Wouldn't normally create a thread on defects because it's a shithouse topic, but I'm curious as to how many people from here (if any) got pulled over yesterday for inspection. Seems to me they were having a blitz around the Wantirna area because a mate got done yesterday by the same Knox TMU car that got me earlier in the day. And no, it wasn't Pettett.

Also saw a few modified cars pulled over yesterday on the way home from dinner lastnight, bonnets popped.

I drove through Knox yesterday (and nearly every other day for the past 5 months) and still had no hassles.

The only time I've ever had a run in with police in that area was when I was parked at a school at night (looked suspicious) and they realised that I was driving manual on an auto license.

I guess I'm just lucky.

A couple of my mates got done over the weekend, I knew this was going to happen so my car stayed locked in the garage.

So much for the big crackdown on drink drivers over the easter break...trust the coppers to grab anything they can. Rats.

Left the GTR parked in the garage over Easter. Figured it would be safer given the bad press imports get.... especially over the break.

AU Falcon?

I thought they would be a little old for the police by now?

I got pulled over on monday. I bought the car 2 weeks ago with a roady and still copped a fine for 300 buck for drivin a unroadworthy vehicle.

Only reason I didn't get defected is cos I was on my way to the airport and was in a rush.

It was a RBT on Kellets rd near stud. There was a couple of skylines there getting done too.

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
