Some say that Pettett can sense a hidden boost controller in a car from 1 km away!

you fail at Stig style intros. Its "Some say <blah>, and that <blah>, all we know is that he's called <blah>."

And he has been known to use jedi mind tricks to put words in the mouths of offenders

"The injectors are not stock", "The injectors are not stock", "I'm going to have to report you to the EPA"

But seriously, Pettett is a good cop. Be respectful, do the right thing and he will not have a problem with you. I don't have a worry in the world if he pulls me over again.

I would have to agree, he is pretty tough though! He just knows his stuff and you can't trick him. i'm sure he is getting a good laugh out of this tread for sure

Ah I don't think anyone's really having a serious go at him or we'd shut this baby down. It's more a bit of fun. Yeah he's typically quite good in the run in's I had with him.....all except that one time. Perhaps he was hungry or missing his Mummy. Ah well we all have our bitchy days.

I accept that challenge. Autograph will be forthcoming.

not as much of a challenge when you pull up in a Audi :) ... like to see you attempt it in an import!

Some say he can test emissions by sense of smell alone and that he once gave so many defects all the printers in Melbourne ran out of yellow ink

Not bad, i can see this thread turning into more of these posts ^

I heard he defected his toaster because it was too shiny and sat too low to the bench. And that he fined his plumber for running water piping through a load bearing wall in his house. And that he gave his son an R/C car for Christmas but defected it shortly after, denying him his pocket money that week to simulate the thrill of getting a roadworthy.

And you know that ringing sound you hear in your ears when everything is dead quiet and you listen real carefully? That's the sound of him applying stickers to import windscreens...of course this happens so fast and often that it's more like a constant buzz.

errrr i wasn't doing any "style", can't fail at something i wasn't even attempting.. oh but my comment was funnier than yours anyway :)86440247.FOY097Qu.fingers2.gif

haha zing hamish!

some say that pettett can defect a Skyline just by visualising it in his head, and that his badge is made out of the metal of crushed Skylines.

p.s I dare any of you kents to head down to Knox TMU and ask the man for his autograph ;P

i would do it. with a polaroid and everything.

im dead serious

Lol only experience i had with pettett was in 2003/4. Got defected for boost controller and hole cut in chasis for intercooler pipes. Went and got an engineers, looked at the hole and had 0 problems with it. Passed full epa inspection with a gt2540 and a chipped ecu. Too bad its a lot harder these days

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG is has not responded to my emails so far after purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
