*THIS IS MELLY - being lazy again*

Fail! I ALWAYS get pulled over, i've been pulled over about 10 times in the last 12 months. I've been pulled over a couple of times in one day a few times.

Maybe its because you car looks... unfinished. Also the bright paint probably doesn't help.

I've been pulled over once for an RBT an I was the 4th car in a line of 6 so I doubt I was targeted. And before anyone feels the need to say "why would the cops want to pull over a Camry/Magna/Avalon" it would probably be because it has a loud exhaust, big shiney wheels and at the time it was extreemly low (exhaust was about 4cm off the ground)

i've been getting pulled over since before it looked "unfinished" since I got it I have always been pulled over (except when in Gtown where all the police had all seen my car up close because of dads old job anyway) I was pulled over more before it was "unfinished" I just still get pulled over alot. Plus you can't see the front bar from behind anyway. Not that I care about being pulled over except it being a waste of my time, I can't get defected, all they found to defect me for last time was my window not going down and I hadn't rewired my front bar indicators. But thats fixed so there is nothing. All mods are engineered and the rest is stock as a rock.

Didnt you car have giant 20inch chromies on it before it looked "unfinished"? If i was a copper I would pull someone over for having 20inch rims as you can pretty much garantee they are illegal

IMHO, (IMHO = In My Honest Opinion... for those of you that don't know) on the whole there are more unroad-worthy modified holdens/fords out there than there are skylines/supras etc

Anytime i have had to deal with the police has been a pleasure in the act. The thing with Canberra is its small if you have a good record are polite tell them what they want, chances are you wont be harassed regardless of the car you drive/where you drive/what ever time. on the flip side if you have a bad record are arrogant drive something that screams defect me then they will be on you like bears are to picnic baskets and every cop will know you.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
