i love cops,

ive changed just about every thing on my 33 from body to engine, turbo to seat belts every thing is after market and it is fully engineered and ligit.

however i still got defected for the pod filter even tho it was in a fully sealed after market box. and over the whole car he could only get me for being 5mm (yes 5mm) to low where my exhuast goes under the rear axle. like seriously WTF

i was polite as you would always be and didnt hide anything, but super cop along the Northen Road defected me and sent me to the pits.

Just out of interest, what is the process here in NSW after you get defected? Who can clear your car and how much does it cost? How much can you drive the car before you get cleared?

Ps- think it might be time to hide my pod!

my next defect is gonna be for not having a H pattern on my gearknob... i'm sure that poses a clear and present threat to everyone's well being

LOL i have been defected for that.

it was a very stupid defect if you ask me. they couldn't even properly explain why it was a defect. they just said that it needed to be there. :(

this is what happened:

- got defected for exhaust and pod in a box

- had to hunt around for a replacement exhaust and box

- got it fitted

- showed up at AUVIS mech. who inspected it (paid $51)

- passed paperwork to RTA

- pay $74 fine

excepting the fine, it has to be done within 7 days... it's been two weeks for me so far

Yeah. Let's be tough on "hoons" who have a pod filter, but we won't chase after people who skim credit card details at an ATM and use them fraudelently, WHEN I'VE DONE ALL THE DAMN INVESTIGATIVE WORK AND GOTTEN NAMES AND NUMBERS FOR YOU TO RING AND THEY HAVE AN ADDRESS.

GG.

this is the thing... i knew what the f**k I was doing... i knew this easiest and cheapest place to get a replacement box and exhaust (I got one off here and I get a complete Jap exhaust cheap)... and I have a 9-5 job like everyone else... and it STILL took me close onto 2 weeks to get it done...

f**ks me how ya supposed to do it in 7 days... i called around a few exhaust shops too and they are largely time wasters... it was easier just to get my mechanic to do a complete swap

I know full well these cops are just out to be complete dicks and they seem to love booking people for doing 80 in a 70 zone on an onramp... it's all wasted money and time...

i think i said i was pulled over for an RBT... at 7.30 in the morning... going to work

      Grind them off, drill them out. Repair any rust on the other side. Start again from scratch.

      Power steering pump r32

      Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on

      You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump.

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By DatsunBanana · Posted

      Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.
