! plus they were borrowed tyres while mine get re-rolled. the cops were at strath this morning(big set up like 5-10 bikes, had a r33 pulled over on the opposite side and were pulling everyone over inc bikes). they were good, open and honest. not attitude at all. told me things to make sure i check before i in for my inspection.

4 years and first actual run in with them.

Update, got it cleared yesturday night after work. so tis all good again

[Krishy]

Booked my revisit for Thursday at 3:40. Gonna take it to the cop shop so I can atleast drive it. If I go down there with a hi-flow cat and its loud, will they defect me for it? Or will they just put it on the hoist and check off the stuff I failed for the first time? This baffle plate cannot be good for this car, its so slow the turbo barely spools.

how did u go m8? ...i failed 

ride height was apparently too low even tho its stock and i passed with exactly same suspension setup 2 months ago... then apparently blue globes are illegal - wtf... and a little piece of rubber that goes onto engine mount had a small crack on it...

i know i shouldnt, but i lost my temper and told the guy that it all bs... he also wanted to defect me for not having all 4 screws in my front number plate, but i got so pissed off at him that he asked for second opinion and eventually let it go...

i swear regency is fkn tough now...

sorry mate, didnt have much time to talk to u there... i was late coz i got locked in my own backyard lol

Yeah, they are getting really really picky. I think everyone should really try to avoid having over the top mods on their car, Regency has just gotten that bit more stricter resulting in $1,000's to just get the car there only to fail it again.

Suspension tends sags overtime - it may of barely passed last time because the guy feels generous - did you measure it at each corner and was within the legal height?
