On the way to work this morning and dandenong TMU are pulling over cars, letting most through until yes you guessed it the saw me :banana:

so the copper is looking under my car for what i dont know, then asks me to pop the hood. after a few mins of looking he asks me where is my bov? i dont have 1 sir

then he proceeds to keep looking, after a few more mins he tells me i need to put the stock air box back on (granted) as i have a cooler.

in the end i get a defect for a small crack on the front right indicator, my hand brake witch had 7 clicks and not the 6 allowed and for the air box,

so all in all it wasnt to bad :banana:

dont worry bout it.... with an attitude to life like that, you KNOW while he was defecting you his wife was getting plowed like a $2 hooker in a room of british backpackers

The handbreak is total bull shit!!!... ...There are plenty of cars out there that are setup with way more than 7 clicks... ...If I really really try... ...I could get more than 10 clicks out of it... ...it engages after two clicks and the rest is all tension in the cable... ...And anyway... ...You're meant to push the button in when you put the handbreak on and then release the button once it goes tight... ...If you're using your handbreak correctly you'll never hear the clicks...

My dad's car has an old slide hand break and it would have about 15 clicks on it... ...Good luck giving him a ticket for that...

A small crack in the indicator is crap too... ...Unless "white" light can come out... ...There are so many crappy cars driving around with sun faded tail lights and indicators that don't get defects it does my head in...

Your GTS-t will have a BOV... ...but most likely the stock one... ...Which doesn't vent to air...

He has got you with the airbox as you said... ...But I wouldn't stand for the other things... ...I keep my car stock because I use it for work and I've been pulled over a few times now and have been told that I've got things on my car which I clearly don't...

He was mainly pinging the guy for the airbox. Don't they need 3 issues to write you a ticket?

The other two are just rubbish like bent license plate, etc.

Fix up the obvious and they'll ignore the rest.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
