Could you ask the police to put it in writing and sign on it as a legal statement?

or they'd tell u to f*k off?

Just ask what part of the road traffic standards, regulations or act was amended and say that you don't remember seeing it when you updated your folder at home last week. They'll make them shut up if they are bullshitting you.

Guys seriously if a cop starts to say something that your pretty sure is shit tell him your going to start recording the conversation and they will leave you alone instantly trust me it works....

if they do not want you to record them then let them know you will not speak with them until a third party turns up to verify the conversation, i get the old man to come down :P

it is this sort of lies yes lies not mis-informed lies (think i made my point) that gives them the bad repoutation and also gives us unjust yellows.

Maybe he knows stock Skyline rim sizes and how much bigger you were allowed to go.

If you are reading this and thought that the cop meant 19" rims and up for any vehicle are now being banned.. you are a f**king idiot.

I don't think you're allowing cops any credit. All the cops I've come across have been great guys and I get tired of people whinging and slagging them off on forums. You mod your car illegally/you break the law, you get done. Don't come on here and bitch about it.

PS calm down a little and dont attack members until you know your right.. the first post has a V35 in his profile so 18's stock...

And I wasn't saying anything about the cop being right/wrong about Paul's V35. It appears that people are reading this and thinking that they are banning 19"+ rims from all vehicles. This, obviously, is not the case.

Yeah i get it about people slagging off cops. and i 100% agree with you on having illegal mods and breaking the law... i too am actually friends with 2 officers and even they cannot stand a lot of the s**t the power humgry ones say and do, i am all for doing the right thing, but it means they have to know the law too which the officer in this instance obviously did not.

I got told i can't have 19" rims or higher. I said "what?" The cop says no car is now aloud to have anything larger then 18's since 4 weeks ago.

If you are reading this and thought that the cop meant 19" rims and up for any vehicle are now being banned.. you are a f**king idiot.

Do you even read the OP???

the cop said straight out that NO car can have anything larger then 18's......

and i agree on calling other members a "f*cking idiot" is not really acceptable even if your just saying it generally and not directly at any one...

Well seeing as you started two threads on the same subject:
You've been duped by a cop who "thinks" he can pull one over you. Ahh country cops, so "up with the times".

We are all governed by a national ruling NCOP14 http://www.infrastructure.gov.au/roads/veh...ng_3Feb2006.pdf

In summary we can not increase tyre width by more than 30% over stock (OEM) or placard.

So Front can go from 225 out to max 292 (rounded to nearest avail size 285)

Rear can go from 245 out to 318 ( or 315 next avail size).

You can have any size Ø rim as long as you maintain aspect ratio and the overall diameter of the tyre is not more than 15mm larger than stock.

Also the tyres must be load rated to suit.

I suggest you print it out, highlight the parts pertinent and keep it with you and if he hassles you again, show him the error of his ways, then bend him over and shove it up his a**.

Hallelujah brudda.................

The link there doesn't work.

Also, how does this effect people getting ridiculously larger width wheels and stretching smaller tyres onto them? 215s on a 10 inch rim are legal under this, or is there more to it than that?

If you kept reading further down the page you wold have seen a new link and that will also tell you tyre size min/max to rim size

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
