question on defects...

if you get defected like you did...and you then go "well fk this, Im going to derego the car" I imagine you still have to pay the fines etc, but you wouldnt need to clear the defects then?

if not, save yer money from that and buy a tow car :rofl:

I got defected on Saturday, i and plenty of my friends noticed a very big police presence everywhere we drove.

Must have been a huge blitz on.

My defects were minor and will be cleared this week.

Sounds like you got raped Paul :blink:

Im looking to get my whole car engineered (including emissions)

Just for reference: http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/noise/vehiclenoise.htm

Jeez - this is really a worry. Maybe we should start a Defect Station Location / Date & Time sticky thread so we can see if there is a pattern or specific areas they target? Mods - do you think this is a good idea?

It's a real shame as so many of us put serious time and money into our cars and are not the "HOONs" these laws are trying to target.

I saw this setup on Sat night it looked pretty full on they took up the whole carpark. Saw plenty of cops pulling anything modified over in the area. Lucky I was getting my drink on! :P

I'd also like to know this as it might be an option for many people that get done like craked

Sorry to hear bout the car man.

I got pulled to the side of the road the other day by three highway patrols, checked through my whole car looking at everything, we joked around with each saying the three things in life that is gonna get you in trouble is "cars, money and women". He said he was impressed with the car as it was clean, said he was expecting it to be all dirty and "gunky" lol...I was missing a P plate, claimed I was going a bit over the limit, said I needed a engineers certificate for my exhaust and my geer knob was a defect. He said I passed his "attitude" test and he is gonna let me go, told me to have a good day and keep of the gas lol.

The funny thing is since I changed my exhuast and removed my BOV from defect last year, I haven't been stopped by highway patrol since :( Knowing my luck, once I switch back I'll be pulled over the next day

It seems they tend to increase the road presence in the lead up to Christmas

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
