in answer to what chubbs asked. if you deregister the car cause you dont want to clear the defects yes you still have to pay the fines but no you dont have to clear the defects. but if ever you sell the car to someone else and they try to register it they wont be able too because it will be still noted on the RTA system as have defects. but it would have to pass a blue slipp anyway if it was out of rego long enough.

so it would just be a pain in the arse to get reregistered again.

but yeah use the money saved and buy a tow car.

I thought you had 30 days to clear a canary, where you could still drive the car around? You must have failed the attitude test hard if they red stickered your car for missing a gearshift pattern.

The period you can drive around for is up to the cop Alan. One time myself and chris were being defected at the same time I got 7 days and he got 14.

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
