Hey guys, just wanted to share a little incident that happend to me while up in rye with my cousin n friends. 2 nights ago went to sorento to go to this club, later on i decided i wanted to drink so i asked my mate if he could follow me back to the house in rosebud to drop off my car and get a ride back with him, so we left...we got stoped at a booze bus..all was good got tested and left no questions asked...then as we are passing rye i saw a tmu parked in a bus stop..and as a passed him i saw his headlights turn on and he pulled in onto the road and at that point i knew he was coming for me..anyways i got pulled over (im on green p's, friend was on red p's driving a old commodore) him and his partner get out of the car and he goes to me, "turbo is it" i go yeah its turbo, then he says are you ment to be driving a turbo and i go to him yeah i got my p's before the new laws came in. then he says well isnt this a rb25 and its too powerful? i tell him nah its heavier then usual because its a limited edition skyline, and i show him the rego sticker where it says Tare 1530kg and then his like yeah those stickers are always inaccurate, then i say too him well check out my weighbridge papers it says 1540kg and his like oh ok fair enough then good work on keeping those papers with you ( even thou i chucked in about 150kg worth of weights when i went) then he tells me to pop the bonnet, he spots the after market bov and his like ohh you have a after market bov do you..im like ohh really i thought that was stock because when i bought the car the guy said its all stock (obviously i knew it wasnt coz i put it in myself) then his like you also have an after market intercooler..so therefore your car is no longer the stock performance...in the end he said "im going to go back to the station and do some research if you mod you car does it come under high powerd vechile. but whats weird is in the end i didnt even cop a defect notice....and i also had a blitz boost controller that stood out like dogs balls..

Even smarter starting a thread on a forum, which the police are well known to read, and admitting in your posts to lying to the officers face and falsifying information.

LOL, imagine the look on his face when the epa letter also includes a print out of his post, now that would be funny.

yer i kno that would be hiliarious lol...because he didnt mention anything about recieving a epa. just a fine if anything. so i guess it would be really funny if i did :P

Hang on, you are driving a car over power-weight, lied to say it isn't over power to weight, now are gloating on a forum about it? We all know rego sticker numbers are lies.

Rye TMU are rather nice, Been RBT'd a couple of times before when staying down there.

does not matter what he said, if he see's this the easiest thing he can do is report you to the epa for blowing smoke and then you need a full epa test no questions asked.

I think you won't get an EPA...although the BOV is consider as an EPA issue...he did not mention anything about an EPA, so the likelihood of you copping an EPA is low. You were lucky...I think you were polite and acted nicely so he let you off the hook.

Just sit tight for another 3-4 weeks...if you don't get anything before Christmas, you're off the hook!

yeh it paints a good picture of us...

A good pub story mate but that's probably where it should stay. The others are right about posting the finer details up not being a good idea. You'll be lucky if you don't get an EPA in the mail...the cop might have liked you / your story and with any luck you'll get off. But a friend of mine got pulled over by a cop who said his exhaust was too loud and to change it...thought he had gotten off with a warning, but no, EPA in the mail. I got a fine for crossing double lines in the mail because the officer couldn't be bothered writing it out on the spot.

I agree with above posts...

Getting away with it is one thing, but i really dislike gloating....especially when its from the youngens. No offence, but it does create a bad sterotype.

P.S: You dont need to be/have been pulled over to receive an EPA in the mail... :nyaanyaa:

So you falsified evidence relating to your car to make it legal for you to drive and then post that information on a public forum along with all the information required to identify you should someone from the police read this? You might want to edit your original post mate...

You still might get the EPA notice in the mail mate. I got done about 2 months back. Full defect. A month and a half later the EPA notice came in the mail. Full emmision and noise test. If they do you for the boost controller and BOV then you will pretty much have to go back to stock as they check everything. It dont matter if you are polite or not. If they are not having a good day then they will do you no matter what. Did the cop take any photos??

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
